Michael Allen Harrison, Jack Mortensen, Israel Annoh

Michael Allen Harrison delivers music to the heart. His classical contemporary style carves a distinct niche of timeless music that has connected with so many during his almost three decade career. Michael is known for his piano solo performances and recordings, his upbeat sound with his band , his work with inspiring vocalist Julianne Johnson, his skills producing and creating music for ballet, theater and film, his love for teaching and perhaps mostly known for his giving spirit. He was honored with a star on the walk of fame in front of the Portland Performing Arts Center for his artistic and community contributions to his beloved city of Portland Oregon. Michael’s unique brand of music ranges from movie scores to passionate arrangements for piano, orchestra, ballet, jazz, fusion, Smooth Jazz, Pop, New Age, and Adult Contemporary. Michael Allen Harrison’s CD, “Emotional Connection”, received a NASA Orbiting Certificate for air play in space on the space shuttle Endeavor.

On January 29, 1999, Michael was invited to perform in NYC at the United Nations premiering “Remembrance”, a tribute song to the 50th Anniversary of Israel’s Independence (which can be heard on his benefit CD “Seasons of Peace”, recorded for the organization “Season of Non-Violence”).
