“Steinway represents everything I strive for as an artist: an unflinching dedication to beauty and unparalleled artistry... there is simply no other piano for me.”
Jorge Mejia
Featured in Billboard Magazine's “40 under 40” and “Latin Power Players” lists, classical pianist and composer Jorge Mejia defies easy categorization. His impassioned performances and evocative compositional style are enriched by his role as a leader in the Latin music world, infusing all facets of his work with a keenly global perspective.
This coming spring, Sony Music will release Jorge's latest album, featuring 25 preludes for bilingual narrator, piano, and orchestra, composed and orchestrated by the artist. Jorge's idiosyncratic exploration of the form includes interspersed spoken vignettes, which inform and color each of the preludes. The album features Jorge as solo pianist with the Henry Mancini Institute Orchestra, and is produced by Grammy Award-winning producer, Adam Abeshouse.
As President of Sony/ATV Music Publishing Latin America and U.S. Latin, he oversees publishing operations across Latin America and the U.S. Latin market, with offices in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Miami. Jorge has been instrumental in guiding Sony/ATV Latin to become the leading music publisher in the Latin industry, with a record-setting 15 consecutive ASCAP Latin Publisher of the Year wins, as well as multiple Billboard Publishing Corporation of the Year, BMI Latin Publisher of the Year, and SESAC Publisher of the Year awards.
In 2016, Sony/ATV Latin became the first Latin publisher to win the “Triple Crown of Publishing” - Publisher of the Year awards from each of the three major performing rights organizations: ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC. Under Jorge's leadership, Sony/ATV has just repeated that feat in 2017. Sony/ATV currently owns or administers over 3 million copyrights by such artists as The Beatles, Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, Luis Fonsi, Nicky Jam, The Chainsmokers, and Bob Dylan, among many others.
Jorge serves on the boards of the Florida Grammy chapter, Nu Deco Ensemble, and the Latin Songwriters Hall of Fame.
