Since his first professional engagement as a restaurant pianist at just 14, Jamsheed Master spent years perfecting the craft of playing by ear before classical training and a composition degree. First attracted to the piano by his mother, also a by-ear player, and early Liberace recordings, his vast musical influences are channelled into composing for theatre, arranging for concerts and an array of work on Broadway. His knowledge of the genre is astonishing and his talent for it takes him all around the world, both as a piano bar entertainer and a concert performer.
As an orchestrator and music arranger, Jamsheed's work appears in concerts and events across the globe including La Soirée, La Clique, Adelaide Fringe and The Brighton Festival. His arrangements are featured by artists as diverse as Le Gateau Chocolat and as mainstream as Demi Lovato.
Also an established composer creating music for video games, his music appears across the Disney Sing It game series, 67 titles of Sony's BAFTA winning Singstar, the smash hit Facebook game Office Daze and Activision's cult hit Guitar Hero. As an industry leader in music data transcription and music development, his credits include several chart-topping singing and dance games.
