Presented by the University of Southampton Music Department

Camila Cortina Bello is a jazz pianist, educator, musicologist and composer. Born in Havana, Cuba, she has taken the stage in her home country and has performed for audiences around the world. Her music intends to re-imagine the sounds and rhythms of her original Cuban roots through the lens of jazz, classical and world music.

Camila studied classical piano and ethnomusicology in Havana. In 2010, after finishing her studies, she moved to Singapore, where she performed as a pianist and music director for different international bands across South Asia, including Indonesia and Malaysia. She relocated to Boston in 2018, as a recipient of the Berklee World Tour Full Tuition Scholarship, to further her studies in Jazz Composition and Global Jazz Performance.

In 2023, Camila was an awardee of New Music USA’s ‘Next Jazz Legacy Program,’ which supports emerging women in jazz. Since then, she has shared the stage with Paquito D’Rivera, Miguel Zenon, Terri Lyne Carrington, and Dianne Reeves, among many others, and performed at jazz festivals around the US and South America. Her first EP, Sonera, was released in 2023 and it is currently available in all streaming platforms.
