Marina Albero: From Pianist To Nomad Of Sound

Click the play button to listen

Today, the Spotlight shines On pianist and composer Marina Albero.

From Barcelona's vibrant music scene to the heart of New Orleans, Marina keeps finding new ways to push musical boundaries. Her album, A Nomad of Sound (Self Produced, 2024), brings together jazz, classical, and world music traditions in a blend all her own.

Marina has journeyed across continents and cultures—from her early years studying classical piano in Cuba to recent acclaim in Seattle, where she's twice been named Musician of the Year. Now she's taken her keyboards to New Orleans, collaborating with some of the city's finest players and even recording on Ellis Marsalis's personal piano.

Marina is here to share stories from her musical travels and give us a glimpse into her adventurous new album, where traditional jazz meets Spanish flamenco, Cuban rhythms, and even some fiery keytar solos.
