Musician

South Korean pianist and composer SongAh Chae is based in Valencia. Her music is shaped by literature, scripture, and landscape, creating soundscapes that are spacious, contemplative, and deeply lyrical. For Chae, music is ultimately an act of communication — a way of sharing reflection, emotion, and faith through sound.

Originally trained in classical piano, Chae moved toward jazz after discovering the rhythmic language and freedom of improvisation. She studied at Berklee College of Music in Boston (B.M.) and continued her master’s studies at Berklee Valencia (M.A.), where she developed a personal approach to composition — one that treats improvisation as part of the architecture of the music. Influenced by pianists such as Tord Gustavsen and Bobo Stenson, her work blends refined melodies with rhythmic vitality, moving fluidly between introspective passages and groove-driven improvisation.
