Olivia Pérez Collellmir is a pianist, composer, and bandleader from Barcelona, SPAIN. Noted in The Arts Fuse as a "Spanish virtuoso" who adds "a flamenco touch to her chamber jazz". Collellmir performance highlights include playing on the soundtrack of Isa Bonita by renowned director Fernando Colomo, a solo performance at the 25th anniversary gala of six-time Grammy nominated Boston Baroque, touring with Spanish Grammy nominee Rosana Arbelo, performing at an honorary concert for the legendary Rita Moreno, and performances for United States Secretary of State John Kerry, and opera diva Renee Fleming.
Classically trained from a young age, Olivia is an honors graduate of Berklee School of Music and has won numerous awards at the school. She is now a member of the faculty at the Berklee Piano Department, and as a tribute to her heritage, she incentivised the formation of the first Berklee Contemporary Spanish Music and Flamenco Jazz Ensemble.
This fall she will be in the recording studio putting together her first album that will feature her original music.
