Biography

Jada Campbell is a classical pianist whose musical experience spans solo recitals, concerto performances, chamber music, and orchestral ensembles. Her performances across the United States, France, and Italy reflect a musical life shaped by both individual expression and collaboration.

Jada earned her Bachelor of Music in Piano Performance from the Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore in 2021, studying with Brian Ganz. Her training encompassed solo repertoire and ensemble performance, providing a foundation for her work on the recital stage and alongside fellow musicians.

Her solo appearances include performances at Weill Recital Hall in New York through the American Protégé International Piano Competition in 2016 and at the annual LINKS concerts at the Kosiakoff Center in Laurel, Maryland, from 2017 to 2019. Her performances with the Redmond Tech Orchestra include Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 and Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, recordings of which are featured on this website.

Chamber music has been a significant part of Jada’s musical experience. She performed in a piano quartet in Cremona, Italy, in 2017, with repertoire including works by Mozart, Mendelssohn, and Turina, and in a piano trio at Baltimore’s Cohen-Davidson Hall in 2018. In 2019, her piano quartet performances in Valdeblore, France, included music by Bartók, Bloch, and student composers. Her festival experience includes the Cremona International Music Festival and the 2019 Zodiac Music Festival in Valdeblore.

From 2018 to 2020, Jada served as an orchestral pianist with the Peabody Modern Orchestra and the Peabody Wind Ensemble. These experiences extended her collaborative work beyond small chamber groups to the larger textures and shared demands of orchestral and wind ensemble repertoire.

Her competition honors include first place at the senior level of the Florida State Music Teachers Association Concerto Competition in 2017; first place in the American Fine Arts Federation’s “Golden Era” of Romantic Music Competition in 2016; second place in the American Protégé International Piano and Strings Competition in 2016; and fourth place in the Cremona International Piano and Strings Competition in 2016.

Alongside performing, Jada founded J.C. Piano Studio in Parkland, Florida, where she taught from 2015 to 2019. Working with children ages six to fifteen and adult students, she combined weekly piano lessons with technique and music theory, encouraging both musical growth and an appreciation for music. During her leadership, the studio grew from four to ten students over two years, and students achieved success in local and regional competitions.

Jada currently resides in Seattle, Washington, and performs throughout the Puget Sound region.
