Immerse yourself in the genuine fusion of visual arts and music as Sofia weaves her original artwork into her music performances. Meet Sofia Carrasco, a tenor saxophonist and visual artist from Arequipa, Perú.

Sofia's art is a personal exploration of what genuinely intrigues her about the human experience. Each piece reflects her fascination with people—their uniqueness, bodies, movements, fears, hate, love, and the varied ways they navigate life within society. While formally trained in classical saxophone, Sofia delved into the worlds of jazz and traditional Peruvian music. Having completed production and composition courses at Berklee College of Music and a master's in Jazz Performance at New Jersey City University, Sofia brings a unique blend of jazz and Peruvian influences to her work.

Honesty in creation is Sofia’s core value, and this authenticity echoes through her music and visual art. As you listen to Sofia play, you'll be transported into a world where Andean and Afro-Peruvian rhythms converge, creating world jazz music with a distinct rooted character. This is achieved by blending the expressive language of jazz harmony and improvisation with the grounded characteristics of Andean and African rhythms. While not traditional or folk music, Sofia maintains deep respect for tradition, acknowledging its crucial role in shaping the essence of her music.

As you engage with Sofia’s art, each artwork becomes a mirror, allowing viewers to see and recognize aspects of their own experiences and emotions. It offers a profound and authentic encounter with the depth and diversity of the human experience. It's an exploration that invites you to connect, reflect, and find resonance in the rich complexity of being human. Whether you experience the magic of her live concerts or own a piece of her authentic artwork, Sofia Carrasco invites you to join her on this honest artistic journey, where creativity knows no boundaries.
