#AmsterYardSoundsJazz: Milena Casado

To conclude our 2026 live jazz series curated by Marta Sánchez, Amster Yard Sounds, Milena Casado brings to the stage her distinct fluid improvisations and deeply personal compositions. Stay after the show for a reception with the artist!

Milena Casado is a rapidly rising figure in today’s jazz scene, earning widespread attention for a bold artistic voice shaped by expressive trumpet work and emotionally driven writing. Hailed by The New York Times as “a revelation” by LA Times and WBGO as an artist to watch, she has collaborated with leading musicians such as Terri Lyne Carrington and Vijay Iyer, and has appeared at major international venues including Carnegie Hall and the North Sea Jazz Festival. As a bandleader, she fronts a dynamic quintet and recently released her striking debut album, Reflection of Another Self (Candid Records), a deeply introspective work exploring resilience, identity, and personal transformation.
