I am Carla Peña Romero, a professional chamber musician, culture entrepreneur, and freelance cello teacher.

In 2013, I began my Bachelor's degree at the Conservatori Superior de Música del Liceu in Barcelona with Professor Amparo Lacruz, where I received my diploma in 2017. I went on to graduate from the Royal Conservatoire of The Hague in the Netherlands in 2020, studying with Professors Michel Strauss and Jan-Ype Nota.

Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to play for esteemed musicians such as Peter Bruns, Wolfgang Boetcher, Gustav Rivinius, Heime Müller of the Artemis Quartet, the Casals Quartet, Clive Brown, Isabel Charisius, and Peter Nágy, among others.

I have extensive experience performing chamber music on stage, both as a member of the award-winning piano trio Trio Jakob, and as former member of the Azalaïs Quartet. I have given recitals at venues including the Kleine Zaal of the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, the Nieuwe Kerk in The Hague, TivoliVredenburg in Utrecht, and the HARMOS Festival in Portugal, with the support of the "Stichting Young Notables" foundation.

In addition to these performances,  with Trio Jakob we have also achieved a number of notable accolades, including winning the XVI CIM Les Corts chamber music competition in Barcelona, the II Concurs Cambra Románica in Andorra, and the La Follia Nuova International Competition in Italy, and the second prize at the Juventudes Musicales de España competition.

In 2021, I founded Pandora Studio, a cultural space in The Hague that serves as a platform for international individuals to connect through the arts. We regularly host various activities and events.
