Victor Campbell is a pianist from Camaguey, Cuba, whose playing moves fluently between Cuban jazz, timba, classical technique. Victor Campbell is a pianist from Camaguey, Cuba, whose playing moves fluently between Cuban jazz, timba, classical technique, and the New Orleans musical vocabulary he has spent years absorbing since moving to the city in 2019. He trained at Cuba's National School of the Arts and first came to New Orleans in 2012 through the Louis Armstrong Summer Jazz Camp, a visit that, in his own words, changed his life. The New Orleans Jazz Museum describes him as moving effortlessly between a blues solo, a Cuban timba montuno, and a classical selection within the same set. Chucho Valdes, the legendary Cuban pianist, predicted in 2019 that Campbell would revolutionize Cuban jazz piano. He has since performed with Delfeayo Marsalis and the Uptown Jazz Orchestra, contributed to the soundtrack of the film Sinners, which went on to Oscar recognition, and become one of the most talked-about young musicians in the city.
