Hi, I’m Ayla Southern. I’m a pianist and composer with formal performing arts training from Italia Conti Academy of Performing Arts in London and Redroofs Theatre School in Maidenhead. I love blending classical technique with contemporary composition to create evocative music. Outside music, I’ve built a varied career in hospitality and pet care, leading teams, coordinating schedules and delivering great customer service. I’m excited to apply my creative and leadership skills to new, collaborative projects in the arts.…Hi, I’m Ayla Southern.
