Scarlett de la Torre is a musician, sound ceremonialist, and teaching artist whose work moves between concert stages, ceremonial containers, and indigenous communities across four continents.

Music came first. She was singing and playing piano before she could speak, and it has carried her through life as a source of healing, joy, and creative expression. She has delighted worldwide audiences at places like Summit at Sea, Necker Island, Onda Linda, Surreal Academy, and ceremonial gatherings across the Americas.

Her path as a teacher began through service. As an ambassador for Beauty for Freedom, an organization combating human trafficking through creativity and rescue operations, she brought instruments and music education to survivors at New Light in Kolkata, India. She developed a music program for displaced Syrian refugee youth at Elpida Home in Thessaloniki, Greece. She has collaborated with The Wonderland Project in Jamaica, where she provides music and ceremony as part of legal plant-assisted therapy for survivors of sexual assault and domestic abuse.

These instances have shaped her understanding of what music actually does in a human body.

Since 2018 she has taught adults with zero prior musical experience to sing and play Hundreds of people have moved through her music method to emerge as professional sound meditation facilitators, plant medicine and psychedelic therapy practitioners who can now use music in their practice, and embodied musicians who are now using music as a way to connect with the innermost parts of themselves. Music is a living force that belongs inside every person, and her life's work is helping people remember that.

Scarlett’s heart-mission is amplifying the voices of Indigenous wisdom keepers. She has supported the ceremonial tours of indigenous leaders from the Ashaninka, Huni Kuin, and Yawanawa peoples of the Amazon. That work continues today through her role as ambassador and creative director of the concert & marketplace vision for Mayu Mission, a registered 501(c)(3) supporting the Pachanta Cultural Center in Peru and a food sovereignty program with the Huni Kuin people. As a co-founder of Mama Ayni Collective, she works at the intersection of indigenous wisdom and high fashion, building relationships that move the fashion world toward greater awareness of where fibers come from, who makes them, and what it means to wear something with intention.
