Justyna Jablonska is a Polish-born cellist based in Edinburgh

During the past decade, she has carved out an exciting career at the forefront of both Western contemporary classical and fusion music. A virtuoso cellist and an improviser, Jablonska is passionate about cross-disciplinarity, and experimental performance. An avid performer, Jablonska is recognised for her talent, versatility, and diverse repertoire. She regularly performs at classical and world music events across the UK and Europe.

In 2022 she released her first cross-cultural album with Carnatic violinist Jyotsna Srikanth "Songs for Cello and Carnatic Violin" funded by Creative Scotland. In the same year she premiered her first multimedia solo work "Lost and Found: A Cellist's Journey" funded by the Made in Scotland showcase.

In October 2023 Justyna obtained a PhD in creative music practice at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, which focused on collaborative work with a South Indian female violinist, drawing on Carnatic traditions and free improvisation. Her PhD was fully funded by the Carnegie Trust PhD Scholarship.
