Uziel Colon was born into a musical family though his curiosity for music did not come about until the age of 13. Although he enjoyed music, it wasn't until the age of 15 when Uziel enrolled himself in music classes at the Music Conservatory of Puerto Rico and devoted his free time to practicing and perfecting the skill of performing. His influences at the time included Ludwig van Beethoven and Fredric Chopin. He quickly became a well-known performer throughout his hometown of San Juan, Puerto Rico, and thus began his professional career performing in private and school events. In 1999, Uziel was recruited by the Berklee College Summer Program in Puerto Rico and was offered a scholarship to study at Berklee College of Music, where he went on to earn a Bachelor of Music in Composition in 2003. Whilst developing sharp classical abilities, Uziel became strongly influenced by the prevailing jazz scene. Works by Michele Camilo, Chick Corea, Keith Jarrett and Herbie Hancock impacted his repertoire, and thus unlocked new ideas into his work.
