    About Leo T.

    (1)
    I am currently the Principal Percussionist of the South Dakota Symphony Orchestra and Principal Timpanist with the West Michigan Symphony. I have performed with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and served as extra timpanist with Lyric Opera of Chicago. I was also an Associate Member of the Civic Orchestra of Chicago from 2017-2021. I have been fortunate to share the stage with Yo-Yo Ma, Jamey Haddad, Cyro Baptista, Michael Ward-Bergeman, Mark O'Connor and others. As a teacher, my students have went on to earn placements into the Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestra and festivals including the Blue Lake Summer Arts Camp, and more! I have earned my Master's degree from Roosevelt University Chicago College of Performing Arts, and my Bachelor of Music from DePaul University. Additionally, I hold a diploma from the Interlochen Arts Academy.
