Ivan Trevino

Ivan Trevino is a Mexican-American composer, percussionist, teacher, and arts advocate. Recognized around the world for his contributions to percussion literature, Ivan’s music has been performed across five continents in 25 countries. His music distinctly threads indie-pop sounds with a contemporary classical aesthetic, and his body of work spans storytelling, singing marimba players, cello rockers, and an ever-present social consciousness. His newly commissioned works include music for The Juilliard School, The San Diego Symphony Orchestra, and Grammy-winning quartet, Third Coast Percussion. He is a multi-recipient of the Percussive Arts Society’s International Composition Contest, and in 2020, was the featured composer on NPR’s Performance Today. Ivan currently serves on faculty at The University of Texas at Austin where he joyfully teachers a studio of undergraduate and graduate percussionists and music creators.
