Professor of Practice in Percussion
Ivan Trevino is a Mexican-American composer, percussionist, teacher, and arts advocate. Celebrated as one of the most influential composer-percussionists of the 21st century, Ivan’s music has been performed on five continents in over 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 Eastman Wind Ensemble, and Grammy-winning quartet, Third Coast Percussion. Ivan serves as Assistant Professor of Practice at Butler School of Music at University of Texas at Austin, where he joyfully teaches a studio of undergraduate and graduate percussion majors.
