Ivan Trevino

The 2025 Pacific Percussion Day's guest artist was Mexican-American composer, percussionist, teacher and arts advocate Ivan Trevino recognized around the world for his contributions to percussion literature. 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.
