"His performance abilities are extraordinary, the combination of his flute virtuosity and the immediacy of his narrative presentation are stunning." -- Jeff Kowalkowski, The Milkwood Foundation
Trevor holds Bachelor's degrees in Music Composition and Music Education from Point Loma Nazarene University in San Diego, where he studied flute with Jill Coady and composition with Philip Keveren. He has also taught Aural Skills and Music Theory while a graduate student at University of Colorado at Boulder, where he studied composition with Richard Toensing and flute with Elizabeth McNutt.
While living in his native California, he worked as a score supervisor and session musician and, as is usually the case with professional musicians, waited tables. Since moving to Chicago, he has performed at Millennium Park and the Green Mill, as well as numerous other local venues. In addition to completing work on a CD project featuring the work of local composer Julia Miller, Trevor's short play The Family Album was produced in late April 2009 as part of Dream Theatre's annual Theatre of Women. In addition to a solo recital engagement this past June at the Unitarian Church of Evanston, he has performed with Chicago Opera Vanguard as part of the AIDS Quilt Songbook as well as their Chicago premiere of Mark-Anthony Turnage's opera GREEK. Trevor is currently performing in Dream Theatre's Jeff Recommended show The Black Duckling, for which he is a co-sound designer and composed incidental music.
He lives on the North Side with his cat, Frank, where he teaches private flute. And his studio has openings, by the way.
