A Laredo Community College music student recently received honors for being a top performer in Texas.
LCC trombone player Leonardo F. Galvan was hand-picked by a panel of judges from hundreds of players across the state to perform with other top community college music students in early February during the Texas Community College All-State Symphonic Band.
The performance was part of the 2011 Texas Music Educators Association Clinic and Convention held in San Antonio in early February.
"Laredo Community College is proud of our music majors for attaining such a high level of proficiency as musicians, and I am extremely proud of their accomplishments. They are a credit to their families, the college and the Laredo community," said Jose D. Compean, LCC music instructor and LCC Show Band director.
"It was a wonderful opportunity to have been chosen from more than 40 Texas community colleges," Galvan said. "From a few hundred trombone players across Texas, I was the one chosen to participate in the highly-acclaimed All-State Symphonic Band. This was the outcome of putting in so many hours of practicing, and it was worth every minute of it."
Galvan is a current LCC sophomore music major and a member of the LCC Show Band and the LCC Honors program.
Galvan is the son of Heleodoro and Consuelo Galvan.
