David Trelles is a well established, Twin Cities based violinist. Inspired at an early age by a presentation on Niccolo Paganini, he began private lessons at the age of six. He received his Bachelor’s degree from the University of Minnesota under the tutelage of Sally O’Reilly and Mark Bjork, and his Master's degree in violin performance from the University of Wisconsin, under Felicia Moye. Upon graduation he spent the next decade teaching hundreds of students of all ages and levels, and giving hundreds of performances in private and public spaces. Now he's expanding his repertoire and pushing the limits to create new performance opportunities in unconventional spaces and reach new audiences. He has had extended engagements that include The Gnome Craft Pub, Bachman’s 140th Anniversary, and Bridgerton Tea at the Westin Edina Galleria.
