Orchestra Performances This Month

Tracy Leonard, assistant principal horn, moved to Naples in 1990 from Miami, where she performed with the New World Symphony for one year. Previously she traveled in the United States and Europe with tours of The King and I, Into the Woods and West Side Story. A native of New Jersey, Leonard earned her B.M. degree from Indiana University and her M.M. degree from the Juilliard School.

Leonard has performed with the Meridian Arts Ensemble, the National Orchestra of New York, the New York String Orchestra and the Jupiter Symphony. Leonard was on a leave of absence during the 1995-96 season to play the national tour of Phantom of the Opera. Leonard enjoys spending her spare time with her greyhound and playing tennis. She has been a member of the Naples Philharmonic Orchestra since 1990.

Tracy Leonard is underwritten by Dr. & Mrs. John L. Hakes for the 2009-10 season.
