LEONARDO PINEDA — SHORT BIO

Leonardo Pineda is the Music Director of The Orchestra San Antonio (TOSA), the resident orchestra of the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts. His official TOSA debut — featuring trumpeter Pacho Flores — closed with a three-minute standing ovation and four curtain calls, prompting Voice of San Antonio to praise his "dynamic and expressive leadership." In 2025, Pineda made his sold-out Carnegie Hall debut with Ensemble Connect and was awarded the Distinction Prize as a Carlos Prieto Conducting Fellow, selected from 250 international applicants. He serves on the faculty of Bard College.
