Peter Zlotnick
I am fortunate to serve as the Principal Timpanist for the Greensboro Symphony and the Winston-Salem Symphony. I am also the Principal Timpanist for the Salisbury Symphony and substitute with the North Carolina Symphony and Charlotte Symphony. In chamber music settings, I have played with the Philidor Percussion Group, Amphion Percussion, and many others. I also play regularly with small groups on timpani, keyboard percussion, drum set, and other percussion instruments. I love artistic and interdisciplinary collaborations - please contact me if you have ideas!
