Andy's interest in composition first took flight while studying with Ken Jandes at the American Conservatory in Chicago while Andy was in high school. While studying as an exchange student at the University of Munich, Andy Tecson performed on tenor and soprano sax with several bands that toured throughout Germany. Upon returning to Chicago, he was a member of Steve Goodman's band, Howard Levy's band and the Jump in the Saddle Band. His interest in jazz, composition and worship soon led him to devote his musical interests solely to composing, arranging and leading jazz worship services. His other profession, practicing law with Chuhak & Tecson, P.C. in Chicago, helps him to serve boards committed to providing services to families and individuals, including Community Care Options, Lutheran Child and Family Services of Illinois, and the Cornerstone Foundation of Lutheran Social Services of Illinois. His commitment to contemporary sacred music is also reflected in service on the board of Soli Deo Gloria. Learn more about Andy at www.churchjazz.com/about.php
