Valenzuela has led Bach Collegium in local premieres of historically informed performances of music of the Renaissance, early and high Baroque, and Classical periods. Under his leadership, the choral and instrumental ensemble has achieved local, national and international acclaim. He frequently appears as a guest director and performer with ensembles such as Bach Vespers at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in New York City, the Bach Experience at Marsh Chapel at Boston University, and Emmanuel Music in Boston. He also serves as Director of Music and organist at All Souls’ Episcopal Church in San Diego. Valenzuela holds a Ph.D. in Musicology from Claremont Graduate University.
