He has appeared as recitalist and soloist with orchestras in Europe and Asia, and at over 30 colleges and universities. Leslie holds a degree in Sociology from Yale University. He studied piano under John Kirkpatrick. Graduate piano studies followed under Barry Snyder (Eastman School) and later with both Brooks Smith and John Perry at the University of Southern California.
