Danny Teong is the first Singaporean to become a specialist in the practice and performance of historical trumpets, and has performed around Singapore and Europe with various musical ensembles like Red Dot Baroque (SG), Le Concert des Nations (ES), La Sorpresa (NL), Elbipolis Barockorchester Hamburg (DE), and Les Inventions (FR). He enjoys presenting the multifaceted nature of the trumpet through his own rhetorical style of playing which emphasizes on the variation of nuances in articulation and sound colour, especially with chamber music ensembles InDigo Baroque and Sua Dolce Maestà, which he co-founded.
Apart from the historical trumpet, Danny is also adept at the modern trumpet. He is currently serving as a trumpeter in the Singapore Armed Forces Central Band.
Danny is starting to be active as an educator, and has given masterclasses in Singapore and Japan on the historical trumpet and its style of playing, several of which were hosted by Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music. He also teaches private lessons.
