Teaching
Teaching history and approach
As a student Tom travelled Europe in search of the best professors and this knowledge has greatly influenced his own approach to teaching. Firstly he looks to know what drives a student to want to improve and then help them achieve this by making their approach to the instrument as natural as possible, enhancing their base technique and allowing their own musicality to shine. Having started teaching at the age of 16 Tom has gone on to teach at many of the leading Music Conservatoires in Europe and the USA and is currently the Trumpet Teacher and Head of Brass at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm, Sweden. If you are interested to receive tuition from Tom for yourself or a chamber music group please get in touch via the contact form.
