Welcome Tom!

Tom is an alumnus of the University of Kent and achieved a scholarship for music performance in clarinet and saxophone alongside studying for his degree in business. He has accumulated several years of professional-standard performances with the local Abraham Darby Showband whilst a student, the University of Kent Symphony Orchestra when living in Canterbury and as a soloist.

Most recently, Tom was asked to return to the University of Kent Symphony Orchestra to perform Shostakovich’s 9th Symphony in the Canterbury Cathedral. Other venues include the Royal Albert Hall, Birmingham Symphony Hall, Llangollen International Eisteddfod, and various Royal Colleges of Music around the UK. Tom has been fortunate enough to have met, played with, and listened to some of the best performers in the world in clarinet in saxophone. A particular highlight was meeting and being in conversation with the world-renowned saxophonist Jess Gillam MBE during a rehearsal in Canterbury with the Frisian Symphonic Wind Orchestra from the Netherlands in 2019.

Tom looks forward to welcoming new beginners and existing players to learn with him at Deakin Music.
