Tom is an exceptional player! I was the orchestrator for a new show called The Astonishing Time of Timothy Cratchit. We needed to make a cast recording and Tom came highly recommended. He was absolutely magnificent! He played on all reeds for us including oboe which is very rare to find someone who can do that these days, and he did so masterfully. It was also such a delight working with him as he was respectful, attentive, and made every line sing! Tom is my go to person to recommend to everyone who needs a reed player!

I had a fantastic experience working with Tom on a project at Carnegie Hall in which he performed. His expert musicianship, joyful demeanor and great collaborative spirit made it a wonderful time for our team and the audience. I can't wait to work with him again!

Tom has performed with my band The Skivvies from New York to Columbus stages always bringing the highest skill level of technique, performance energy, and sense of humor. He is the utmost professional and can play several instruments beautifully.

Long-time Broadway/Regional conductor here. Tom is the BEST. His klezmer clarinet solo in our FIDDLER production was transcendent. You’ll never work with someone who knows as much about every different sound he can make with every single instrument. Plus, a top-notch fellow!

I have worked with Tom on several projects and he is the epitome of professional and artistic. From filming RuPaul’s Dragrace star Nina West in a fully virtual big band show “Heels of Horror” to covering wind parts in Sister Act the musical, Tom is adaptive and reflexive. Musical books aren’t known for their accuracy, and Tom takes the initiative to be fully prepared and accurate coming into rehearsals.
