Tom previously studied at Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, where he was a multiple prize-winner, University of London - Goldsmiths College, and St Mary’s Music School, Edinburgh. Before moving to the Netherlands in 2020 he performed extensively in the UK as a soloist and chamber musician. He is also a committed music educator.
