About Tom B.
Hello, I am here to help you with your goals, your vocal needs, and with suggestions for your future. I sang for 25 years as a professional Opera Singer, including the Metropolitan Opera in New York, and in Europe in Rome, Frankfurt, London, Stockholm, The French Riviera, Amsterdam, and throughout the United States.
I have taught at several colleges in Illinois where I live, and one of my college students went on to become a finalist in the second year of American Idol and was a top ten contestant and toured with them and went on to his own solo career. I have students singing musical theater and pursuing opera careers.
I have a lot of understanding about healthy vocal technique, and musical style and will work with you to help you develop your own best use of your voice, whether for school musicals, church choir or soloing, singing professionally in concert and opera. If you have areas of concern I can help you with many of those and have many references and colleagues to help in your best interest.
