Hi, I'm Thomas, Pianist Composer. A little bit about myself: Early on in my life I was heavily influenced by Hip-Hop music. I grew up listening to mid 90's - early 00's rap (i.e., Dr. Dre, Nas, Eminem, Tupac, Lil Wayne, etc.). Just before I turned 32 I began teaching myself how to play piano. Since then, I've developed a deep passion for classical piano music, being influenced by my favorite piano players of all time (in no particular order), 1) Sofiane Pamart, 2) Karim Kamar, and 3) Chilly Gonzales. Moreover, I've always loved and felt moved by Hip Hop beats that included piano melodies of some kind. Over time, I believe that this is how I developed my deep appreciation for and love of piano music.
