Tom is a brass instrument maker and repairer based in Hathersage, Derbyshire, UK. He specialises in french horn work, but can service, repair and restore all types of brass. His customers include freelance players and members of the horn section of a number of the regional orchestras.
Tom is also an active player. A member of the Sheffield Chamber Orchestra horn section and the Caccia Wind Quintet, he also plays occasionally for the Hallam Sinfonia and the Sheffield Symphony Orchestra.
He has developed four models of horn, two full doubles, a Bb/ C single, and a compensating design. He is influenced by the European tradition, inspired by innovative work by British and continental makers. His designs are the result of some years of development and experimentation, using top quality components. Individual instruments can be made to customers' specifications.
