Tony came out to Rhode Island College on October 15th to solo with the RIC wind ensemble and do a masterclass. He made an immediate and lasting impact on the all the students he worked with (not just the tuba players). The student body was not only affected by his great musicianship but his genuine personality and sense of fellowship.
If you college teachers, out there, are thinking about a clinician, I would highly recommend Tony. If you are in his area, get to know him (if you don't already), you'll be better for it.
As a high school student who attended said clinic, I couldn't agree more. Tony brought a whole new perspective to tuba playing and even after such a short time with him, I noticed improvement in my playing.
Tom, it was one of the best weeks of my life. It was nice getting to know you; everyone there treated me so kindly. I can't wait to go back and just HANG! TC
