About Tommy
Tommy Scott spent his childhood in the Welsh mountains and was based for many years in the Cotswold hills, near Bristol in southwest England. His piano style creates a unique blend of classical, rock, jazz, blues and latin influences which is both melodic and exciting.
Tommy studied classical piano as a child and was branded as a prodigy when he first burst onto the jazz scene at the age of sixteen, playing at many international festivals across the UK with his trio.
Tommy’s performing career began when the great US pianist Joey Calderazzo invited Tommy to sit in with his band when Tommy was just 13! Joey also introduced Tommy to British pianist Jason Rubello, with whom he studied privately for a year.
In his early teens, Tommy went to as many live gigs as he could and got to meet many of his heroes such as Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Ray Brown, Cedar Walton, Roy Haynes, and Elvin Jones.
Another significant moment happened when he became friends with the Panamanian pianist and composer, Danilo Perez. Danilo invited Tommy to go and study with him at the New England Conservatory in

Since starting Piano Lessons in Cheltenham in 2004, I have had the extraordinary privilege of helping many people experience the joy of making music.
My philosophy as a teacher is that, whether you are a full-time professional or an avid hobbyist, music should be done for joy. The desire to create music is to me the very best reason to do it! At the same time, building the skills to make music can be challenging, especially without the right guidance from an experienced, caring expert. I aim to provide the guidance students need to make the progress they want to make, so that they can fully experience the joy of making music.
I take pride in teaching people who are eager to expand their minds, talents, and skills.
Whether your goal is becoming a world class player, or just a part-time music enthusiast, I can help guide you there. My thoughtful musical diagnosis, and individually tailored straight forward approach blends theory, technique, and creativity.
If you already have some facility at the keyboard I can provide you with the help, critique, and guidance needed to help you to fulfil your potential.
