    Tomás’ sax playing is excellent. His note choices are perfect for jazz inflected fusion or straight ahead jazz. His tone is intimate and emotional. Perfect for chill or blues or hip tunes. I love working with him. His phrasing is melodic and memorable. Highly recommended.

    Tomás spends the time extending my arrangements with a combination of original improvisation and parallel melodies and harmonies derived from my piano playing. Everything sounds organic, as if we are playing together in the same studio space, which is the best of all results. He’s a joy to work with. Highly recommended.

    Tomas has done it again! I’ve worked with him several times, with each project focusing on a different genre, and he nails it every time. Wonderful tone, emotive articulations, and his interpretations make every track better. His recorded WAV files are clean and noiseless, making them easy to work with. He’s my go to saxophonist here. Highly recommended!

    Tomas is a gem. He plays all kinds of jazz, from all eras, and can play rock and blues as well. Extremely easy to work with and finishes the job with enough extra material to plug in other spots or replace certain riffs. Listens to all suggestions and implements them. Fabulous end result. Highly recommended!

    Excellent saxophonist and good listener. He has tackled two difficult arrangements so far and done a great job. I plan to keep hiring him for my sax needs.

    Tomas has yet again delivered exceptional work. Not only was the track produced exactly how I prescribed but he went the extra mile in providing an alternative take. He is quick to respond and a phenomenal Saxophonist; I would gladly work with him again.

    WOOOOW is all I can say about Tomas. This guys is a legit world class sax player. Based on his sound reel I knew he was a talented guy, but the takes he sent me for my song far surpassed my already high expectations. He absolutely NAILED IT!! And on top of his super soulful playing the recording quality was top notch. I didn't have to add a single plugin in the mix! 10/10!!!

    Tomás is a very special artist, one you don't come across often. We were looking for something you might hear on a Blue Note record and he recorded an breathtaking performance. We asked for sad and he gave us the throes of depression. His expertly controlled embouchure brings out just a touch of breathiness and granularity, reminding you he's real. He took our project and ran with it, fitting in perfectly with our other instruments. Words don't do his performance justice.

    I commissioned Tomas to come up with some deep 120bpm jazzy sax solos for one of my songs and he did not disappoint. He underpromised and over delivered in getting me exactly what I asked for, and then some. A professional saxophonist that he is, giving me studio sounding recordings - I couldn't have asked for more, and am looking forward to working with him again in the near future.
