Thomas Isaac

Thomas started playing the cello at the age of six in Fontainebleau. Following a year of tutelage at the Hochschule für Künste, Bremen from internationally renowned cellist, Alexander Baillie, Thomas currently studies with Christoph Richter at the Royal Academy of Music, supported by a Leverhulme Trust Scholarship.

 

Thomas won first prize at the Norfolk Young Musician Competition, and recently won the Herbert Walenn Cello Prize at the Academy for a performance of Bach’s Cello Suite No.2 in D minor. He has performed in masterclasses with Tim Hugh, Marc Coppey, Steven Doane, Philippe Muller and Alexander Baillie.

 

As an orchestral musician Thomas has played principal cello with the Academy Symphony and Baroque Orchestras, the University of London Symphony Orchestra and at the LSO academy. Also a proficient baroque cellist, Thomas has played continuo in the Royal Academy/Kohn Foundation Bach Cantata Series. Recent performances include Schumann’s Cello Concerto with the Musique en Re Festival Orchestra, Haydn’s Concerto No. 2 in D major with the Academy of St Thomas, concerts at London’s Wigmore Hall and the Tivoli Festival Copenhagen with Rachel Podger, and chamber music by Colin Matthews at the BBC Proms, broadcast on Radio 3.

 

Thomas’s horizons stretch far beyond classical music: he plays trombone with Moriah, a band broadly based on Jewish Klezmer, which has featured as Band of the Month in Outline Magazine.
