Tom Caudelle is a part of the new generation of passionate and curious versatile musicians playing jazz, classical music, improvised music… He plays saxhorn, euphonium, tuba and flugabone. He began the saxhorn with François Thuillier at the music school of Amiens and then entered Mr. Fritsch’s euphonium class in Paris at CNSM in 2011. In 2014, Tom obtained a euphonium bachelor degree with a unanimously awarded prize and a bachelor degree of pedagogy (DE). Tom plays all around Europe with different bands and french famous soloists, including Andy Emler, François Thuillier, Bastien Baumet, and Alexis Demailly. He formed the Brass Band “Big Funk Brass” (funk), and performs with Franck Tortiller (jazz), Abel Chéret (song), Elephant Tuba horde (jazz), and the Paris Brass Band (classical). Given the lack of repertoire for his instrument, Tom wants to bring new pieces to life. In 2014 he premiered the “Concerto for saxhorn et orchestra” by Pierre Jansen and “Back and force” (for saxhorn and piano) by Andy Emler. Tom is a tuba professor at the Maurice Ravel conservatory in the 13th district of Paris and at the Bourg-la-Reine conservatory.
