I don't know how to love him : Andrew Lloyd Webber  (short extract)

Quite simply, Tommy Williams was one of the greatest trebles of all time.... yet never fully received the recognition that was deserved.

For those that already know his voice, no introduction is necessary; for those that don't, a rare treat is in store!  Words hardly do justice to Tommy's voice, so I won't even try! .. just listen for yourself to the three extracts from the CD.

A chorister at the Abbey School, Tewkesbury, Tommy went up to Malvern College, where he joined the Chapel Choir.  To complete his musical education, he was a Choral Scholar at St John's College, Cambridge.

In 1993, whilst at Malvern College, these private recordings were made by the 14 year old Tommy, accompanied on the piano by Grayston Burgess, his singing teacher.

His mother has very generously allowed these recordings to be issued, with all money raised to go towards the Collection, for which I am extremely grateful.

Panis Angelicus : Ceasar Franck  (short extract)

The sound quality of these recordings is excellent, but please remember they are private recordings and as such were not recorded by professional sound engineers.  Please also be aware there is a glitch of no more than a second or two at the beginning of track 1, but this in no way detracts from the performance.
