Following the recent news announcement that Black Dyke solo euphonium player Daniel Thomas has become a Development & Performance Artists with the Geneva Group, he has also taken the opportunity to launch his brand new website.

Growing links

The Welshman is currently studying for his Masters at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, but has already gained a growing stable of students of his own who are benefiting from his experience and playing expertise.

The website, which will be regularly updated will now act as his first point of contact for prospective students, concert promoters and project leaders.

Exciting time

Daniel told 4BR: "Despite the current lockdown this has been an exciting musical time for me.

The decision to join Geneva Group as a Development & Performance Artist is one that has aided me greatly, whilst it has also enabled me to take the time to start developing the next phase in my playing career with Black Dyke and as a soloist and teacher."
