Thomas V. Diamond is a relatively unknown New Age composer, songwriter and PIANIST. His talent was discovered at a rather later stage in life when he was just a senior in high school.

The story begins during Thomas’s senior year in high school. Thomas discovered a piano hidden behind the backstage in the auditorium. Every day at lunch time he would sneak behind the backstage to play the hidden piano. By the end of the school year Thomas was playing at an advanced level.

The unique quality that sets Thomas apart from other musicians is the fact that he has no formal training and a gifted ability to compose and score his own music. His talent was developed playing by ear initially. His musical prowess was refined by improvisation, yet the playing style would captivate even some of the most skilled musicians. He had all his friends and family stunned by his abilities. For high school graduation he received a brand new upright grand piano purchased by a very close friend. His friend had recognized that Thomas had a unique gift and ability that would be wasted if the talent had not been developed.

To further his talent Thomas searched for any piano teachers that could help develop his talent however every single teacher he encountered felt they had nothing further to offer. Instead Thomas developed a unique system that taught himself how to read piano music. From there the rest is history.
