Hello,
I am Antoni Tolmos and I continue to dedicate my life to my three great passions: Music, communication and people’s lives. If in reality, and according to what they say about me, I have any talent, this is communication<\/strong>.<\/h4>\n

God asked me in what way he wanted to communicate, and I asked him for a piano<\/strong>. He is my ally on stage to transmit my own music and that, in the words of the audience, it’s very emotional.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

My international experience as a musician, lecturer and university doctor has led me not only to use the piano, but also the microphone<\/strong> to explain and move with words. I never forget that I am an eternal learner<\/strong>.<\/h4>\n

The word family<\/strong> is the first in my alphabet, the second is generosity<\/strong>. Both deserve permanent attention. I have published sixteen record works as a pianist and composer and three books, have lectured in many countries, created and hosted television shows, mentored<\/strong> many aritsts and received numerous awards in my career.<\/h4>\n

But the most important thing, and as I always say to my university students, is: if I can make you have one thing left of me, you will not forget me.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

Would you like to contact me?<\/a><\/span><\/h4>\n

\u00a0<\/h4>\n
