Tom Hall
Tom Hall (baritone & tenor saxophones & music educator) has been an active professional musician since his teens when he played a weekly gig at the Ebony Inn with Ohio Hung Jury, a Washington, DC funk band. He moved to Boston in 1976 to attend New England Conservatory, where he studied with Joe Allard, {{m: Jaki Byard = 3798}}, {{Jimmy Guiffre}}, {{George Russell}}, and {{m: Ernie Wilkins = 11362}}. It was during these years he first studied free improvisation. He was the co-founder of Ensemble Garuda, whose members included percussionist {{Sam Bennett}}, trumpeter {{m: Frank London = 8848}}, and Brazilian cellist Jaques Morelenbaum.
