About Tuomas
I have transcribed orchestral works for the organ, as the sound of the organ is often near to that of an orchestra, and also vice versa. When making transcriptions, I take the original version into account but my goal is to find a suitable fresh sound for the composition concerned. I have also transcribed piano works for the organ.
