FULL RANGE PRODUCING

Thomas Koppel's skills embrace the whole range of the craft - from writing big symphonic scores to an extremely effective use of synthesizers which made him Keyboardist Of The Year 1996. He has an extraordinary relationship with musicians in Los Angeles as well as Scandinavia, and has worked with legends like late Ben Webster (known from recordings with Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington), Ricky Lawson (Michael Jackson), Kevin Ricard (Stevie Wonder), Ray Fuller (Quincy Jones), The Stars Of Faith, Niels Henning Ørsted Pedersen, Sinikka Langeland, and many others.
His own natural instruments are keyboards, from piano (as a teen-ager he was a classical piano soloist), to organ and even accordion which he treats with rare sensitivity and spirit. With the keyboard as the media, he creates outstanding, hand-played bass and drum tracks.

VOCAL PRODUCING

Thomas Koppel is an extraordinary specialist at vocal production and recording. Besides the influence from his wife, legendary singer Annisette, and two highly talented, singing dughters, his skills may origin from his teenage years, when he was a trainer for the opera singers at The Royal Opera in Copenhagen.
His own high-level output does not leave much room for producing other artists. However, he has assisted several younger artists like Danish CATBIRD, now nominated for 2 Danish Music Awards: female singer and producer. Thomas is willing to, as much as his other activities allow it, work with truly dedicated and talented artists.
