Tommy LoMonaco runs T.O.M.I. (theater opera music institute) if memory serves, but I don't know if he's still with us. I auditioned for him long ago in the mid 80's at the T.O.M.I. studios on West 72nd St. Manhattan. He runs (ran?) the studio with his brother Tony(?).
I didn't study voice with him - I just wanted to get on "the boards" & work on scenes...he was nice enough to let me in on a couple of workshops. So I cannot elaborate on the technique issue - but at least you have an idea of the shop he ran (runs) in NYC. I can assure - he doesn't remember from Adam, Bill or George - for that matter. Good luck!
