Meet Dr. Tommy Chiu — DSM’s incredible brass instructor and a true force in music education! 🎺✨
A native of Hong Kong now based in Boston, Dr. Chiu brings over a decade of international teaching experience and a passion for helping students thrive.

His students have gone on to succeed in region and all-state ensembles, top youth orchestras like BYSO and NEC Prep, and college music programs including BU, Boston Conservatory, San Francisco Conservatory, UMich, and USC. 🌟

When he’s not inspiring DSM students, Dr. Chiu performs throughout the Greater Boston area, serves as Principal Trombone of the Boston Civic Symphony, and regularly appears with regional orchestras across New England.

We’re so grateful to have him sharing his talent, mentorship, and musicianship with our community. 💚
