Thomas Tilton
Button Box, Zither, Alphorn, Vocals
Thomas, a high school counselor, is the band's leader (and
apprenticing webmaster!). He has a life-long affinity for the
language and culture of the alpine countries, and holds a
Masters Degree in German. His study of Germanics took him
to Regensburg, Germany, where he developed his love of
"true" alpine music. He has since collected and arranged
hundreds of traditional (and not-so-traditional) pieces and
provides AlpenFolk with the material which has made the
ensemble so popular. Thomas plays numerous instruments
and is the driving force behind AlpenFolk.
