Tomer Eldor, a multifaceted musician hailing from Tel Aviv, has emerged as a trailblazer not only in jazz, world, vocal, and theater music - but also in immersive, cross-modal, and interactive musical experiences. As a composer, arranger, pianist, and vocalist, who traveled around the world and deeply absorbed music genres from the Middle East to the Himalayas and Argentine folklore, Tomer embodies a diverse musical journey that is deeply rooted in collaboration and the breaking down of traditional barriers between stage and audience.

Tomer's musical journey began amidst the harmonious backdrop of his childhood, as the brother of Broadway musician Oran Eldor. From the age of six, Tomer attended art school, and his passion for music led him to perform with jazz ensembles and participate in national operas by the tender age of 11.

Tomer's formal education at the Thelma-Yellin School of Arts and The Israeli Conservatory of Music in Tel Aviv served as a springboard to work with the greatest musicians and artists in the country and the world. Throughout his journey, he has founded, led, and produced numerous musical projects at large scales. 

At just 16 years old, Tomer showcased his talent at the Red Sea Jazz Festival and embarked on a US tour with his a-cappella group, presenting original compositions in "Lyla." 

Tomer is dedicated to doing good with music, as he orchestrated a successful fundraising campaign, raising tens of thousands through a special concert series and album recording project featuring new arrangements of "The 16th Lamb," with support from Yoni Rechter, the original album's composer.

Tomer's passion for collaborative creation and the expressive power of vocals culminated in his unique acapella album, "Umami," featuring all-original compositions for six voices in Hebrew.

Today, Tomer is based in London, where he traverses the globe, leaving his musical mark at renowned jazz festivals like the EFG London Jazz Festival, the Red Sea Jazz Festival, Discovia Festival and numerous prestigious international jazz venues. 

Tomer Eldor's musical journey has been marked by meaningful collaborations with notable musicians in both jazz and world genres. His creative partnerships have included luminaries like NOA (Achinoam Nini), Mira Awad, Shai Maestro, Ofir Benjaminov (TATRAN - Grammy Winner), Ofri Nehemya (Avishai Cohen), Seckou Keita, Tony Kofi, Byron Wallen, Ligia Piro & A-Saideira Big Band, Maya Yahav Gour (Dutch National Opera), and Noga Ritter. With each collaboration, Tomer continues to expand his musical horizons and leave an indelible mark on the global jazz scene.

In addition to his notable collaborations and performances, Tomer's passion for immersive and interactive music experiences shines through in his current projects, "MUZE COLLECTIVE" and "MUZE VOICES." These projects break down the traditional boundaries between artists and audiences, inviting active participation and collaboration, creating a truly unique and inclusive musical journey. Tomer Eldor remains dedicated to pushing the boundaries of musical expression and fostering connections through music, cementing his place as a visionary in the contemporary music landscape.

His performances have graced the stages of New York's Mezzrow, Fat Cat, KGB Room, and NuBlu, as well as San Francisco's Black Cat and SF Opera House. In London, he's left his imprint at Ronnie Scott's, The Forge, Sofar Sounds, and Night Tales. Further afield, he's made waves in Buenos Aires with the A-Saidera Big Band and Chorinos, in South Korea at Club Evans, and in Hyderabad, where his band ToKa was featured by the Western Music Foundation and the national Hindu Times newspaper.
