iii Biographical Sketch
Alto and tenor saxophonist and arranger Thomas P. “Tommy” Newsom was born in Portsmouth, Virginia, on February 25, 1929. He studied at the Peabody Conservatory and Columbia University Teachers College. Newsom was a member of the United States Air Force Band dance band, the Airmen of Note, from 1953 through 1956, with whom he toured Europe and North Africa. During the 1950's he also worked as a studio musician in New York.
With Benny Goodman he toured Latin America in 1961 and the former Soviet Union in 1962; he recorded with Goodman’s big band in 1962, 1964, and 1967. He also recorded with the Ruby Braff and Marshall Brown swing sextet in 1962. That same year he joined NBC’s music staff and from 1963 played in the band on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, becoming its assistant conductor in 1968. Tommy Newsom stayed as both arranger and performer for a full thirty years with The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson until its final broadcast on May 22, 1992.
Tommy Newsom’s arrangements and performances can be heard on recordings of Doc Severinsen, Billy Butterfield, Benny Goodman, Boots Randolph, jazz/Brazilian guitarist Charlie Byrd, as well as Newsom’s own projects. He continues to perform, arrange and record, working with various jazz and symphonic ensembles.
iv Scope and Content Note
The Tommy Newsom Collection comprises full scores and orchestral parts for 267 titles, arranged for dance band, symphonic orchestra, and various smaller ensembles. The collection includes manuscripts and printed and photocopied materials.
The collection extends over fifty years of Tommy Newsom’s work, from arrangements of dance band music in 1947 to arrangements for trumpeter Doc Severinsen’s recording in 1999. Most of the music dates from the thirty years Newsom spent arranging for the The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Many of the selections were arranged for featured performers such as vocalists Vic Damone, Crystal Gayle, Patti Page, Paul Anka, Joe Williams, Glen Campbell, and Dianne Carroll; trumpeter Doc Severinsen; drummers Buddy Rich, Louis Bellson, and Duffy Jackson; trombonist Urbie Green; saxophonist Boots Randolph; and Newsom on tenor sax. A few arrangements in the collection are not by Newsom and are credited accordingly.
