His performance conquers the stage and delivers a mesmerizing experience.  He possesses the unique capability of expressing complex ideas and delivers deep emotional understanding of the musical landscape.
 
His music takes you away with elements of Jazz, Blues, and Rock n’ Roll, and then seamlessly switches to mid-stream contemporary music styles.  He transforms the musical experience by giving the listener more ways to relate to and understand the music as well as breaking the barrier between the artist and the audience, making the performance a more personal and interactive experience.

Matthew states that when people listen to his music, they open their minds up to new ideas and that his demonstration is the perfect start to such a voyage into music for the soul.  Matthew performs as if he is conducting an orchestra, bringing every performance to life with his incredible dynamic palette and knowledge of the instruments and repertoire. 
 
The year of 2010 marked a new direction for Matthew. He recorded his first album, "Exquisite Mind," which contained his first original compositions for piano and guitar. Quite recently, Matthew came out with his second album, "Mystery Man," which is a culmination of his composing yet, in different styles of music.  Matthew's own music has been influenced and includes Rag Time, Jazz, Blues, Pop, Rock n' Roll. He takes the audience on a journey to the heart of music.  His performance fulfilled with a great taste of his own piano compositions.  In addition to playing his own compositions, Matthew will include in his performance some of ol' time favorites that he has interpreted for the modern language of the keyboard.  Matthew delivers an attention-grabbing performance and enormous excitement.   This interactive experience should not be missed by all aficionados of good music and a soul!
