“I am an adult who studied classical piano for several years and was fascinated by, but very nervous about, trying to learn to play jazz on the piano. Matt is highly skilled at both jazz and classical piano and also has a thorough background in music theory. He is able to help me understand jazz music and develop jazz technique. He is a flexible, highly knowledgable, understanding teacher who has an amazingly friendly, comfortable, enthusiastic and absolutely non-threatening approach to learning whether he’s teaching jazz or classical music.” – Joanne R.
