BIO

Matthew is an experienced musician, vocalist and pianist/organist. He both plays and sings to accompany your service with live music; be it simply hymns and songs or for religious ceremonies; the Ordinaries of the Mass, Responsorial Psalm, Gospel Acclamation, Song of Farewell and more while also filling moments of silence with appropriate instrumental music and providing prelude and postlude music where necessary. 
 
As Matthew accompanies himself, he has the freedom to control duration, timing, dynamics and tempo in a way that can reflect both your personal preferences and respond to the needs on the day. Any piece of music can be made to fit any point of the service seamlessly and the structure can be rearranged to achieve the best effect at the right time. Matthew is always happy to learn a new musical piece upon request and can transcribe an accompaniment of any piece of music in order to perform it live to suit any preference.
