Matthew, eight years ago I found myself having to leave my job on a medical leave, not realizing that I would never return to a job that I actually loved. For most of those years I sat at home trying to find someway to fill the void in my life. Finally I started to venture into trying to find some instructional music books and DVDs. I must of spent hundred of dollars, almost to the point I was going to giveup on the idea. But I decide to try one more time and about a year and half ago is when I came upon your website. I can honestly say that I was hooked the minute I sat down with the first DVD I purchased. The more I practiced, the harder I found trying to get away from the lessons. Then I had to have DVD#2. I can't begin to tell you the inspiration that I've received from your DVD's. I find myself really tuning in to the music and even improvising with my own touch. I strongly recommend to anyone that is seeking to learn how to play the piano by ear or increasing their musical skills on the piano to look no futher. Finally I must add that not only go I get a lesson when I sitdown at my piano, I am inspired by the music that you have chosen to use in your lessons. I'm definitely looking forward to getting your next DVD, and I thank God for your anointed talents.

Matthew, I just wanted to take the time today, right now to thank you from the bottom of my heart that I love, I love, I love the way you have taken the time to break down every single thing in your lessons. I can see right now because I just started your lessons. I have purchased a few other dvds from other keyboard players or piano players and I have not got the information that I am getting from your dvds. Keep doing what you are doing. May the Lord Jesus forever be in your work.
Thanks Always,

Hello Matt! I just wanted to let you know that I absolutely love your FREE Weekly Piano Lesson Newsletters! They are filled with tons of tips that I can actually use playing the piano. I'm learning so many new things that have changed the way I play. I also bought Piano By Ear for Beginners Vol. 1 Instructional DVD!

Add one more accomplishement to your life! As a 65 year old senior, I had always wanted to play the piano by ear but never took the time for formal lessons. In my spare time, I did purchase books of "Learn to Play" but without actual instruction, was to no avail. However, after time with Piano By Ear, taught by Matthew, I can now pick out some of my favorite melodies from the 1940's and just about any song and play them using the chords with both hands. What enjoyment it has given me! To keep ones mind alert is most important. Try Piano By Ear...it really works!"

"Music is an integral part of Pentecostal Worship. The ability to play by ear is an asset that allows you to follow the movement of the worship service. Matthew has given my eldest daughter piano instruction and through his teaching she has learned to hear, play, and enjoy the piano. The foundations and principles that Matthew teaches are steps that anyone can follow. His knowledge of music and love for the Lord shines forth as he inspires you to use your talents for Christ!"

I have appreciated the variety of styles Matthew plays and teaches. He has a way of taking the complex sounding music and breaking it down in to simple techniques and yet the music still sounds great! I took lessons from him a few years back and gained a LOT from them. He helped me understand the idea of "mixing" chords which gives some really rich sounds. When I say mixing, I mean the left hand playing one chord or octave while the right hand adds a different chord that blends the two together. This technique is used a lot in the professional stuff! I would recommend anything that Matthew has to sell in the line of piano instruction. In fact, I have gone many times to him at church and asked for changes on a particular song that I had heard on a CD and he would show them to me or sit down and write them out right there with little forethought...just done strictly by ear! In fact, I posted a question about some changes on the discussion board and he emailed the chord changes to me the next day! God has definitely blessed him with the gift of music and it has certainly inspired many young people to want to learn more.
