Hi there, Iām Matthew and I love playing the guitar in my free time. I am passionate about the classical guitar and its ability to play an eclectic range of music. I started with electric guitar before really getting into Classical and Brazilian guitar after meeting my teacher in Melbourne.
Nowadays, I adore Brazilian and Spanish guitar music (my favourite all-time artist is the great Baden Powell!), however I am also a fan of new music from modern indie and psychedelic bands - including King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, Mild High Club, Mac DeMarco etc.
I enjoy creating classical guitar reworks of my favourite modern tracks. The classical guitar is really such a special instrument, with its intimate tone, range of colours/timbres and polyphonic nature allowing it to distil down multi-instrumental tracks into standalone solo pieces.
I hope you enjoy the music - I try my best to provide the arrangements in both standard notation and TAB to get more people playing this brilliant instrument. If you would like one of your favourite songs arranged for the guitar, please feel free to contact me.
I play Altamira guitars.
