Matthew Monticchio Music

As a composer and collaborative pianist, I teach all levels and abilities, helping students grow in their musicianship, artistry, and life-long love and understanding of music that enriches every area of life. I hold degrees in music education and music composition from West Chester University and the Peabody Conservatory, respectively. I build on the fundamentals of scales, chords and harmonic knowledge to approach the rich tradition of music literature from the great composers of the past, while also fostering an ability to create music through improvisation and composition, encouraging and guiding the student in their own creative musical expressions.
