Mathew is originally from the La Hermosa barrio in San Benito, a small town found in the Rio Grande Valley in Deep South Texas. Much of the population in this region is underprivileged and Mathew’s family was no exception. After learning how to make the most of limited resources, he has turned to using his unique, speech-impedimented voice to uplift the work of other underrepresented Latinx artists and collaborators from the Rio Grande Valley. As an award-winning composer, Mat has collaborated with various educators and musicians throughout the nation. His passion for composing and conducting led to conducting world premieres with various student ensembles at the state and national levels. He has conducted his works at The National Flute Convention, ClarinetFest, and the Texas Music Educator’s Conference. His music has been celebrated by conductors and ensembles at various events in Los Angeles, Austin, Oklahoma City, the National Conference of Percussion Pedagogy, New Music on the Bayou, and at The Midwest Clinic in Chicago. His music has been reviewed in journals such as Percussive Arts Society’s Percussive Notes and the International Clarinet Association’s The Clarinet. His piece Into the Void: A Study in Disembodied Consciousness was awarded first prize in the SATB Chorus and Percussion (3-5 Players) Category of the 2015 Percussive Arts Society Composition Contest. Mat is an aspiring media composer where he focuses on writing music primarily for video games and films of varying length. Notable projects include the Ari’s Journey Original Video Game Soundtrack available for streaming and purchasing on various platforms. [1]
