Matthew McGarvey

As a Tuba player, I’ve trained myself to be a versatile sound. I’ve always loved music and the way it captivates you through sound. In my opinion my sound is serving the music. So I’ve learned many exercises, techniques, and studies to find a pedagogy that works for me. My passions don’t only fall in playing but teaching. Where I take the knowledge over time that's been handed down to me and give back to students waiting and eager to learn for growth.
