Hello! I'm Matthew, a composer, pianist and tabla player with over a decade of hands-on experience. I'm a graduate of the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music and have also studied music in India since my childhood. My diverse musical background allows me to offer unique, tailored lessons with perspectives from both the East and the West. I have trained in both traditions individually so I am able to teach either of them in their authentic, undiluted form.

🎵 What I Offer:

Tabla Lessons:

-Learn from the ground up or refine your current skills.
-Master essential techniques and study how to play traditional compositions (kaida, rela, tukda etc.) in the manner of legends like Ustad Zakir Hussain.
-Explore the differences of various gharanas (schools) and understand their intricacies.
-Immerse yourself in the colourful world of Hindustani Classical music.

Music Composition Lessons:

-Learn how to express yourself through music by composing works that are unique to you.
-Study classical forms to understand the genius behind the greats like Bach, Beethoven and Chopin.
-Get personalized guidance for your original compositions, whether instrumental, vocal, or orchestral.

🎯 Why Choose Me?

-Experienced & Passionate: I’ve spent years immersing myself in the art of tabla playing and the discipline of composition, making me uniquely equipped to teach both worlds.
-Personalized Lessons: I’ll adapt each session to your specific goals, whether you’re a beginner or an advanced learner.
-Supportive Environment: My lessons are designed to be interactive, engaging, and encouraging—progress at your own pace!

🌟 Who Are These Lessons For?

-Aspiring tabla players, from beginners to advanced.
-Anyone wanting to compose music, work on existing pieces, or enhance their understanding of music theory.
-Anyone curious about blending Eastern and Western music traditions or learning either of them separately.

📆 Schedule Your Lesson Today!
Let’s unlock your full musical potential together. Whether you want to master the art of tabla, compose breathtaking pieces, or simply explore something new, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

Regardless of your level of knowledge and age, I welcome applications from those who feel enthusiastic about learning music, be it an elementary school child, an enthusiastic newbie, or a dedicated adult who is just starting out in music. In an atmosphere full of attention, support and enthusiasm, I strive to give everyone the most effective help in their development. 🙂

I also go home to teach on demand, but I also welcome students in the 12th district on a beautiful, renovated Bösendorfer piano.

***

My lessons are practice-oriented, in which musical skills development exercises, learning new works and creating one's own repertoire, improvisation exercises, and the establishment of the necessary theoretical / formal background are included.

For all my students, I think it’s important that at the beginning of our work together, we find, first and foremost, the path that makes music learning a rewarding, successful process.

I myself am currently primarily working as a concert organist and a doctoral student at the Academy of Music, Budapest. I graduated from the Liszt Academy Budapest and the Paris Conservatoire. I lived in Japan for a year, during which time I was able to fill the position of resident organist at the Kitara Concert Hall in Sapporo. My first solo album was released in 2020. In 2021, I won the First Prize and the Audience Prize at the 13th International Organ Competition in Toulouse, France. I regularly participate as a soloist in domestic and international symphony orchestras and choirs.

I really like teaching and dealing with people. During my more than a decade of teaching experience, I have been able to meet a wide variety of students from the age of 6 to the age of 70. I have very good memories of all my students. I lived in Paris for two years, a year in Japan, during which I was able to gain serious insight into the education systems of both countries. Building on my studies at home, my international experience has had a decisive impact on me and has shown me many new directions in music teaching.

I hope I piqued your interest. I look forward to hearing from you!
