Overview

I am a solo pianist who plays a wide range of styles including jazz, new age, rock, and standards. I also have a large body of original instrumental compositions. I can perform music suitable for any type of function. I hold a BA in music from Kutztown University. I have been playing piano all my life. I own a full 88 key portable piano, if one is not present at a venue.

Perfect addition to our event

Dan was absolutely wonderful in every way! He was a perfect addition to our organization’s holiday party, where he played a great mix of holiday favorites, classics, and original compositions. He added wonderful ambiance to the event, and our guests raved about him! He arrived early and was a joy to work with from start to end. I highly recommend him!

Accompanist for Audition

Mr. Matz did an excellent job accompanying my daughter on the piano for her vocal audition at Penn State. He practiced with her in person prior to the audition and sent her recordings of the songs to practice with. He is an excellent piano player, and I highly recommend him for any professional event.

About

I am able to play instrumental piano music for several hours at a time for any occasion. I know many, many songs from old standards to modern pop. I take requests and can learn just about any song. I can provide light dinner music, or something that is more "out front". I can also sing, if that is needed. I have written a large number of original compositions as well. These pieces include both instrumentals and more contemporary songs with words.
