Bio
Matthew Briggs is a doctoral candidate and teaching assistant at Florida State University in Music Composition. Also an avid educator, he was previously an Adjunct Instructor of Music at Texas Christian University (TCU) and Music Theory Instructor at Southwestern Adventist University (SWAU) and will continue to teach theory and composition at the collegiate level. Matthew has enjoyed performances of his works around the country, and has recently been accepted to several national and international festivals and conferences. Equally at home in acoustic and electronic mediums, his compositional style is diverse, ranging from modal, semi-minimalist work to the avant-garde. He particularly enjoys exploring the world of microtonality, with much inspiration coming from the overtone series.
Matthew began playing piano at the age of six, and it still remains a large part of his life; since then he has also picked up guitar, bass, trumpet, and other instruments with varying degrees of proficiency. He is a member of Society of Composers, Inc. (SCI), ASCAP, Pi Kappa Lambda (Music Honor Society), and Delta Phi Alpha (German Honor Society). Some other interests include fishing, collecting old books, and language study.
