Bryan worked with us up until the wedding, checking-in and answering any questions we had in the year leading up. We chose the DJ package with lighting and then ended up adding on the strings for the ceremony & cocktail a few months later. Bryan provided planning documents that made it easy to share the vision for the vibe of our wedding. The strings were absolutely perfect and had a great modern collection. Our DJ on the day of the wedding was Ramses who was WONDERFUL! Guests raved about the music and his energy was immaculate. He did such a great job MC-ing without being too cheesy and kept everyone on the dance floor. The lighting made our room look even more beautiful! I would 100% recommend them to anyone!

Also, he provided great practice exercises, and great technical assistance to help the student become a better player. An added bonus is that he was great to talk to. Ask him about an opinion about a particular musician/genre/or his experiences in New York and you get a fascinating look of a working musicians. If you want to learn the electric bass or upright bass I suggest taking lessons from this man.

Matthew is an extraordinary teacher, and Studio V is an extraordinary place to learn.I have worked…read morewith other piano teachers in the past and there is no comparison. Where the other teachers focused on teaching how to play individual pieces, Matthew teaches how to play the piano. With a rigorous focus on developing proper technique and an understanding of the music, I am learning the skills that will truly enable me to play to my potential. He is a masterful diagnostician, focusing in on the student's individual needs and providing targeted exercises to overcome each challenge and promote growth and progress. I have come to piano later in life, with little prior experience. I feared my inexperience and age would be a barrier, but nothing could be further than the truth. Matthew has made me feel as welcome and valued as his most proficient students. If this all was not enough, Matthew composes very beautiful music of his own, that as his students we get to listen to, as well as learn and play. It is a really special experience. Studio V is not just a place to come for piano lessons, though. It is a place to join an expansive and welcoming community of people that share a love of music. I cannot recommend Matthew and Studio V highly enough.

2.5 years ago, I was looking to start taking piano lessons and came across Matthew's listing on…read moreYelp. I was skeptical of the uniformly amazing reviews; but emailing Matthew about lessons has been one of the best decisions in my life. Truly. Growing up, I spent 20 years playing the violin and had teachers of all levels. Matthew is hands-down the most effective music teacher I've ever had. He tailors his approach to each student's musical journey and can diagnose very quickly (and very accurately) exactly what each student needs. I don't just mean areas for technical improvement (though he has genius tips to make that "click" too). Matthew also makes his students better musicians--equipping them with the theory they need to understand the music, and the tools they need to better express themselves through the music. After 2.5 years with Matthew, I am a much, much better musician than I ever was before; and my piano abilities have developed way faster than I would've expected. I can't recommend Matthew highly enough for anyone who is looking to become a better piano player (or composer!). One final note about what makes Matthew unique. He's an incredible human being and true friend to all of his students; he's not just a "piano teacher." And when you join Matthew's studio, you are welcomed into a vibrant and engaging family of musicians (of all levels and backgrounds). A gem in DC. Quit thinking about it. Studying with Matthew will change your life!

He is fun, patient, inventive, supportive and more gifted, as both a teacher and a musician, than I will ever be able to appreciate. To my son, in turn, Piotr is incredibly cool and simply awesome. He knows that Piotr is a classical guitarist who grew up playing blistering rock and roll, and to hear the two of them rock out on whatever song suits my son's fancy at the moment -- or whatever song Piotr thinks is a good challenge -- delights this mom to no end. And then to hear my son noodling around on guitar in his spare time -- a hobby that brings him great joy -- well, let's just say that it's nice to never have to pester him to practice. I'm endlessly grateful to have such a huge talent working one-on-one with my son, and I look forward to seeing my son continue to evolve as a musician and expand his musical horizons -- no doubt eventually beyond rock. Thanks, Piotr!

He did an amazing job: He was so chill and easy to work with leading up to the event, he really got a good sense of our music taste, and he was excellent at reading the room to play the right songs at the right time. He has also a really simple system for sending him songs you like and want to play and was super organized throughout. We got so much positive feedback from our guests about how good the music was--and it showed, because the dance floor was full all night! I cannot recommend Evan enough.

He was great at communicating and figuring out what type of music we would want. The best thing is the request list that can be done online.

Evan is wonderful and we could not recommend him more!

We were planning our wedding during the pandemic and things were constantly uncertain as to whether or not the wedding would be able go to on. Iman and DJ Kia had routine calls with us to check-in and offer advice. We knew we could trust their opinions and flexility during the uncertain times. On the day of the wedding, DJ Kia was so involved with every aspect of the ceremony and reception. He knew exactly what to do, when to do it, and how to make our wedding day an unforgettable experience. He literally orchestrated our ceremony processional and was making sure everything was running smoothly. Everyone felt at ease walking down the aisle because DJ Kia was there to send them off. We were lucky enough to have Iman MC our wedding, and believe us when we tell you he knows how to put on a show. The dance floor comes alive with Iman on stage and everyone was out of their seats and dancing the entire night. Our cocktail hour ended up going over schedule, which pushed back our reception. It was no worry though, because Iman was there to quickly restructure the timeline and ensure everything ran smoothly. Even with unexpected issues, we felt completely at ease knowing he had us covered. He is such a genuine person who truly cares about his client's happiness. We also used Night Owls for our video production and working with them was a truly pleasant experience. They captured every aspect of the wedding beautifully. In just a few short weeks, we had our trailer and wedding video created, both of which were edited to our liking. They were extremely patient with us throughout the process and the end result is videos we still can't stop watching! Thank you to Brandon and the team at Night Owls for all of their hard work. We also want to give a special thanks to Wake on the sax, Farzan on the drums, and Cyrus on the cello. These three gentleman made the music come alive and our guests could not stop raving about how talented they were. My wife and I still talk about just how great it was working with Exclusively Entertainment and we would absolutely recommend them for your events!
