Feedback from Jeffrey Allen (LA vocal teacher) on “I’ve grown accustomed to her face” video

Matthew,
Just listened/watched your face book video. My goodness how wonderful you and your sister (was that Dorcas on piano) sound together. Your voice and your attention to the emotional elements of song have really grown in power and subtlety. I'm glad to hear your hard work has paid off so handsomely. There is great music making going on there. Congratulations!

I hope all of your musical ambitions are fulfilled in 2008.

Cheers!
Jeffrey Allen

FEEDBACK FROM PER BRISTOW (RENOWNED LA VOCAL TEACHER)
Hi Matthew,

Very nice.  Thanks and congratulations! I really like your approach on, for example, “All The Way” when you sing it lightly in the beginning.  It becomes very intimate and a truthful expression of the words.  Good work!  

Best,

Per

From You Tube viewer “Asalistics” after listening to the album and watching the videos

I wish I had your voice, so I can show the world how nice

That’s what I’m talking about, great rendition, I’m a big fan now

Aw, thank you to for replying once again, I am very amazed at your voice. To be honest, I like it better than Josh Groban. By the way, are going to have any show in California ?

Am a big fan of Joseph the movie, so I thank that I was able to hear the song titled “Better than I” from someone like you , because you sang it differently and wonderfully, so I bow.


From Rani Singgam, local jazz singer

Dear Matthew,

Thank you for your email. It's great to meet you. Thank you for all yourkind words about my work.

Congratulations! It is really exciting to record an album, what more a fifth!!! I have listened to part of the album. You sound fantastic, and yes you picked the perfect person to produce it!! The band is awesome too.I am definitely going to get a copy for myself and will help to promote it
to my friends for sure.


From Jaco Pieterse, vocal teacher)

Dear Matthew,

It certainly sounds if you are doing what you learnt. Diction is good and good voice placement. Continue in this way and your voice will grow into a fine instrument. Congratulations!  Keep in touch and all the best with your singing career.

Regards
Jaco


From Lisa Popeil, Vocal coach from LA
Beautiful singing!  So full of feeling.  I don't have a way to let people hear it outside of my workshops but I'm happy to play it there.  Do you have a YouTube video up? That would be nice!
Take care and stay in touch...
Lisa


From Jeremy Monteiro, producer of my 5th album “My Romance”
Congrats Matthew! A good review by S.Y. Whang is something to be proud off because he has a very discerning ear and is not afraid to speak his mind. Well done. Sorry I couldn't come for your gig tonight. I was stuck in Johor until close to midnight. Nice trip though. All the best!, Jeremy
