My music at REDCAT

My music will be featured in Stephanie Nugent’s piece “Yes is Not Passive” being performed at REDCAT in downtown LA. The event is the annual CalArts Winter Dance and it is a huge honor to be a part of it. Here’s the bio I wrote for the program:

‎”After obtaining his undergraduate degree at FSU in music composition and vocal performance, Paul Matthis moved out west to muck about for seven years before finally applying to the MFA program at CalArts for the exact same thing. He’s scored films, commercials, and TV pilots, sound engineered everyone from the Sex Pistols to Totally Radd!!, sang in seven awful bands and one good one, and has composed brilliant pieces for contemporary dance performed in Florida, New York, and now Southern California. Paul enjoys long walks on the beach, the Oxford comma, and writing bios in the third person.”

Dates are 16 and 17 of December. It’s a good feeling.

Things from me

So hey, I’m getting my masters at a really good art school, at which I am surrounded by many crazy talented folks. Thus I made this page, so anyone can go to one location and see a few projects I’ve done over the years. It took forever and I’d really like you to mosey over and click around.

I’ll also be posting works I’ve done through the school as I obtain records of them, and do my darndest to remember to post about them on this blog. Below are two collaborations with the Sharon Disney Lund School of Dance!

The Next Step is to Go Back, with choreographer/dancer Lindsey Lollie.

The Lamp Piece, with choreographer/dancer Michelle Sagarminaga.
