The music of Matthew Schreibeis, which spans orchestral, chamber, and vocal works and includes a series of compositions for traditional Korean instruments, represents a personal musical vision characterized by vivid color, imagination, and a clear sense of drama. His works have been performed throughout the US, Europe, and Asia by the Albany Symphony and David Alan Miller, New York New Music Ensemble, Hong Kong New Music Ensemble, Oberlin Contemporary Music Ensemble, Mivos Quartet, ensemble mise-en, sopranos Tony Arnold and Jamie Jordan, violinists Lina Bahn, Yvonne Lam, Patrick Yim, and Sini Virtanen, and pianists Eunmi Ko and Daniel Pesca, among many others. His Albany Records portrait CD, Sandburg Songs, features soprano Tony Arnold, Zohn Collective, and conductor Tim Weiss. His music is also available on the New Focus and Sinnara labels.

Honors include the Charles Ives Fellowship from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, the Camargo Foundation Fellowship; commissions from the Hanson Institute for American Music, Seoul Foundation for Arts and Culture, and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas; grants from the Ditson Fund of Columbia University and the Center for East Asian Studies at the University of Pennsylvania; and residencies at MacDowell, Yaddo, Copland House, Virginia Center for Creative Arts, Brush Creek Foundation for the Arts, and Kimmel Harding Nelson Foundation. American Composers Forum sponsored a portrait concert of his chamber music in Philadelphia.

Deeply committed to cultural exchange, he lived and worked in Hong Kong for seven years at a pivotal moment in the city’s history, from 2016 to 2023. In Hong Kong, he received major research and artistic grants from the Hong Kong Research Grants Council (GRF Grant) and Hong Kong Arts Development Council (Project Grant) and brought together dozens of composers and performers from around the world to present The Keyboard in the 21st Century, the first—and only—international contemporary music conference in the history of Hong Kong Baptist University. His recent multimedia work, Neon Sounds, reflects on Hong Kong’s evolving streetscape and identity by pairing historic neon lights with music.

Matthew Schreibeis began his musical studies in Pittsburgh and received degrees from the Eastman School of Music (B.M.) and the University of Pennsylvania (Ph.D.). He has taught composition at the soundSCAPE Festival in Italy and Toolbox Percussion’s International Creative Academy in Hong Kong and China and has lectured and given masterclasses throughout North America, Asia, and Australia. He serves on the faculty of the Peabody Conservatory.
