Matthew Mulvihill has been dedicated to the trumpet since 2015, but has been involved in music for as long as he can remember. Raised in Albert Bridge, Nova Scotia, Canada, Matthew is in the Bachelor of Music program at Mount Allison University, New Brunswick, Canada, studying trumpet under Matthew Ross. He has performed with various national ensembles, including the National Youth Band of Canada and the Jack Long National Honour Band of Canada. He is currently the principal trumpet in the New Brunswick Youth Orchestra and the Mount Allison Symphonic Band, a member of the Capers Big Band, Mount Allison Jazz Ensemble, and has performed with the Tutta Musica Orchestra in New Brunswick. He has held the position of principal trumpet for the Nova Scotia Youth Wind Ensemble, Cape Breton Second Wind Community Band, and Cape Breton Orchestra in previous years.
Matthew has received a national gold medal from the Royal Conservatory of Music of Canada in trumpet, as well as gold medals in both trumpet and piano for Atlantic Canada. He is also a recipient of the Nova Scotia Talent Trust fund, and has been supported by Jeunesses Musicales Canada, both of which aid emerging artists from Nova Scotia and Canada in achieving excellence in their artistic journey. In addition, Matthew is a recipient of the Mount Allison University Marjorie Young Bell and Mary Emerancy Pickard Bell Scholarships.
Matthew hopes to continue his musical studies in trumpet performance after his undergraduate degree.
