Music
My name is Matthew Savage, and I have been proud to teach music at P.S.52 since January 2018. I
hold a BA in Music from Kean University, and a MA in Music Education from Hunter College. Like our
students, my music journey began as an elementary school band student, and has given me memories
and experiences for a lifetime. I have been performing as a percussionist for the last decade with
groups such as the Staten Island Philharmonic, the Richmond County Orchestra, GOOD NOISE, and
numerous jazz and theater companies. Music has been a huge part of my life, and I hope to make it a
part of all of our students lives at P.S.52!
