Congratulations to Seaman Matthew E. Fitzsimmons on his selection as the Naval School of Music Student of the Month for November 2020!

Fitzsimmons, a native of #Gaithersburg, #Maryland, enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 2020 to serve his country with his passion for music in a stable, career-based position that he could grow in personally and professionally.

Before joining the U.S. Navy, he attended Southern Methodist University, the University of North Texas, and Catholic University of America. He worked as a teaching artist for the Dallas Symphony Orchestra Young Musicians program and performed as a freelance trumpeter based out of the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

He has been a #trumpet student in our basic course for three months.

While at the Naval School of Music, he has benefited most from the brass band training. With a mostly classical background, it improved his commercial playing and improvisation. It also removed him from his comfort zone with stage presence, putting him in a position where he rapped for the first time during the final performance.

He holds a Bachelor of Music from Catholic University of America and a Master of Music in Trumpet Performance from Southern Methodist University.

His musical influences are Ryan Anthony, Tom Hooten, Pacho Flores, and Doc Severinsen.

His hobbies include reading, working out, cooking, hiking, and talking about the meaning of life.

"Bravo Zulu" to Seaman Fitzsimmons on this noteworthy accomplishment!!
