Welcome to the official website of Heartstrings. This site features the Chapman Stick music of Matt Rogers and Mark White. The Stick is a powerful fretboard instrument that is played piano-style, with both hands tapping the strings to sound the notes; no plucking or picking. The possibilities are endless and the sound is exquisite, like no other instrument around. Heartstrings specializes in romantic, classical, celtic, and pop stylings arranged in lush Stick duets. Mark White plays the 12-string "Grand" Stick, while Matt Rogers plays the Alto and SG-12 Stick instruments, which are tuned to a higher register to compliment Mark. The trademark sound of Heartstrings features rich chordal textures and ethereal harmonies. Feel free to get yourself acquainted with the magic sound of Heartstrings and let the music take you away.
