 ral national and international competitions\, highlighting his victory at 
 2021 Cleveland International Piano Competition\, and his 3rd Prize at XVII
 I International Chopin Piano Competition (and the special award for the Be

 er Majesty the Queen Sofía the prize for the Best Student of the chair-\,
  and he is also Master in Piano by Mannes School of Music in New York City
 \, where he spent 3 years under the guidance of Jerome Rose. Martín began
  his musical studies at the age of 5\, with his teachers Natalia Mazoun an
 d Ilyà Goldfarb. Before he was 12\, he had already been awarded first pri
 ze at numerous national and international competitions as 2005 Piano Junio
 r in Barcelona\; 2006 Antón García Abril in Teruel\; 2006 Santa Cecilia 
 Prize in Segovia\; 2008 City of San Sebastian\; 2008 Rotary International

 reer with more than 70 concerts all over the world\, performing in symboli
 c places for the world of music like the Carnegie Hall in New York\, the S
 untory Hall in Tokyo or the National Auditorium of Music in Madrid. In add
 ition\, he has released his first album ‘Chopin and His Master’\, prod
 uced by the artist and recorded at Fazioli piano factory in Sacile (Italy)
 . It includes works by Bach\, Chopin\, Liszt\, and Scriabin. He recorded t
 he repertoire developed during the 21/22 season. The album available on di

  year in which he will visit a large part of the world music scene. He wil
 l return in March to Cleveland -almost two years after getting the first p
 rize at Cleveland International Piano Competition\, as well as performing 
 in California and Canada in April. There will be many new apparitions in S
 pain\, where he will perform in numerous new cities throughout the year an
 d will return to Japan twice. Finally\, it’s worth noting that he will d
 ebut with orchestras such as the Hamburger Symphoniker of Germany or the N
 HK of Japan.\n\nMartin Garcia Garcia\, who feels a sense of responsibility
  and service to humanity\, reduces his challenges to each concert. No matt
 er the size of the venue or audience\, he understands there is a deep cont
 ent to offer to each person who has decided to come and listen to him.\nPr

 rp Major\nChopin: Grande Valse Brilliante Op. 18 in E flat Major\nChopin: 
 Polonaise Op. 44 in F sharp minor\nChopin: Two Grandes Valses Brillantes O
 p. 64\nChopin: 3 Grandes Valses Brilliantes Op. 34\nLiszt: Sposalizio from
  Années de Pèlerinage II\, “Italia” S. 161/1\nLiszt: Sonata in B min
 or S. 178\nThe majestic opulence of the balls of Europe's Aristocracy is j
 uxtaposed with the inner demons of a genius. Chopin's Valses and Polonaise
  will make you sway with their contagious\, pearly brilliance\, while Lisz
 t's epic Sonata will take you on a brooding journey of titanic proportions
  that is\, arguably\, the most cathartic experience of piano repertory.\n\
