Acclaimed Spanish pianist Martín García García (Gijón, 1996) has captivated audiences in some of the most prestigious venues of Europe, America and Asia. His art continues to reach new heights and has been praised by prestigious figures such as Vladimir Krainev, Dmitri Alexeev, Arcadi Volodos, Dimitri Bashkirov, Joaquín Achúcarro and Tatiana Copeland (niece of Sergei Rachmaninoff). He has won first prizes in international piano competitions throughout his career, including his victory at the 2021 Cleveland International Piano Competition.  He finished in third place at the 2021 International Chopin Piano Competition, where he also received the special award of the Warsaw National Philharmonic Orchestra for Best Concert.

Martín’s rigorous musical education laid the groundwork and paved the way for his success. He graduated from the Reina Sofía School of Music, where he studied for a decade under the tutelage of Galina Eguiazarova and received the award for the most outstanding student of her professorship, which Her Majesty Queen Sofia of Spain presented. Afterwards, he refined his art with the renowned pianist Jerome Rose at the Mannes School of Music in New York, where he earned an MA in piano. His studies began at the age of five under the guidance of Natalia Mazoun and Ilyà Goldfarb.

In recent years, Martín has consolidated his reputation as one of the most brilliant pianists of his generation and has collaborated with prestigious orchestras, including the Symphoniker Hamburg, Warsaw Philharmonic, National Orchestra of Spain, OBC, Sinfonia Varsovia, Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra, NHK Symphony Orchestra, Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra, Brasília Orchestra, and the Lithuanian National Philharmonic Orchestra, among others. He has performed with world-class conductors such as Mikhail Pletnev, Vasily Petrenko and Andrey Boreyko.

The 2024-25 season has been of great importance in Martín’s career. He embarked on a sixth tour of Japan, where his recitals drew a total turnout of 25,000 spectators, reflecting his tremendous popularity in the region. During this time, he will also perform in Korea, Taiwan and Malaysia and will return to Colombia for a series of highly anticipated concerts. In Europe, he will perform several times in Germany, with concerts in Rostock, the Rheingau Festival, and Cologne, playing with renowned orchestras such as the Wiener Kammerorchester, Slovak Philharmonic, and Tokyo Symphony Orchestra.

His discography continues to grow with the 2025 release of a long-awaited album following the success of ‘Chopin and His Master’ in 2022 and ‘Even-Tide’ in 2024, which met with public acclaim. Martín’s commitment to his art is patent in his recordings and his focus on live performances.

With a deeply felt sense of responsibility and a commitment to serving humanity, Martín approaches each concert with great purpose and unwavering faith in the belief that music has the power to offer something significant to every listener, regardless of the venue size or audience.
