Martín García García typically takes the stage with three accessories: a bow tie, a small towel, and a lucky charm necklace. At the piano, he aims to "enjoy the moment," promising an unforgettable concert experience. Starting piano at age five in Gijon, inspired by his older brother, García later studied under Jerome Rose in New York. This concert showcases music that has shaped his life, featuring works by Chopin, Mompou, and Albéniz, reflecting his Spanish heritage. Supported by the Imhoff Foundation.
