Martin has studied percussion in various countries in Africa and the Caribbean and has specialised in multiple cultural percussion-styles. Despite his playing and approach being heavily influenced by rich traditions and styles, Martin refused to be pinned down by them.
Due to his theatre-background and tenacity, he has developed himself into an autonomous percussionist and teacher of percussion with characteristic ideas, new methods and refreshing approaches.
Previous block Martin lead the percussion course of a very enthusiastic group. Their
performances are not included in the live program of the MIC-weekend, but you can watch three of their songs on this page.
You can find all courses by Martin here.
