Reviews

«Entertainment, quality, and rigor are becoming the hallmarks of Edgar Martín and his Why Is It Special?»

Revista Melómano          

«The maestro Edgar Martín delighted the audience, providing generous doses of humor mixed with rigorous musicological explanations, yet accessible to all types of audiences.»

Revista Ritmo – Ferrer Molina          

«Worthy of note was the conducting of the young maestro Edgar Martín, who clearly defined the melodic lines of the work and the contrast between the movements.»

Crónica Norte – Miguel Sánchez          

«Edgar Martín delivered a passionate interpretation, clearly romantic in spirit, energetic in parts and deeply melancholic in others. After a slow introduction, he launched into a bold reading of the main theme in a flowing dynamic. His interpretation conveyed a meaning beyond the mere notes or melodies, breaking them apart and presenting them skillfully to draw out all their emotion, formal beauty, textures, dynamics, colors, and timbres, with the subtle touch of magic that comes from affection and love for what is being performed.»

Tarraco’s Culture Club – Luis Suárez          

«Many artists are dedicated to bringing classical music closer to the general public, but only one is capable of explaining Mozart’s ‘Jupiter’ Symphony using concepts such as Chuck Norris, Meg Ryan, and Little Nicolás: the Madrid-born conductor Edgar Martín.»

El Mundo – Fátima Elidrissi          

«In addition to being a great conductor, Edgar is an outstanding communicator, with a clear and relaxed style. The musicians participate, play, act, and sing, contributing to the success. The script is very well constructed and sprinkled with various musical examples. The concept is excellent, the maestro charming, and the audience’s response outstanding. After the explanations, the audience listened to a solid performance of the New World Symphony with a renewed understanding.»

Catedrático RCSMM – Victor Pliego
