Biography

David Charles Martin studied at Huddersfield and then at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. He was awarded a Gulbenkian scholarship to study composition for dance with Robert Cohen. He was principal music teacher at Queen’s College in Harley Street, London for some years, eventually leaving full-time teaching to spend more time composing.

David Charles Martin has spent over then years refining and systematically extending new techniques of composition. He has created a new integrated language in which detail, process and form all imply each other. He nearly always turns music into drama. Unusually among contemporary composers he often writes pieces that are funny.
