Nicholas Martin, Tenor Voice

"Oblivion" is the debut single record from the classically trained tenor Nicholas Marti. The London based, Gibraltarian tenor brings us his unique interpretation of the Astor Piazzolla’s "Oblivion" which stands as one of the most beloved pieces from the Argentine composer and bandoneon virtuoso, celebrated for transforming traditional tango into the modern and innovative "nuevo tango" style. Oblivion was released on the 6th December, 2024, on Azure Records. Nicholas Martin is an evocative lyric tenor, born and raised in the small fishing village of Catalan Bay in Gibraltar, inspired by blue skies and beautiful resonances which hallmarks his truly haunting and expressive voice. With a perfect mix of disarming honesty in tune with the emotion behind the passionate ballads, tangos, boleros and classical arias he sings, the blend of his ‘bel canto’ voice alternating between delicate and energetic repertoire is as arresting as impressive. Nicholas's impassioned performances include an extensive catalogue of songs rooted from his tradition. His expert command of the romantic Spanish, Italian and Portuguese languages since childhood is as authentic as the classic 1950s vintage presentation of his staging.
