Martin’s stage performance consists of music and comedy. The comedy revolves around Martin’s supposed misunderstanding of the English language. Being new to Canada (1986) he finds it hard to understand our language, or so he would have you believe. He finds new meaning in old sayings. Martin’s first love is the piano, and when he touches the keys the high energy performance really comes alive. The repertoire consists of novelty songs and some traditional songs from his home country the Czech Republic. This comedy performance adds class to any event. Martin performs in a tuxedo and an added touch is to use a grand or baby grand piano for the performance.
