Oliver Martin graduated from Chichester University with a Foundation Degree in Instrumental and Vocal teaching and have also gained a BA (Hons) in Music with Instrumental and Vocal Teaching.  Before this Oliver was at Our Lady of Sion School in Worthing where he gained three A-levels in Music, German and French.

Oliver’s first instrument is the cello which he has been playing for fifteen years.  Oliver also plays the piano and is a keen singer.  Oliver’s voice is both Counter-tenor and tenor.

Before moving to West Sussex five years ago, he lived in Munich, Germany for four years, where he was fortunate and honoured to study under the principal cellist of the Bavarian Radio Orchestra.  Oliver’s time abroad enabled him to become fluent in German.

Prior to this, when Oliver was eleven, he was awarded a music scholarship to Warwick School.

Music has been a big part of Oliver’s life and he has been in many orchestras and choirs over the years including being a member of the West Sussex County Youth Orchestra and the Angmering Chorale, with whom he was lucky to be invited to sing in the Carnegie Hall in New York in January 2007.

Oliver has recently become a member of the Sussex Symphony Orchestra and is delighted to be performing his first concert with them on 14th March 2009.
