About the Artist
Martin has been performing around the world since age 15. He expresses his diverse life experience through songwriting and production, creating sound pictures which invite the imagination to wander far and wide.
Teaching Philosophy
We learn from each other constantly and it is not simply about imparting information. The most valuable thing Martin can give as a teacher is the inspiration and ability to continue to learn for the long term.

Program Description
"Come gather round and I'll tell you a story. I've got no pictures so pay close attention, your imagination is key. Let me paint upon your reverie, a landscape you can close your eyes and see."

A selection of music and stories from around the world performed by two musicians and a professional storyteller. Travel back to the time of to the troubadour, the disinterested storyteller, the griot, the vagabond, the traveler who shares their experience with others through realm of the fantastic, through the fabulous. Martin's mission is to empower young minds in their own journeys through life and encourage an interest in literature, to encourage and inspire the journey to find their own voice, their own inner storyteller.
The performance can be focused for preschool and grade school age kids with sing alongs and audience participation. All original music composed by Martin Zarzar and stories from folk traditions inclusive of many cultures and nations adapted to a modern context by expert storytellers.
