Biography

They called him “Canada’s Prince of Piano”—but Martin Mayer is far more than a title. He’s a musical storyteller who doesn’t just play notes—he sculpts landscapes with sound, bridging continents, cultures, and hearts through his unique blend of instrumental fusion. With a style that seamlessly weaves together classical precision, jazz fluidity, pop flair, and cinematic drama, Mayer’s music is at once bold and breathtakingly intimate.

Born in the Czech Republic and raised in Canada, Martin’s journey began not in a concert hall, but in a fourth-grade choir practice, where the glint of a piano key first captured his imagination. That spark ignited a fire. At just 18, he took out a $35,000 bank loan—not for a car or college, but to produce his dream concert. A 20-piece orchestra. A full recording crew. No safety net. The result? A live album, a national award nomination, and an international tour offer that would launch his career into the stratosphere.

That offer led to a historic 16-city tour across China — the largest of any artist in the country’s modern era at the time. From Beijing to Guangzhou, every seat was filled. Every show, sold out. And millions tuned in on Chinese national television to watch a young Canadian pianist set stages ablaze with emotion, energy, and elegance. That tour earned him the nickname that stuck—and the global following that never stopped growing.

From sold-out festivals in Taiwan and orchestral collaborations in Prague, to collaborating with Grammy winners and charting on international radio, Martin Mayer's resume reads like a roadmap of musical milestones. His albums—including Live in Concert, Unbreakable, and the holiday hit Carol of the Bells—have reached ears in over 200 countries, lit up 16,000 retail soundscapes, and reached 20 million listeners globally

But Martin’s true artistry lies in connection. Whether performing for thousands or recording alone with his piano, he plays with the unshakable belief that music speaks the language of the soul.

In his forthcoming studio album, Mayer revisits his musical roots with The Solo Piano Collection, a deeply personal retrospective spanning 25 years of his career. The accompanying sheet music book invites pianists to play the works as they were performed—flairs, improvisations, and all—furthering the intimate connection he shares with his audience

Offstage, Mayer continues to give back—supporting cancer research, arts education, autism awareness, and community causes that echo his deep gratitude for the audiences who’ve shared this journey with him.

Martin Mayer doesn’t just perform. He invites the world to feel—then leaves them forever changed!
