Martin James Bartlett: Musical Responsibility, Cooking & the Fear of Being Forgotten | FORTE

I waited a long time to bring you this new episode....
Martin James Bartlett is a brilliant young concert pianist brimming with technical command and on-stage flair! I've been very lucky to meet him backstage before his recital at The Lansdowne Club, London, to talk to him for my podcast!
Martin took home the BBC Young Musician of the Year trophy in 2014 and has since embarked on a sparkling concert life.
