Edward Martin: Vihuela, renaissance and baroque lute.


Edward Martin (lutes, archlute, vihuela, and baroque lute) has studied with lutenists Paul O'Dette, Toyohiko Satoh, and Hopkinson Smith. He holds the position of Adjunct Professor of Lute at the College of Saint Scholastica. In 1984, he performed in the First International Lute Competition in Toronto. Having extensively performed throughout the United States, Martin has made recordings for Minnesota Public Radio, and these performances have also been broadcast on the American Public Radio network.

He is a member of various ensembles, including Minnesota Lute Quartet [MiLQ], a duo with tenor William Bastian, a baroque lute duo with lutenist Paul Berget, and Duo Chambure, with lutenist Phil Rukavina. In the summer of 1997 and 2001 he was invited to be the Renaissance lute instructor at the SFEMS Renaissance week at the Dominican College, San Rafael, California. He has frequently been guest lecturer, teacher, and performer at the American Lute Society's annual summer seminar in Cleveland, where he is on the Board of Directors.
