Martinez Akustica

Chilean-born, Victor Martinez Parada is recognised as one of the world’s finest classical Latin-American avant-garde solo guitarists. An accomplished performer, composer and teacher, he has an extensive list of music in his repertoire, ranging from classical to modern to South American folk to avant-garde. He has composed pieces for solo guitar, ensembles including duos, trios, quartets, sextets and also for guitar & ensemble and guitar quartet & symphony orchestra.

With his sons, Andro and Dauno Martinez, he led the family guitar trio, Martinez Akustica who performed professionally from 1997 until 2012 throughout Australia and internationally. All three members played six string acoustic and electric guitar, bass and also used their instruments as percussion and vocal beat box. One minute they played in unison, the next in harmony, then across and against each other. It was calm then chaotic, beautiful then forceful. It was difficult to fully describe them until you’d heard them. Their interplay and understanding that flowed through them was inspiring, endearing and infectious. They truly captivated their audience as they stretched each other’s ability with a flourish here and an astonishing variation there. These incredible players were on the must-see list for anyone who played a guitar, anyone who aspired to playing guitar and anyone who enjoyed listening to guitar.

Each of the members now have individual careers. Victor Martinez Parada continues to perform nationally and internationally as a soloist. Martinez Akustica perform occasionally by special request.

Some Career Highlights:

Sydney Opera House in a series of concerts as headline and support in 1999, 2000, 2001, 2003, 2005, 2006 and 2007.

Throughout the Australian Festival Circuit including:
Byron Bay Blues and Roots Festival, Peats Ridge Eco-Festival, Thredbo Jazz festival, Thredbo World Festival, The Rocks Aroma Festival, Live Events Festival, Femme Funk Festival, Cronulla Jazz Festival, Bondi Beach Latin Festival, Brunswick Street Mall Festival (Brisbane), Woodford Festival (Queensland), Bellingen Global Festival, Ecofest (Townsville), Ecofest (Cairns), Brisbane Festival, Adelaide Guitar Festival, Darling Harbour Latin Fiesta.

Martinez Akustica toured throughout Australia with artists such as: Ozomatli, Santana, Julio Iglesias, Gypsy Kings, Buena Vista Social Club, Michael Franti, Diana Krall, Andy Summers Trio (The Police), Concrete Blonde, Jesse Cook, George, Human Nature, George Benson, Brian Ferry, The Beach Boys, Anthony Callea, Richard Clapton, Tuck n Patty, Blind Boys of Alabama, Angelic Kidjo, Robert Randolph and the Family Band, King Solomon Burke, Concrete Blonde, Jackson Brown, Thirty Odd Foot Of Grunts (Russell Crowe Band) and Machine Gun Fellatio just to name a few…

Martinez Akustica also had a strong representation in the corporate world including clients such as communications Giant Telstra, Red Carpet Movie Premieres, The Mo Awards, Australian of the Year Awards, events for Yamaha Musical Instruments, Australian Federal Labour Party and The Australian Prime Minister and many more.

International Tours:

Represented Australia at the 2005 World Expo in Aichi,Japan & Represented Australia at the 2010 Shanghai World Expo ,China

In April/May of 2008 Martinez Akustica went on a very successful promotional tour to Tokyo, Japan performing to rapt audiences with 27 shows. Because of the huge response to the tour, in November of 2008 the trio went on a follow up national tour of Japan this time performing in Tokyo, Osaka, Kobe and Nagoya. The trio was extremely well received and performed at one of Japan’s most prestigious venues ‘The Bottom Line’ Nagoya, featured in national radio in Nagoya and Osaka with interviews and Martinez Akustica was added to their playlist. Together with the help of Austrade in Osaka and promoters throughout the rest of Japan, Martinez Akustica secured a strong future in one of the world’s biggest music markets. Because of the success of this tour, Martinez Akustica was asked to perform in April of 2009 throughout Japan. Victor Martinez Parada was approached by guitar manufacturing giant, Yairi Guitars, to develop the customised Victor Martinez Model. In July/August 2009 Martinez Akustica returned to Japan for a series of showcases resulting in Japanese distribution and release of their records through Buffalo Records.

In December of 2009 Martinez Akustica went on a Christmas tour of Japan. In 2010 Martinez Akustica toured Japan and performed at the Sapporo Jazz Festival and the Kanazawa Jazz Festival.‍ ‍

It is always an honour for all of your listeners to hear the detail in your vast style of playing. It was interesting to hear the crisp sound of the first video compared with the same music in the second sounding more subtle and subdued.

Thankyou for sharing Victor

This piece of incredible music brings deep felt tears to my eyes. Whatever weighs on a persons heart is brought to the surface by this melody. Tears can evoke & wash away sorrow. Music should stir the soul and this certainly does

A long and profound story followed with an equally long and specific sound structure. A big body of work Victor.

I was expecting a different sound, wind pipe somehow and found myself mesmerised by a middle eastern snake charmer motif. I can’t believe how much you resemble Dauno in younger images and a little of Banel and Andro. Family genes Hey

Fantasy on Elcondor pasa

Jenny Georgi

So many things to say, I fear I’ll forget some of them.

Firstly I am saddened that you were ridiculed back in the day. What small minded folks those people were.

Thank God for your willingness to experiment and interpret the classics in true Victor Martinez Parada style. We are all better off for it.

I definitely see now where your beautiful big family inherit their own uniqueness and creativity from, especially Dauno.

Most of us use such limited parts of a guitar, I know I do. Watching you firstly use all the positions up and down the neck creating a myriad of melodies & sounds to then demonstrate your percussion skills, not to mention that haunting, memorising flutter on the strings and then what sounded like an Indigenous instrument was out of this world.

You are a genius Victor and we are all very lucky to witness

An artist always explores their instrument. They don't simply play "the done thing", the same way, on repeat... How boring would music become?! It's freedom from limitation. Your performances are precisely that. A foray into the musical wilderness!

Juan Rivera Rubio

Estimado amigo veo que tus raíces las tienes presente en tus interpretaciones

Dear friend, I see that your roots are present in your interpretations.

Marco Fields

Siempre me ha gustado tu versión Victor Martinez Parada. Si bien tiene toda tu técnica a la cual estamos acostumbrados, la gran virtud , según yo, es que has logrado conservar la delicadeza y por sobre todo, transmitir la emoción de esta canción….. siendo una versión instrumental donde no hay poesía o letra…..

Eso, no lo logra cualquiera.

Un abrazo desde tu tierra  Víctor querido.

I've always loved your version, Victor Martinez Parada. While it showcases all the technique we're used to, its greatest strength, in my opinion, is that you've managed to preserve the delicacy and, above all, convey the emotion of this song... even though it's an instrumental version without lyrics or poetry.

That's not something just anyone can achieve.

A hug from your homeland, dear Victor.

Margot McLaughlin

Beautiful, los dos, but I especially love your reflective and gentle interpretation of El Derecho.

Wow. I had a guitar teacher 20plus years ago who taught me a small part of this piece using tab formula as I don’t read music. I learned it and played it for my dying father in his last days and never knew it’s story. Knowing my parents were children of wartime and particularly how my Father protected my Uncle during that difficult time when they were billoted out for their welfare to escape the big city, makes the significance of me playing THAT piece to my darling Dad even more memorable.

Thankyou for reminding me Victor

Cada vez que estuve al lado de mi adorada y jamás olvidada Goyita senti una dicha inefable, maravillosa, indescriptible.Ella,mujer bella por dentro y por fuera sembró amor y cosechó lo que se merecía junto a su.preciosa familia.

Desde donde esté seguirá velando por su familia.

Adiós mi adorada hermanita ; será hasta cuando nos podamos encontrar para no separarnos jamás.

Un gran beso y abrazo al infinito.

Jenny Georgi

The loss of someone that no amount of words or expression of affection can ever be measured is the cruelest of all fates.

To love beyond measure is the sweetest gift.

The price we pay when they must depart is cruel.

Your Gloria sounded a magnificent woman. Much respect to you & your family as you think of her on anniversaries & all the days inbetween

Luisa Caroca Lucero

Que el recuerdo de Gloria siga siendo una fuente de fortaleza y consuelo para ti y tu familia. Mis pensamientos están con ustedes en este día tan significativo.

Con cariño y respeto,

Luisa.
