 Previous show now online
The Schumann-inspired Art of Time ensemble and guests concert of December '07 (see below) is finally available for listeners on-line. Click here to have a listen to three-quarters of Nick Buzz -- Martin Tielli, Jon Goldsmith and Rob Piltch.
Beth Hamill, a transplanted Yank whose heart was stopped at the Canadian border when it tried to declare its love for Canadian music, shoots bands as an expression of that love. She took this pic of Martin and his Nick Buzz cohorts with the Art of Time ensemble during the December concert featuring Schumann’s Piano Quintet Op. 44 and 10 original songs written and performed by Canadian singer/songwriters inspired by the quintet. Visit Rock / /Paper // Pixels for other examples of Beth's work.

Upcoming shows
There are no shows scheduled at this time.
Martin Tielli subscription series
In 2003, Martin committed to the most tragically
ambitious music project to come out of Canada's
independent music scene in a very long time: four wildly divergent CDs, packaged in collector's edition tin cases with original artwork by Tielli, one year for delivery. It didn't quite happen.
Two have been delivered -- Operation Infinite Justice and Schoenberg Cabarets.
Two releases, described below, remain outstanding but we are pleased to report that the music for both albums is nearly complete. An advance report from an early listener is that "the work is staggering in its beauty." The faithful will be rewarded soon by release of the third and fourth installments.
#3: The Ghost
of Danny G.
The seeds of this recording were planted with
Nick Buzz. Now in full gear, this will be a
portrait of rural southern Ontario inside the
true and complex story of a haunted town. Be
afraid -- be very afraid.
#4: New Gold
A collaboration with noted producer Jon Goldsmith
(also of Nick Buzz). This work in progress is
symphonic, arranged by Jon.
A small number
of subscriptions are still available. Each CD is delivered in a numbered, collector's edition tin box.
Total subscription price: $100 plus tax (extra
shipping for international orders). Upon ordering,
you will receive a voucher specifying your "limited
edition" number and receipt.
To order, visit Six
Shooter Records.
New music
Martin's vocals are featured on four tracks of the new Art of Time Ensemble CD Live in Toronto. His performances include interpretations of Jacques Brel and Arnold Schoenberg. The album is available from the Six Shooter Records store and online at Maple Music.
