Martina Bruno is a native New Yorker who has been singing since the age of four. She is a graduate of the State University of New York, Purchase College and has studied in Italy at the Conservatorio Di Mantova. Upon her return, she performed in such NYC underground clubs as Remote Lounge, Bobbaloo's, Five Spot Café, and Cheetah Club, presenting a synthesis of hip hop and classical song. Martina has also performed at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Apollo Theatre, Teatro Bibiena, and Soho Playhouse as a soloist or with an ensemble. She is a member of MUNY and is known as the "Angel of New York." She has toured Europe with the Glory Gospel Singers. Martina pushes the limits of classical song by incorporating modern popular styles, and her goal is to touch every walk of life with her voice, unifying the world with one song.
