Oldest township musician, 92, recalls a life on stage
Joseph Martin, 92, a longtime North Beaver Township resident, remains the area’s oldest man with a rich musical past. A former professional violinist and music teacher, he helped form the first orchestra and staged operettas in North Beaver and Bessemer schools, remembers early lessons, and recalls his family’s farming roots and local concert life. He lives with wife Elizabeth on Mt Jackson Road and reflects on a career that started with violin at seven and included a stint at Dana Conservatory and wartime service in the Student Army Training Corps.
