Sevgili piyanistler, piyanoyu hobi olarak çalanlar ve eğitmenlere duyuru:

Op.22 Konser Etüdleri adını alacak olan bir albümü tamamladığımı heyecanla paylaşmak isterim. Bu kitap/albüm, öğrencilerim için yazdığım hem melodik hem de egzersiz niteliğinde 7 kısa parçadan oluşmaktadır. Parçaların nasıl çalışılması gerektiğini açıklayan Türkçe notlar ve zorluk seviyeleri belirtilmiş olup, notalarda sadelik ve çalım kolaylığı gözetilmiştir.

Bu eserleri ülkemin vatandaşlarına ücretsiz olarak vermek, cumhuriyetin ilk yıllarında -bugün mezunu olduğum- Ankara Devlet Konservatuvarı’nı kuran, bir kadın olarak eğitim almamı sağlayan ve beni yetiştiren Mustafa Kemal Atatürk’e bir teşekkür amacı taşımaktadır.

Bu serinin devamı muhakkak gelir, o zamana kadar çaldığınız parçaların kayıtlarını bana bir şekilde ulaştırmanız beni çok mutlu edecektir.

Peki bu müzikleri nasıl dinleyeceksiniz? Buraya teker teker ekleyeceğim elbet, lakin kış gelmeden Spotify başta olmak üzere diğer bin tane platformda göreceğiz.

English post:
Dear pianists, piano enthusiasts, and teachers,

The book, titled Concert Etudes, consists of seven short pieces I have composed for my students both melodic and serving as technical exercises. The scores include Turkish/English notes explaining how each piece should be studied, as well as indicated difficulty levels. Simplicity and ease of performance have been prioritized in the notation.

Offering these works free of charge to the citizens of my country is my way of thanking Atatürk who founded the Ankara State Conservatory (from which I have graduated) in the early years of the Republic, who made it possible for me, as a woman, to receive an education, and who nurtured my growth as a musician.

This series will certainly continue; until then, receiving recordings of your performances of these pieces, in any form you can share them, would bring me great joy.

And how will you listen these musics? I will be posting them here one by one, of course, but before winter arrives, we will also see them on Spotify and countless other platforms.

9 Aralık 2022 Prömiyer Gecesi, Konser
Sonra çıkıp biraz piyano çaldım. Bu esnada bir hayalim gerçek oldu: Devekuşu Kabare’yi sahneye taşıdım. Bir de, hayalimin ötesi gerçekleşti.

Then I started playing. Meanwhile one of my dreams came true. Then one more thing happened beyond imagination.

This piece from Debussy’s Children’s Corner (1908) took me straight back to my early teenage years.
So should we call this theoretical time travel, or practical? 🤔

Debussy’nin Children’s Corner (1908) isimli albümüne ait bu parçayı çalarak ortaokul yıllarıma geri döndüm. Peki şimdi teorik olarak zamanda yolculuk mu diyeceğiz, pratik olarak mı? 🤔

Herkese iyi seneler! Happy new year to all! 🎄

Paylaşmak için yeni yılın ilk gününü beklediğim op.14 Minyatürler’in heyecanı içerisindeyim. 2020-21 yıllarında yazdığım solo piyanonun popüler müzik dilini hedef almış bu üç parçanın birini (Faith) hali hazırda biliyorsunuz. Diğer ikisini de kaydederek takımı tamamlamış oldum.   @ogulcanyigitozdemir ‘in beni resmettiği, baktıkça hareketlenen bu tablosu albüme kapak olarak bir zarafet kattı. @itumiam stüdyosunun muazzam Steinway’i nefis tınılar sundu, ses mühendisliğinde @esrefberkturkoglu albümü resmen sahiplenerek çalıştı. Ve ortaya içime çok sinen bir çalışma çıktı.   Çalma zorluğu tartışılır, piyanoda 3-4 kaliteli yıl geçirmiş herkes rahatlıkla çalabilir. Öğrenci etüdleri (op.22) de gelecek, o ayrı, ona da az kaldı,,,

I’m filled with excitement for op.14 Miniatures, which I’ve been waiting to share on the very first day of the new year. Written between 2020–21, these three solo piano pieces aim toward a popular music language. One of them, Faith, is already familiar to you. With the recording of the other two, the set is now complete.

The painting by @ogulcanyigitozdemir , in which he portrayed me, a work that seems to come alive the longer you look at it added a refined elegance as the album cover. The magnificent Steinway at @itumiam studio offered exquisite colors, and in sound engineering, @esrefberkturkoglu truly took ownership of the album throughout the process. The result is a work that feels deeply right to me.

The level of technical difficulty is debatable; anyone who has spent 3–4 solid years at the piano should be able to play it comfortably. Student études (op.22) are also on the way, which is a topic of another post.

Ankara Devlet Opera ve Balesi çatısı altında yapılan Lied Akşamı konserinde geçen yıl yazdığım op.20 Orhan Veli Şarkıları’nın prömiyeri gerçekleşti, ne de güzel oldu. Bu üç parçanın tadımlık kaydını da bu gönderinin içine koydum. Bütün akşam için konuşacak olursam, lezzetli bir dinletiyi zarif bir atmosfer içinde dinledik. Hepinize teşekkür ediyorum.

Özellikle konserin korrepetitörü, müthiş piyanist @handeucaryanc ve eserleri ithaf ettiğim dostum @mertovski ‘ye şahane temsilleri için dev teşekkür ederim.

The premiere of my Orhan Veli Lieds op.20, which I composed last year, took place at the Lied Evening concert under the roof of the Ankara State Opera and Ballet, and what a lovely night it was. We enjoyed a truly tasteful recital in such an elegant atmosphere.
Many thanks to everyone who made this evening so special. You can find the three trailer-video of my pieces in this post.

A big thank you especially to the concert’s correpetitor, the wonderful pianist @handeucaryanc, and to my dear friend @mertovski -who I dedicated these pieces- for their brilliant performances.

Nocturne no.14
I performed this piece for my beloved boyfriend, as it’s one of his favorite pieces. Instead of playing it on my old piano, I was playing it on the wall, it sounded better that way.

Bu parçayı sevgili sevgilim için seslendirdim, kendisinin favori parçalarından biri. Eski piyanomda çalacağıma duvarda, hesap makinesinde falan çalıyordum, daha iyi tınlıyordu.
