Aksel Basaran's Profile

Background:

I’m Aksel Başaran, a pianist trained in Turkey and internationally. I began formal piano studies under Prof. Binnur Ekber, then attended Bilkent University’s Music Preparation High School with Prof. Gülnara Aziz. I went on to earn my Bachelor of Music degree in Piano Performance, followed by a Master of Music in Piano/Vocal Accompaniment / Performance. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of solo performing, working as an accompanist, and tackling repertoire from Mozart to Liszt in major orchestral settings. My passion is carrying forward the piano tradition: sharing musical depth, technical precision, and expressive nuance. Though much of my work so far has been concert-based, I am deeply interested in teaching and mentoring the next generation of pianists — helping them both master their craft and discover their own musical voice.
