about
AyseDeniz Gokcin (born 1988) recently completed her Masters in Piano Performance at the Royal Academy of Music in London. She was under the tutelage of Christopher Elton, received the Maud Hornsby Award, graduated with Merit and completed the LRAM Teaching Certificate. In 2009, she completed her Bachelors Degree at Eastman School of Music (Rochester NY) in the studio of Douglas Humpherys, where she received the Howard Hanson and Clements Scholarships as well as the John Celentano Excellence in Chamber Music Award. Gokcin was accepted to Juilliard School but instead decided to go to Spain to study with Rosalyn Tureck, becoming one of her last students. AyseDeniz was considered a child prodigy in her native Turkey and made her concerto debut when she was nine, with the Gordion Chamber Orchestra playing J.S. Bach’s Keyboard Concerto No. 5. At thirteen, she had already performed as a soloist with various orchestras under conductors including Ibrahim Yazici, Fahrettin Kerimov, Antonio Pirolli, Cem Mansur, Engin Sakpinar, Ertug Korkmaz, Rengim Gokmen, Vladimir Sirenko, and Kirill Karabits. Upon hearing AyseDeniz’s interpretation of a Chopin Sonata Nikolai Petrov personally invited her to perform in the Kremlin Palace (Moscow, Russia) – a concert that was very well-received and marked somewhat of a mile stone in Miss Gokcin’s young career. She has given concerts at L’Eglise (Verbier, Switzerland); Duke’s Hall, Kings Place (London, UK); Central Park of Culture and Resort Open Air
