About Berkay

Since childhood, I have been immersed in both Turkish and Western music, which has shaped my deep understanding of this rich musical tradition. Throughout my education in Turkey and Greece, I had the opportunity to study with the best teachers. With years of experience and direct guidance from experts, I bring both theoretical knowledge and practical expertise to my lessons.
