Over

I’m Istanbul-born and Amsterdam-based, trained as a classical pianist and educated in music composition, production, and sound design. My work spans live performance, composition for film and theatre, electronic production, and interdisciplinary sound design - and these experiences deeply inform the way I teach. I release music under the name Loradeniz and have performed internationally, but teaching is where I see the most meaningful transformation - not just in musical skill, but in confidence, expression, and personal growth.

creative background that shapes the lessons;
This diverse creative journey brings depth to the lessons, blending technique with artistic expression. Students benefit from an approach that’s rooted in both tradition and innovation - whether they're learning their first scale, writing a song, or experimenting with sound. The goal is to create a space where you can not only grow your skills but also connect with music in a way that feels personal, empowering, and inspiring.

why it matters;
A great teacher doesn't just pass on knowledge - they help you believe in your potential.
That’s my goal with every student: to create a space where learning is joyful, expressive, fun, and empowering. Whether you're learning your first chord, advancing your training, or preparing for a performance, this is a place where your motivation & sound are enough - and worth developing.

Want to learn more about what's behind classical music? Do you want to learn to write music yourself? Or are you already writing music, and would you like guidance or feedback? Then I can help you with this!

I graduated as a composer at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam (Bachelor) and the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire (Master). I have a lot of experience writing for solo instruments, ensembles, choirs and orchestras, and electronics.

For music theory, I can take a general, broad approach, or we can focus on certain types of music and explore it, depending on your needs.

For composition, we can discuss the basics if you are just starting or planning to compose. If you've been doing it for a while, we'll focus more on the music you make and discuss it with each other.
