I’m Erim Karamenderes — saxophonist, pianist, and teacher. I trained in classical performance, fell in love with jazz somewhere along the way, and have spent the last decade teaching students from absolute beginners to professional musicians.
I teach because I love the moment when a student stops thinking about the next note and starts playing. Every course is built around your ear, your repertoire, and your timing — not a generic syllabus.
How I teach
- One-to-one online lessons via Zoom or Google Meet
- In-studio lessons in Istanbul, plus seasonal workshops in Europe
- Recordings of every lesson so you can revisit anything
- Bilingual teaching — English or Türkçe
- Flexible scheduling, including evenings and weekends
Background
Conservatory-trained in classical saxophone and piano performance, with postgraduate study in jazz pedagogy. Active performer with appearances at festivals across Türkiye and Europe.
