The little pianist amazes with his talent – CULTURE-ART – Erzurum Pusula Newspaper

Gündoğdu, who was educated at the Provincial Service Union Kindergarten in the city, became interested in music when he was 2 years old, thanks to the toy piano his family bought him. Gündoğdu, who was understood to be talented in music over time, was enrolled in a piano course 7 months ago with the guidance of his kindergarten teacher. Gündoğdu, who is brought to the Youth Center affiliated with the Provincial Directorate of Youth and Sports in Atatürk District on certain days by his family, takes lessons from instructor Defne Bucak, a 4th grade student at Munzur University’s Department of Music. Gündoğdu, who can easily transcribe the sounds he hears on the piano, can play works by many famous artists.

– “He studied finger exercises a lot and finished two books.”

Stating that they started piano lessons 7 months ago, Bucak said: “He is learning both harmony and piano notes. He is very good for his age and despite being illiterate. He finishes every work I give him in a very short time. He finished two books by working hard on finger exercises. We are currently in the third book and we have started the fourth book. Demirhan has started to play books almost at the level that university students play. Normally, children get bored early, but I have not encountered such a situation with Demirhan. “He doesn’t like easy songs, he doesn’t want to play them.”

– “People around us call my son ‘little pianist'”

Mother Şeyma Gündoğdu also explained that her son Demirhan was born in 2018. Stating that his son has been interested in the piano since he was two years old, Gündoğdu said, “With the guidance of our teachers in kindergarten, we received information that there were courses at Tunceli Youth Center and enrolled our son in the piano course there. People around us call my son ‘little pianist’. When we hear this, we become very emotional and proud of our son. I hope Demirhan “It will get better in the future.” said. Father Yasin Gündoğdu stated that his child is very calm and well-behaved at home. Stating that Demirhan was introduced to music thanks to a toy piano, Gündoğdu said, “At that time, Demirhan was mostly playing children’s songs on the piano, and after a while, we bought him a piano. I hope he will continue to play the piano when he grows up. We are ready to do everything we can for our child.” he said. AA
