Kamran Ince Recordings
Of American–Turkish parentage, Kamran Ince
had his early musical training in Ankara and
Izmir before returning to America, where he
studied at Oberlin and at the Eastman School
of Music. His prizes include the Prix de Rome
and the Lili Boulanger Prize. His compositions,
chiefly instrumental and generally neo-Romantic,
include orchestral and chamber music. Kamran
is Professor of Composition at the University of
Memphis and at Istanbul Technical University. The energy and rawness of
Turkish and Balkan music, the spirituality of Byzantine and Ottoman music, the
tradition of European art music and the extravert and popular qualities of the
American psyche are the basis of Kamran Ince’s soundworld.
