We welcome Egemen Kesikli to our podcast for episode 3! Turkish composer, performer, and educator, Egemen is currently on faculty at the CU Boulder and Colorado State University. He is incredibly honest and vulnerable about his experiences in Turkey, the United States, and his mental journey toward musical self-acceptance. He brings up many questions without clear answers that composers, educators, and performers alike should hear! Transcripts are available for every episode thanks so our team of interns and can be found https://www.diversifythestand.org/transcripts!
