'Listening in Dreams:' Making a living as a composer and musician

For artists who are living the life they have always dreamed of, it’s easy to keep forgetting that. And if dreams are the easiest access we have to our inner selves, our subconsciousness, that part of our being is the most interesting for artists, since art also allows for experiences that can't be described in words. Our biggest challenge, then, lies in balancing our dreamy state of being with the state of being that has to run a label, recording studio, and get projects through funding processes.

Kaan Bulak is a composer and pianist who writes music, performs on stage with his ensemble and creates sonic experiences. Along the way, Kaan has started releasing electronic music and played live sets in clubs. In 2017 he was able to gather commissions by classically oriented institutions and moved over to classical stages to perform with his ensemble, as a soloist with symphony orchestras, and solo concerts. For electronically augmenting the grand piano, he co-designed a radial loudspeaker specifically for classical concert halls. With such speaker concepts and his label Feral Note, which focuses on music between electronic and acoustic sounds, his aim is to bring underground sounds, artists, and attitudes to classical stages.
