Emin Poyraz Urhan

Emin Poyraz Urhan was born in Istanbul in 2005. He began his musical journey at the age of nine by playing the drums; after studying with various instructors, he reached a significant turning point in his musical development in 2019 when he began working with Emre Günaydın.
In the summer of 2020, Urhan moved from Istanbul to Fethiye, where he established his own home studio—a step that profoundly shaped his approach as a musician. During this period, he also began exploring the piano and guitar, eventually focusing his efforts on the piano, which he taught himself to play. Spending extensive time with his instruments—primarily the drums and piano—he began creating short compositions and arrangements, eventually moving on to write and record his own original works.
Having intensified his focus on jazz-oriented music during the pandemic, Urhan was admitted to the Bahçeşehir University Conservatory in 2023 to begin his undergraduate studies. Throughout his conservatory education, he studied with Berke Özgümüş for two years. Currently a fourth-year student at the Bahçeşehir University Conservatory, Urhan continues his musical pursuits under the guidance of Burak Bulut.
