Sinan Özen (pronounced [sinan œzæn]; born 1 March 1964, in Çayeli, Rize Province) is a Turkish folk music artist, composer, and songwriter.

Early life

[edit]

Sinan Özen was born in the Çayeli district of Rize. At a young age his family moved to İzmit where he spent a few years of his childhood. Then they moved to Istanbul where Sinan graduated from his primary and secondary education. He then continued his education in Rize, at the Department of Lathe-Leveling in the Rize Industrial Vocational High School.[1] Following this, Sinan Özen decided to leave this profession, and embark on a career in music.

Career

[edit]

From a young age, Sinan Özen always had a passion for music, and his first attempt to start his singing career was in 1981, where he participated in a song contest that was advertised in a local newspaper. Sinan ultimately won the contest, but despite this, it did not lead to any further offers or opportunities.

He later met Süheyla Altmışdört, a tutor in the Academy of Music, with the help of his musician friend, who taught him instrumental and solfeggio classes.[2] He also had instrumental Oud and Solfeggio training from Irfan Ozbakir, a Turkish composer. In 1982 Sinan was encouraged by his tutors to apply to the Istanbul Academy of Music, where he was accepted in the Department of Turkish Classical Music in 1982, where he studied until he finally graduated from the academy in 1988.

His professional career began when he released his first album Rüyalarım Olmasa (“If I Didn't Have My Dreams”) in 1989. Sinan Özen has since produced produced 18 albums[3] including one Turkish classical music album and 28 singles.
