Duo Motus, the piano duo of Türkü Su Dilan Özkaya and Melis Ertürk, shapes four-hand piano music into a clear and expressive shared voice, rooted in years of musical partnership and a constant search for new musical possibilities.
The duo has received several international awards, including first prizes at the Villafranca Verona City Piano Competition (2019) and the Roma International Piano Competition (2021, Piano Four Hands & Two Pianos). They studied with distinguished professors Hans-Peter and Volker Stenzl, Péter Nagy, Florian Wiek, and Can Çoker, completing their Konzertexamen in Piano Duo at the University of Music and Theatre Rostock in 2022.
Duo Motus performs regularly across Germany and Turkey. Since 2025, both pianists have been teaching at the University of Education Schwäbisch Gmünd, in addition to their long-standing positions at the Rosenstein Music School Heubach.

"Powerful, colourful, wistful, playful and humorous, close to nature and pianistically masterfully realised as a duo"
