In the summer of 2016, Kerem Hasan attended the Conducting Academy of the Aspen Music Festival for the first time.

"England's 30-year-old Kerem Hasan appeared to be the kind of clear communicator you want in any leadership position, emphasizing wide-ranging and oft-changing dynamics throughout the evening. And his graceful, balletic movement vocabulary was ideal for such transporting repertoire."
Star Tribune, Rob Hubbard, 23.07.2022
"On the podium stood Kerem Hasan, and he conducted the orchestra as if he had been born to do so."
Politiken, Thomas Michelsen, 24.11.2018
