Peter Beets (Netherlands, 12 June 1971) comes from a music loving family. Classical music comes to him through his mother, a music teacher, and jazz through his father, a doctor. Both his brothers are professional musicians. In 1977 Peter starts having piano lessons at the age of six. A conservatory study follows when he is 18 at the Royal Conservatory for Music and Dance in The Hague. While still studying Peter wins the Pall Mall Swing Award and the Prinses Christina Concours. He graduates from the conservatory in 1998, in which year he joins the Jazz Orchestra of the Concertgebouw as regular pianist.
