Peter Beets

4albums in the catalogue
2010–2026years covered
10composers reworked

Classical piano came to Peter Beets through his music-teacher mother, while his father’s enthusiasms ran to Oscar Peterson and Art Blakey. That double inheritance has become a career- long meeting point: Beets brings Peterson-like drive to Chopin, Russian Romanticism and Spanish repertoire, looking for the swing already latent in a dance or melodic turn.

The records

Composers reworked: Chopin (2), Granados (1), de Falla (1), Albéniz (1), Rimsky-Korsakov (1), Rachmaninoff (1), Tchaikovsky (1), Prokofiev (1).
