New head of the Classical Department: Pieter Jansen

After the interviews for the new head of the Classical Department, Pieter Jansen was selected! We first saw Pieter entering Conservatorium Maastricht as a 16-year old, where he then succeeded in three (!) studies: Piano, Percussion, and Conducting. Pieter has been a lecturer for 35 years now, and will continue to bring laughter, structure and innovation to the Classical Department. Let’s Go!
