Peter Schuttevaar was born in 1964 in the
After many years of neglecting piano playing in favour of business
activities, his interest was once more ignited by his love for the music of J.S.
Bach and W.A. Mozart. Besides works of these composers, Peter’s repertoire shows
music of for example Brahms, Chopin, Poulenc, Corelli, and Beethoven.
Peter lives in the Dutch countryside of Leersum, and currently runs an
enterprise dedicated to delivering services on program management (www.vitha.nl).
A special passion of Peter is to combine aspects of business
science with art, philosophy and music. One of the initiatives that emerged from this passion
is about the performance of music in special locations. For every location, there is a musical
composition that excels in telling its story and underlining its qualities. This
forms the basis for a series of piano music videos, recorded on special
locations, like old town halls or modern libraries. These videos will be used
for promotional purposes, and the audio tracks of these videos will be made
available as mp3 recordings on Piano Society. For more information, or to
contact Peter about this initiative, please visit the website mentioned above.
As an example, and as a way for the
pianist to introduce himself, we present here a video of Peter performing a arrangement
of Arcangelo Corelli’s Trio Sonata “La Folia”. This was recorded in Peter's home, a monumental tower in Leersum, the Netherlands.
