Geert Veneklaas is a Dutch composer of contemporary neoclassical music for solo pinao. He began playing the piano at a young age, driven by his broad musical interest and desire to understand how music works.

Although his training as a music teacher might have pointed towards a career in education, he chose to follow his passion and became a keyboard player in a rock band. Despite charting in the Dutch charts and touring the club circuit, he eventually decided to end his pop career and focus on developing himself as a composer and arranger. This led to several accomplishments, including scoring for a short film that was screened at several international film festivals.

In recent years he has refocused his attention on composing contemporary classical piano pieces, drawing from his roots. He released his first compositions in 2021, and released his first album “Reflections” in 2023.
