Personal profile

Jasper van der Klis (Alphen aan den Rijn, the Netherlands, 1991) studied piano performance with Sebastián Colombo and Alan Weiss at the Utrecht Conservatoire (BMus, 2015) and with Peter Bithell at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama in London (MPerf, 2017). At Guildhall School he also completed doctoral research on Busoni’s interpretative editions of Bach’s keyboard works (DMus, 2022; supervisors Professor Sir Barry Ife and Dr Christopher Suckling). His studies in London were supported by the Guildhall School Trust and the Prins Bernhard Cultuurfonds.

Since January 2023 Jasper has been working as a postdoctoral researcher on the Leverhulme Trust/Research England project Texting Scarlatti, which aims to chart the spread of Scarlatti’s music by establishing the stemma of all ±3,200 surviving eighteenth-century manuscript and printed copies of his keyboard sonatas.
