He began studying percussion at a young age and pursued his musical education in Antwerp, Amsterdam, and Munich. During his training, he studied under several established professors and gained early experience performing in leading youth orchestras, including the Gustav Mahler Jugendorchester.
His professional career includes positions and regular engagements with several European orchestras. He held a position with the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra until 2025, cherished a strong connection to the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and the Munich Chamber Orchestra, and appeared as a guest with several world-renowned orchestras and ensembles.
​
Alongside his performance work, Adriaan is active in the cultural sector as a founder and entrepreneur. He is the founder & CEO of OpusM projects GmbH and the developer of the OpusM platform, an innovative marketplace for classical music concert programs. Since 2025, he leads the board of the Holzhauser Musiktage, a classical music festival held near Lake Starnberg in Bavaria.
Adriaan has been involved in multiple other projects. Between 2010 and 2014, he co-founded and hosted the MusicKnights chamber music festival in Belgium. In 2020, he assisted the launch of CouponConcerts in Munich, aimed at supporting freelance musicians during the COVID-19 pandemic. He also co-runs the KonzertKollektiv e.V., which produces various cultural events in Munich. In addition, he is co-founder and of the Münchner Trompetenconsort.
As a producer and recording artist, he performs under the name ADRIAAN. His debut album, Sessions #1 (2021), resulted from collaborative studio sessions associated with the TV series "ADRIAAN ontmoet", featuring artists from Rotterdam’s music scene. In spring 2024, he began releasing new works created with arranger Roeland Jacobs and engineer Udo Pannekeet. The music, composed during a period of personal loss, explores themes of grief and resilience. The pieces are written for a new ensemble and focus on expanding the sonic possibilities of the marimba within a modern and neo-classical context.

Since 2023, Adriaan carries the memory of his beloved wife, Anne, living each day as a quiet tribute to the life they shared and the one they dreamed of together.
