Born in the Netherlands, Patrick was educated at the British School in the Netherlands. He began piano lessons aged 9 and won first prize at the Edith Stein Concours (now Prinses Cristina Concours) in 1983.
From 1987 he studied at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague with the latvian pianist Naum Grubert, graduating with Distinction in 1992.
Since then he has played in the UK, Spain, Switzerland, former Yugoslavia and the US. At home in the Netherlands he gives regular solo recitals as well as an impressive range of chamber music concerts.
Recent projects include the complete Chopin Études (1998) and Schubert's complete piano solo works (2000). Patrick is much in demand as an accompanist and has regularly given summer courses for young pianists in Spain.
