About Ron Adelaar

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My father was a musician, playing the flute. As a young child at home I always heard music and I remember enjoying listening to it. At the age of 8 I started playing keys and loved to improvise and composing my own music. I've done that all my life. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular?

The story that's told in this song: Small steps can lead to great results. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? After releasing my music on streamingplatforms since 5 years I had my first live performance in a famous Dutch venue in 2022. I played my compositions for a live audience. That was a great experience. I've been doing that severals times now. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? The last two years I'm performing my compositions live in The Netherlands. I also would love to play my music abroad in a theater in Paris, Berlin, Barcelona, London or New York. That would be a dream come true..
