Kees Bakels

Kees Bakels

Kees Bakels (born 14 January 1945 Amsterdam) is a Dutch conductor.

Bakels began his musical career as a violinist, and later studied conducting at the Amsterdam Conservatory and the Accademia Musicale Chigiana in Siena, Italy. He has appeared with many orchestras as a guest conductor, in addition to holding titled positions with the Netherlands Chamber Orchestra, Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and, most recently, the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra. He is well-known for recording seven symphonies of Vaughan Williams and the concertos of Nielsen with the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra.

His recent work with the Malaysian Philharmonic has garnered him an international reputation, particularly four recorded compact discs of orchestral music by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov on the BIS record label. Bakels has also recorded discs for Naxos (including the Vaughan Williams cycle) and Vox.
