At the age of 9 Denise took successfully the entrance exam to the preliminary training of the "Sweelinck" Conservatory of Amsterdam. Because of practical reasons she moved since January 2000 to the Conservatory of Brabant in the city of Tilburg, where she studied with Ton Demmers.

In November 2002 Denise won the first prize at the German DTKV Piano Competition, region Cologne/Aachen. Since then she has performed in Düsseldorf, Cologne, Aachen and Düren.

In 2003 several master classes were offered to Denise, for instance by the famous Russian pianists Prof. Leonid Gakkel and Prof. Vladimir Krainev.
Aged 14 she has given very successfully her debut solo recital on January 22nd 2005 in her home town Venlo.
