- "I did not choose music, it chose me". Cornelis has been receiving private music tuition since the age of 6. Piano was his first instrument, but he quickly developed a great love for the violin, and picked it up shortly after. His first public appearance as musician was at age 7.Cornelis has received private tuition on the violin with Esme Koornhof, Piet Koornhof of the Potchefstroom Conservatory, Annette Wehnert of the Kölner Konservatorium, and Antoinette Lohmann of the Utrecht Conservatorium. These included master classes in baroque practise and performance. Until recently, he was under tuition of composer Hannes Taljaard. He also had sessions with American composer/pianist Evan Mack, and London based composer Robert Fokkens.

Cornelis is a devoted chamber musician, and has experience directing and leading small ensembles. He is also co-founder of the Strepitoso Chamber Ensemble. During the first term of 2006, he assisted with violin instruction to disadvantaged children at the conservatory in Potchefstroom. He is also a private violin instructor. Cornelis was principle 2nd violinist of the North West Youth Orchestra in South Africa during 2006, and was appointed co-concertmaster in 2007. In 2008 he was given the seat of concertmaster. During 2008 the orchestra performed very successfully in the UK, Holland, Germany, and in France. Cornelis performed with the international baroque orchestra Fons Partita in what was the first historic informed performance and recording of two of Handel’s Chandos Anthems in South Africa. In 2009 Cornelis became concertmaster of the PUK Symphony Orchestra.

Cornelis started writing music seriously when he was 13. Shortly after, he came under tuition of Hannes Taljaard. In 2006 his Piano trio - TRIAD, reached prize winning status. During 2007 he collected another prize for three of his newest works, Singlet (woodwind ensemble), Scapes & Falls (Solo Piano, first played in public on September 6th, 2007), and a cycle of Yiddish Folk songs (Piano trio & Soprano, incomplete version premiered 6 September 2007).
