Van Veen has played recitals in Austria, Belgium, Canada, England, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Russia, and the U.S., and he has performed orchestral concerts conducted by modern composers Peter Eötvös and Robert Craft. In 2005 he started a new type of concerts; lay down concerts, (ligconcert®).
