We prove that, given a family of Beltrami forms on C C with L ∞ L^ norm at most η > 1 >1 and that live in and vary holomorphically in the Sobolev space W l o c l, ∞ (Ω) W ₋₎₂^l, () of an open subset Ω ⊂ C C, the canonical solutions to the Beltrami equation vary holomorphically in W l o c l + 1, p (Ω) W ₋₎₂^l+1, p (), for some p = p (η) > 2 p=p () >2. This extends a foundational result of Ahlfors and Bers (the case l = 0 l=0). As an application, we deduce that Bers metrics depend holomorphically on their input data.
