Insight Piano with Lukas Sternath

Tue, Jan 28, 2025, 18:00
Steinway & Sons, Manufaktur
Lukas Sternath (Piano), Simon Rempe (Talk), Anne Kussmaul (Moderator)
Be it a piano recital, lieder recital, piano trio or piano concerto – as soon as a concert grand is involved, one thing is essential: tuning the piano’s strings. When the instruments have been tuned correctly, you only perceive this consciously in the rarest cases. But even the minutest imperfection can turn the long-awaited musical experience into an acoustic nightmare. That this is not the case in the professional music business is thanks to outstanding piano tuners who fine tune the 88 keys of a concert grand before each concert. At »Insight Piano«, Simon Rempe, master piano builder at Steinway & Sons, and the pianist Lukas Sternath, reveal the things you have to pay special attention to when tuning, and explain why different pianists have different preferences. The event starts at 18:00 with a tour of the Steinway & Sons production halls. Then, following a short break with cool drinks, Simon Rempe and Lukas Sternath share fascinating insights into the collaboration between piano builders and pianists.

Lukas Geniušas / Piano Recital

Mon, Apr 8, 2024, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Lukas Geniušas (Piano)
With virtuosic aplomb and an unusually broad repertoire, the Lithuanian Lukas Geniušas is making his mark as an exceptional young pianist. Geniušas combines Franz Liszt’s Sonata in B Minor, a familiar milestone of the piano repertoire despite its many difficulties, with an exciting and rarely performed work by Frederic Rzewski, in which Geniušas takes on the role of speaking pianist. Frederic Rzewski’s »De profundis« (From the Depths) refers to a letter written by Oscar Wilde. Wilde wrote this forbidden love letter from prison after being convicted and incarcerated for his homosexuality. Spoken elements from Wilde’s text and instrumental passages become a psychological profile in word and music, through the performance of which Geniušas showcases his acting talent too. What links Rzewski’s work and Liszt’s Sonata in B Minor is their shared existential expression and revolutionary power.

Lukas Geniušas / Piano Recital

Wed, May 28, 2025, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Lukas Geniušas (Piano)
Machines, speed and progress promised a glorious future in the early 20th century. The general buzz around technology soon spilled over into art as the movement of the Futurists. They explored new topics and forms of expression – for instance, in Russia, which was also on the verge of political upheaval. Russian-Lithuanian pianist Lukas Geniušas, who was most recently celebrated in the »Pianomania« series at the Elbphilharmonie, presents important representatives of this brief, but all the more exciting, period. Alexander Scriabin was a musical forerunner to the Russian Futurists with his groundbreaking piano works, such as his 5 Preludes. Arthur Lourié ultimately became the musical spokesperson of the movement and sought the »autonomy of tempi and rhythms«. In his »Eight Scenes of Russian Childhood«, he sets the movements of children, footballs or contemporary dances to music. The huge impact Futurism had on Russian music is clear in the early works of three of the most important composers of the 20th century: both Shostakovich and Prokofiev as well as Stravinsky got enthusiastic about the new spirit of the age. While Stravinsky was already living in Paris and by turns outraging and delighting audiences with his works, his two colleagues experienced their artistic breakthrough shortly thereafter.
