Lucas & Arthur Jussen Klavier
Dance liberates. Stravinsky's Rite of Spring in 1913 liberated rhythm, sound, and harmony, scandalizing the Parisian audience. Ravel's La Valse, also for the Ballets Russes, was deemed too dark. Schubert's F-minor Fantasy, with its Hungarian dance rhythms, broke from traditional sonata form. The Jussen brothers' piano duo now invites us to a liberating dance with works by Schubert and Mendelssohn.

Achtung, es wird spannend!

Sie sind ein eingespieltes Team, dessen Experimentierfreude, Rhythmusgefühl und herausragende Virtuosität ein Feuerwerk an Tasten und Drumsticks verspricht.

John Storgårds, Lucas & Arthur Jussen

Fri, Mar 14, 2025, 20:00
Konzerthalle Bamberg, Joseph-Keilberth-Saal (Bamberg)
John Storgårds (Conductor), Lucas Jussen (Piano), Arthur Jussen (Piano)
We are delighted that John Storgårds will be our guest again this season, as he is a highly valued member of our orchestra family. In addition to his regular appearances in Bamberg as a conductor, he was active in other roles last summer: as part of the jury in our Mahler Competition. As a conductor, he is known for his creative instinct in arranging programmes and will guide us through his rich selection of works with a keen sense of rhythm: We start with a waltz from a rarely heard gem – Shostakovich’s operetta, first performed in 1959, which revolves around everyday life in a Plattenbau housing estate. Poulenc could be a real »rascal« – as evidenced by his concerto written in 1932, despite some of its elegiac tones. We are pleased to welcome two young pianists, Lucas and Arthur Jussen, for their debut in Bamberg. The concert will also feature the Symphony No. 3 by Ukrainian composer Victoria Polevá: this haunting piece was written in 2003 and at times creates powerful sonic massifs, but is otherwise characterised by a melancholy tone. This austere mood suits our guest conductor wonderfully as a transition to the initially very pensive nature of Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 6 – which, however, then ends in a sarcastic circus frenzy. This is sure to be a moving experience, as the press raved about our cordial collaboration with the likeable Finn on the podium: »John Storgårds allowed for highly emotional, exuberant, free and joyful music-making, which the superb Bambergers savoured to the full. Everything was just right – a great moment!«

Gewandhausorchester Leipzig / Lucas & Arthur Jussen / Andris Nelsons

What might it have been like in the Mendelssohn or Jussen household? Were there always enough pianos for all the children to practise at the same time? It is inconceivable that Felix Mendelssohn was only 14 years old when he premiered his double concerto with his sister Fanny, who was four years older, at a matinee in his parents’ home. »What are all the child prodigies compared to him?« wrote the piano virtuoso Ignaz Moscheles at the time. Lucas and Arthur Jussen also achieved astonishing mastery of the piano at a very young age – they made their debut at the Concertgebouw when they were 10 and 13 years of age respectively... When the brothers appear alongside the renowned Gewandhausorchester Leipzig in the current ProArte season, Andris Nelsons, a true successor to Mendelssohn as only 13 conductors separate them, will be conducting the top orchestra.
