Lucas & Arthur Jussen
Jan 21, 2024 — 3:00 PM
Overview
Dutch brothers Lucas and Arthur Jussen comprise one of today’s most sought-after piano duos. Critics have marveled at how they “move as a single organism” (The Boston Globe) and play with “flair and instinctive collusion” (The Scotsman). Their Symphony Center recital debut features music by Mozart, Schubert and Kulenty, capped off with Stravinsky’s ferocious two-piano version of The Rite of Spring.

"We live in a very noisy world," says pianist Sir Andras Schiff. "Wherever we go — in restaurants, hotels, elevators — we are bombarded by 'music.' It’s always there, there’s no escape. So music is my oasis. It starts and ends in silence."
