Academy of St Martin in the Fields / Lucas & Arthur Jussen

Perfect symbiosis

Those who have never paid much attention to the art of the duo will see the light in this concert. Dutch brothers Arthur and Lucas Jussen always captivate their audience and demonstrate beyond doubt that the symbiosis of four virtuosic hands provides a truly spectacular experience. »This is not simply a matter of two outstanding pianists playing together. The two brothers sense every subtlety in the other’s interpretation, no matter how small.« Sir Neville Marriner, the legendary founder of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, was a staunch admirer of the pair’s remarkably independent interpretative will. No wonder the British chamber orchestra is all too happy to share a stage again with the likeable musicians.
