Lucas & Arthur Jussen

Beinahe überirdisch zu nennen ist der Genuss und die Freude mit der Stockhausen dank der genialen Interpretation der beiden jungen holländischen Klaviervirtuosen sein Publikum beschenkt.

An audience of 2000, sitting as quietly as mice for an hour and a half, listening to Karlheinz Stockhausen’s ‘Mantra’.

Lucas and Arthur Jussen were the major surprise in the closing performance of the Holland Festival proms in the Concertgebouw. This is how to play Stockhausen in the 21st century.

They all sat, quiet as mice, for an hour and a half of attentive listening, as Lucas and Arthur Jussen ventured forth on Stockhausen’s MANTRA

From the moment they appeared on stage in translucent mesh suits (shirt-free), the brothers grabbed the audience by the scruff their necks and then proceeded to hold their attention, in the utmost concentration, for 70 minutes.
