Arthur Jussen
Pianist Arthur Jussen performs as part of a duo with his older brother, Lucas Jussen. The brothers were educated in part separately, but they perform together almost exclusively, appearing with major orchestras and at festivals in many countries.
Arthur Jussen was born in Hilversum in the Netherlands on September 28, 1996. He and Lucas were members of a musical family; their father, Paul Jussen, was a timpanist who performed with the Netherlands Radio Philharmonic Orchestra, and their mother, Christiane van Gelder, taught the flute. The brothers took up the piano early, studying with Jan Wijn. They also had regular lessons from Maria João Pires and some from such stars as Lang Lang and Ricardo Castro. As children, they performed for the Netherlands' Queen Beatrix. In 2004, Arthur Jussen won a first prize at the National Competition of the Stichting Jong Muziektalent Nederland. When Arthur was ten, the brothers played Mozart's Concerto for two pianos in E flat major, K. 365, with the Netherlands Radio Chamber Philharmonic under conductor Jaap van Zweden. At that point, the brothers' educations diverged; Arthur continued to study at the Amsterdam Conservatory with Wijn. They joined the Netherlands Radio Chamber Philharmonic once again in 2009, performing Poulenc's Concerto for two pianos. The following year, they were signed to the Deutsche Grammophon label and released the album Beethoven: Piano Sonatas, performing well-known sonatas individually as well as several works for piano four hands.
The brother duo has continued to record for Deutsche Grammophon, issuing a varied set of albums covering such composers as Debussy, Bach, and Schubert. In 2021, they released The Russian Album. Arthur & Lucas Jussen have appeared with such major orchestras as the Boston Symphony, the Concertgebouw Orchestra of Amsterdam, the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, and orchestras in Asia and Australia. They have appeared at festivals around western Europe, and in 2021-2022, they served as artists-in-residence at the Berlin Konzerthaus. The brothers have commissioned several contemporary works, and in 2022, they released the album Dutch Masters on Deutsche Grammophon.
