About

Lucas Jussen (born 27 February 1993, Hilversum) is a Dutch classical pianist who performs almost exclusively as a duo with his younger brother Arthur Jussen (born 1996). Growing up in a musical family - their father a timpanist in the Netherlands Radio Philharmonic Orchestra, their mother a flute teacher - the brothers were mentored by Maria João Pires and Lucas later studied with Menahem Pressler and Dmitri Bashkirov. Signed to Deutsche Grammophon since 2010, the duo has built one of the most celebrated careers in contemporary classical music, appearing with orchestras from the Berliner Philharmoniker to the Boston Symphony.
