Conductor

Jérémie Rhorer

Jérémie Rhorer is one of the most versatile and intellectually ambitious conductors of his generation. As the founder and Artistic Director of the orchestra Le Cercle de l’Harmonie, the Frenchman continues in the tradition of artist-innovator, exploring the repertoire of the 18th and 19th centuries using period instruments. A winner of the Prix Pierre Cardin, Rhorer is also a well-respected composer. For over 10 years, Jérémie Rhorer has developed a close relationship with the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées in Paris, where he has conducted a broad spectrum of standard, rarely-performed and contemporary operas. Rhorer has also conducted some of the most distinguished international orchestras, including the Montreal Symphony Orchestra, the Gewandhausorchester, the Orchestre de Paris and the Czech Philharmonic.

In demand as an opera conductor, Rhorer has conducted performances at the Vienna State Opera, the Bavarian State Opera, the Teatro Real in Madrid and the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma and has also guest conducted at some of Europe’s most prestigious international festivals. Highlights of the current season include his debuts with the Orchestre Philharmonique de Bordeaux-Aquitaine and at the Opernhaus Zürich with a new production of Offenbach’s seldom-performed opera Barkouff. In recent years, Jérémie Rhorer and Le Cercle de l’Harmonie have initiated an innovative residency at Le Grand Théâtre de Provence in Aix-en-Provence, which includes an educational programme dedicated to new audiences. The exciting conductor enjoys a long-standing collaboration with The Deutsche Kammer­philharmonie Bremen.

Piano duo

Lucas and Arthur Jussen

»It’s like driving two BMWs at the same time,« said conductor Michael Schønwandt after conducting the two Dutch brothers Lucas and Arthur Jussen. Notwithstanding their young age, these two pianists – 29 and 25 years old – have been an international sensation creating enthusiasm for some time. As children they performed before The Netherlands‘ Queen Beatrix and in 2005 they were invited by Portuguese concert pianist Maria João Pires to study in Portugal and Brazil. Lucas completed his training with Menahem Pressler in the USA and with Dmitri Bashkirov in Madrid. Arthur completed his studies with Jan Wijn at the Amsterdam Conservatory.

The brothers now work with orchestras such as the Boston Symphony Orchestra, The Philadelphia Orchestra, the Concertgebouw Orchestra, the Danish National Symphony Orchestra, the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and the Symphony Orchestras in Montréal, Sydney, Singapore and Shanghai. They also perform under renowned conductors such as Christoph Eschenbach, Valery Gergiev, Manfred Honeck, Andris Nelsons, Jukka-Pekka Saraste and Jaap van Zweden. During the 2021/2022 season, these musicians are performing as ›Artists in Residence‹ at the Konzerthaus Berlin. In addition, they will be giving concerts in many European cities and at renowned festivals such as the Klavierfestival Ruhr, the Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival, the Kissinger Sommer and the Schubertiade. These two pianists are making their debut with the Deutsche Kammer­philharmonie Bremen.
