A week in Japan

I am off to Kyoto to play my Japanese debut with the Kyoto Symphony under Ryusuke Numajiri, performing the Dvorak Concerto and two recitals for cello solo.  As a passionate and always hungry lover of the Japanese cuisine and culture I could not be more happy about this coming week since this is a long- awaited debut for me. Exciting times!

About Julian Steckel

“As an interpreter, I’ve started trusting my inner life more and letting the audience in. It’s a kind of vulnerability that makes you stronger.”

Written music is potential energy that a performer must unleash. Audiences can tell if a musician really feels that energy, or if their expression is second-hand. When Julian plays, he is sharing something fragile and alive.
