VOLKHARD STEUDE III

Maurice Ravel had no children. Constanze Mozart bore six children to Wolfgang Amadeus. Two of them survived: Carl Thomas Mozart became a civil servant, and Franz Xaver Wolfgang became a composer and piano virtuoso. Dmitri Shostakovich had two children from his first marriage: Galina, who became a pianist, and Maxim, who was also a pianist and conductor. Volkhard Steude’s two sons, Eduard and Lorenz, share their father’s passion and are taking it forward to the future. The audience can see this for themselves as they perform with him in a programme of solo and duo pieces, accompanied by Almut Preuss-Niemeyer at the piano.
