“Conducting the MDR Symphony Orchestra was Karsten Januschke, who already enjoys a very good reputation. The reason why became clear in the “Reiheins” concert. Januschke breathed new life into Dvorak's Symphony 'From the New World'. This is no hyped-up young star flailing about on the podium to push himself into the Best Of list, but rather a great talent working on sophisticated ways of connecting the musical work to musical partners. The enthusiastic final applause was warmly shared by orchestra and conductor together.”
Leipziger Volkszeitung on the concert at Gewandhaus Leipzig
Within the space of a few years, Karsten Januschke has made a name for himself in the field of concerts and opera as a great talent of the younger generation of conductors. Characterised by a natural authority and an expressive conducting technique, his communication with orchestras, soloists and singers is commanding and collegial. The prerequisite for his rehearsals is an in-depth study of the work in hand, and he takes an approach that combines a clear sound concept with great efficiency producing concerts and performances of extraordinary emotion and artistic flexibility.
In the current season, Karsten Januschke conducts Don Giovanni and Così fan tutte at the National Theatre Prague, Die Zauberflöte at Staatsoper Stuttgart, La Gazza Ladra at Oper Frankfurt, Requiem für einen jungen Dichter at Staatstheater Darmstadt as well as the Staatskapelle Halle, the MDR-Sinfonieorchester and the Orchestra of the Tiroler Festspiele.
Most recently, he made his debuts at the National Theatre Prague and the New National Theatre Tokyo with Don Giovanni, the Bayerische Staatsoper with a new production of Der Diktator/Der zerbrochene Krug, at the Staatsoper Stuttgart, the Volksoper Wien or the Staatstheater Darmstadt, and returned to the Oper Frankfurt (new productions of Lost Highway by Olga Neuwirth and Händel’s Tamerlano), to Bregenz (Fidelio) and the Oper im Steinbruch St. Margarethen (Die Zauberflöte).
In the symphonic realm, he has conducted the MDR-Sinfonieorchester, the DSO Berlin, the Münchner Rundfunkorchester, the Beethoven Orchester Bonn, the RSO Wien, the Budapest Philharmonic and Ensemble Modern amongst others.
A defining period in Karsten Januschke‘s career was spent at the Oper Frankfurt where he was solo repetiteur from 2008 and subsequently became Kapellmeister. He conducted works from every era here, such as Don Carlos, La Traviata, Hansel and Gretel, or Bartók’s Bluebeard. Mozart‘s works soon emerged as a particular focus and his spirited and energetic renditions, especially of the Da Ponte operas, have confirmed his position as an expert.
Originally from Schleswig-Holstein, Karsten Januschke studied piano and musicology, and completed his conducting studies with Prof. Georg Mark at the Vienna Conservatoire with honours. During this time, he worked at the Vienna State Opera as a solo repetiteur and conductor of children‘s operas, as well as at the Theater an der Wien and later at the Bayreuth Festival.
