Tchaikovsky / Chopin
How would you describe Lang Lang in just one word? A single word to illustrate the man, the musician and everybody he touches with his music... That word would probably be "inspiration".
He inspires millions with his open-hearted, emotive playing, whether it be in intimate recitals or on the grandest of stages – such as the 2014 World Cup concert in Rio, with Placido Domingo, to celebrate the final game; the 56th and 57th GRAMMY Award two years in a row, where he performed with Metallica and Pharrell Williams; the Opening Ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympics, where more than four billion people around the world viewed his performance; the Last Night of the Proms at London’s Royal Albert Hall, or the Liszt 200th birthday concert with the Philadelphia Orchestra and Charles Dutoit which was broadcast live in more than 300 movie theaters around the United States and 200 cinemas across Europe (the first classical music cinema cast to be headlined by a solo artist).
He is the symbol of the future for Chinese youth, a true musical phenomenon. Keeping track of all his performances is almost impossible. In fact, for the first time ever, Steinway has named a piano after a musician.
Yet he never forgets what first inspired, and continues to inspire him. Great artists, above all the great composers – Liszt, Chopin and the others – whose music he now delights in bringing to others. Lang Lang radiates inspiration everywhere he goes. His concert at BOZAR on November 1 will be a truly unforgettable experience.
