Pianist Lang Lang
Whenever Lang studies abroad or take recital tours around the world,
his father always accompanies him In times of trouble, father and son joins like
close friends to overcome difficulties. Lang Quoren said he would "retire" at
60.
Lang Lang is an obedient son. He has bought several apartments for his
parents and squeezes time to be with his parents as much as possible.
Lang's warmest memory is of eating dumplings and looking through the family
albums with his family. Whenever he remembers this, at that moment, he is a boy
rather than a pianist.
A Piano Teach Standing on the
Platform
Lang has established a master class to improve the skill of students who play
the piano. His class is so popular that often there is not enough room, forcing
some students to stand in the aisles or even the hallway. Lang carefully listens
to his students playing, patiently instructs them, sincerely encourages them,
and compliments them. Lang likes this interactive communication very much. He
humorously named the master class as a chat meeting.
To his pride and joy, Lang's platform extended to his Alma Mater. In 2005,
the Central Conservatory of Music employed Lang as a visiting professor. Lang
couldn't help kissing the employment certificate. He said that he often dreamed
of being a visiting professor of his Alma Mater, adding the certificate was his
highest honor.
Although this dream of Lang came true, he continues to surpass himself by
pursuing new dreams. At the same time, he helps pianist hopefuls to realize
their own dreams.
The Wonderful Future
As for Lang, while last year was fruitful, this year is even more promising.
On Janaury17, Lang Lang will hold a solo piano concert in the People's Great
Hall in Beijing.
Lang chose the People's Great Hall for two reasons, according to a person
responsible for the solo. One is that the People's Great Hall has special
meaning, as Lang has always dreamed of holding a concert in the largest music
hall in China. The other is that Lang's success depends on his capacity and
charm. Therefore what he brings audiences is not only enchanting music but also
the spirit of effort and the firm pursuit of dreams. With this, the People's
Great Hall is large enough for more Chinese to enter Lang Lang's music and his
soul.
