its nice to see how he incorporates his energy and exuberance into his music (and be able to laugh at himself)... i guess the important thing about music isn't just to be able to play only the way the composer created it, but also to give it your own voice.
I wonder if Lang Lang ever listened to a piece of music played by one of the world's great musicians, past or present, and actually cried tears of emotion. Somehow I very much doubt it since I don't think he has that emotional capacity. For all I know it may not be a common trait in eastern culture even. Without that inherent 'soul' no musician can ever hope to be more than a flamboyant 'copy-typist', rattling out notes with speed and flourish but missing the point entirely. That's Lang Lang.
Lang Lang is innovative. In Classical Music, perfection is the norm. Ergo, his energy brings more to his performance.

I really do like him...and his "wide range of expression..."
but I think his big movements make him lose control. He seems so sloppy...just an opinion

@TwixCrazy If Lang Lang has a lot of expression then he does not know where to let it out, so he lets it out while playing piano!

no...but no one does. I think he means that he likes to show his emotions clearly on his face, and goes in public a lot...just what i think
