Lang Lang - Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No. 2 - EPK Trailer

[gc0619]

Rachmaninov created an inspirational paradigm and Lang Lang let us recognizing it.

[urla544konut]

Lang Lang one of the best pianist of the world. Thanks for splendid Piano Concerto No. 2.

[macrossmatrix]

Evgeny Kissin does it better. Lang Lang is a great pianist, but Evgeny is far better.

[TheDardanius]

russian music is different, like the great composers rachminanof and tjackosovski.(i dont know hot ot spell it). their music is not serene, like lang lang describes it. but it is has got that sad romatic part in it, which brings you back to his time of life...

beautiful.

[xFirebird925x]

@TheDardanius hint: its Tchaikovsky lol :)

[omgwhtrudoing]

He's not in rushin'

[xFirebird925x]

走自己的路，让别人说去吧！ xD u rox!!!

[dmitrykrivonosov]

primitive playing such as his imagination

[SYNTHPAINTANN]

Truly an inspirational film

[federic017]

Che artista meraviglioso...grazie... saluti

[abmsghost]

Very good. Also listen to Leif Ove andsnes.

[NinoUrushadze1]

Bravo to Lang Lang ! I think that Rahmaninov's number 1 inspiration was his religion / faith so wide and huge and deep and ... and influensing compositions and Lang Lang's greatness here is in that he found and expressed rightly Rahmaninov's soul ! Wonderful :)

[castout888]

Lang Lang is an incredible pianist in his own way, isn't that what music is about? interpreting it the way YOU feel. I really appreciate his tremendous ability, although I sometimes can't agree with his interpretations. Probably the best technical pianist out there ...no doubt

[lisaj62]

Very Very nice - sorry some must try to spoil with bad posts, they don't get it because they are not listening <3

[LKLKILY]

This young man going become master. Keep up the work Lang Lang.

[manolobgg]

@bobosierap it sounds to me like you're quite racist yourself. In any case why are you talking about ruling or one race being better than other? it's hardly got anything to do with music.

[Brickybearable]

This is takes one away into a beautiful place...thankfully Lang Lang is coming to Syd next year where he will perform this highly emotional masterpiece....

[bobosierap]

Racist bastards are here again. Lang-Lang is one of the best pianist this century. He has a great technical skills and put sincere emotions when he's playing. Furthermore, he takes risks playing piano by doing his own unique interpretation rather than copying others' rendition. Deep down in your heart racist bastards, Lang-Lang is great. It's just pure jealousy. Asians are becoming better than other races. We asians are now ruling the world. America and Europe is on the decline. We rule.

[sarahconner11]

Would like to see a Concert with Dudamel, LangLang, and Bocelli ^_^

Lang Lang - Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No. 2 - EPK Trailer

[Garrettguy457]

Despite that the first minute of his playing i think is to strong on the piano, the rest of this interpertation is awesome. Lang Lang is a great pianist!

[lovesGenet]

don't read comments from little kids here. ths is a fabulous and very new interpretation. pogorelich fasinates for da wrong reasons but listen to this. This is really titanic! No sweet melancholia or movie tints here . Real Russian hardiness!

[her0esfan]

It sounds pretty good in these previews!

[4DTHINKER]

Just need to leave him alone. Stop disregarding him just because he is Chinese (and stop denying this fact and we all know that we are just jealous!) Deep down we all know that he is excellent as a young man and a musician (though we tend to lie to ourselves that he isn't). Time will tell how far he can go, but I am sure what he has achieved is more than enough! Yes, there are rooms for improvement, but I think he knows himself best!

[Asphyyxia]

Why are so many classical musicians so up with themselves in regards to lang lang?

This is a cliche, but if you really detest him so much why don't you go and tell him rather than pointlessly complaining 24/7 on youtube about his playing.

Anyway, he's a decent pianist; not saying he's the best, but he's decent and he possesses alot of emotion, evidently and also quite a uniquely adventurous style.

[kczapper]

The success of the performer lies in expression

[bieto2002]

I generally respect Gergiev for his talent, but I am disappointed at him for his comments on Lang Lang. I wonder how much money he received to give Bang Bang such praises. Look at his eyes when in the video. He is always looking away, not directly at the camera, as if he is trying to hide the fact that he is lying.

[lmaxim]

He is talking to the interviewer and it's acceptable to look on the person but not directly to the camera. Besides, Lang Lang is really one of the gratest pianists at this period of time, but this is my opinion

[fanjiatia]

I know right? Geez, how determined are people to prove that Lang Lang is bad? It would only look like he's lying if he kept staring at the camera, like he memorized a script.

[CHATRUCSONG]

please,try to hear Ashkenazy-Previn version...lang lang Gergiev is too big to your hands

[mkdfqfewqhnvp]

I like the way he describes Russian music.

[utopian1129]

omg i will go buy the cd right now, i love this

[orpheusads]

They are certainly from different worlds. Gergiev is a musician of greater darkness.

[ipvac1]

funny orchesta members faces from 00:44 to 00:54

[ipvac1]

I don't know what is doing lang lang with this conductor an this orchesta... they are opposite worlds

[DivineAegis]

In other countries, conductors often denote the "downbeat" with an upward motion of the baton. That is the case here.

[KevinR3i]

Rachmaninoff Masterpiece

[michaelfung615]

Agree that very much

[junebug1992]

it is not the same you must understand..

Western music has been 'universalized' since the beginning of the 20th century while music of Korea, for example, has been kept in the veil.

And another thing; Lang Lang and his expressions may be offensive and ridiculous to you, lokopiano, but they embody what the artist is trying to project to the audience. He represents the new wave of modern pianism; consider that maybe you are being too conservative.

[mrsunday810]

I agree, very much like Asian martial arts such as Taekwondo, Judo, Karate and Wushu have been universalized. Welcome to the 21th Century.

[789vbc]

You forgot to mention Hapkido, Tai Chi and Yoga.

[Dizintograte]

Love the bell symbolism!

[timmydimmy1234567]

I mean the technique....

[timmydimmy1234567]

He's so tense, hes gonna finish like Cziffra....

[acmol1]

first time i see lang lang being serious...nice!!!

[weenosu]

i like his playing, i do. but we can do without the chessy video cuts! i don't get anything out of him standing in a field with his eyes closed, get that out of my face.

[Kurtyoungblood]

Hear hear.

[IamHaddy]

word

[cauim]

[bubugaga28]

[jsjassem]
