Lang Lang on Saint-Saëns 'Piano Concerto No.2 - I. Andante'

Classical favourites, musical discoveries and a pair of captivating large-scale works by Saint-Saëns make up the fantastic selection of French works on Lang Lang’s latest recording. Lang Lang – Saint-Saëns, set for release by Deutsche Grammophon on 2 CDs, 2 LPs and digitally on 1 March 2024, sees the Chinese superstar join forces with his wife, pianist Gina Alice, the Gewandhausorchester and Andris Nelsons.

At the heart of the album are the magical Carnival of the Animals, Saint-Saëns’s “Grand Zoological Fantasy” for two pianos and orchestra, and the virtuosic Piano Concerto No. 2. Also included are a dozen works for solo piano or piano four hands – a blend of Belle Époque favourites and neglected gems by female French composers.

I really love these short clips on explaining what’s going through Lang Lang’s mind in playing different pieces. Makes me appreciate classical music so much more.
Lang Lang has such a great imagination and willing to share with us. I still remember in one of his video he was playfully describing playing that phrase is like a mouse going back into its mouse hole, “Go Home! Go Home!” Love it!
This series makes classical music so much more interesting ❤
