Lang Lang- Mozart: Sonata in C, K. 545, Allegro

[@TheTTstudio]

Recently I've been really impressed with LangLang's performance. He has town down his showmanship and focus more on musicality and the result is breathtaking. Take this performance, for example. Genius.

[@daviddembrow6346]

You're so right. When I first saw this clip, I thought, he's actually a "mench."

The obvious question is why aren’t you a fan of Lang Lang? He’s brilliant on the piano, and charming and humble as a person, or at least he’s a great actor while lacking charm and humility. And if his playing is anything less than superb, I haven't heard it.

[@Jarnagua]

@@blogleftbanker All true! His interpretations have been "weird," like he doesn't understand what the piece is supposed to say. Remember him playing ONE with Metallica - it was a jaw dropping display of virtuosity that completely missed the entire mood and tone of the song. He was grinning ear to ear from start to finish. LOL. It's not his technique, but his taste that I question - but I really DO respect him for being different and having the courage to stand out as a classical pianist. His virtuosity is beyond reproach.

[@bossa-c1f]

Noufel it is it’s in the beginner syllabus and I can sight read it lol

[@OganySupreme]

I still hold the opinion that Lang Lang is the best pianist. He makes the piano sound in ways I've never heard of before. Absolutely breathtaking and inspiring! Lingling would be proud!

[@daveausmunchen7787]

No mate he isn’t. Yes he’s phenomenal and with his positivity gives the impression that he really enjoys himself which is important, but I’ll give you a little homework now. Watch his version of Liszt Hungarian rhapsody no 2 (rearrangement of course) then compare it with Valentina Lisita and then Horowitz himself. You will hear a dramatic increase in quality every single time and all 3 are/ were phenomenal players no doubt.

Usually an ardent detractor, this time, I am praising this performance as possibly the best example of playing Mozart on the piano. Mozart can be appreciated at different levels. He is taking care of all these. The sounds he coaxes from this half a million dollar 'designer' piano are lovely, but what impresses is the imagination behind every phase and, rare for Dr Lang, capturing the right style in a self-effacing way. As he is enormously influential, especially to young learners, I only wish he would pronounce 'Mozart' correctly.

[@timspiano5054]

​​​​@@richardvolpe7664 I do think that Lang Lang's passion as well as his dynamic range and pedalling makes a great impact on this Mozart piece. I definitely agree that Lang Lang is an amazing pianist, and this piece might be easy for him but the extra details he adds and dynamics can be quite hard for many pianists. It also is very hard to achieve such a difficult level of performance for many pianists, such as myself. So I admire his skill for the instrument 😃 P.S. He obviously put the work effort into the piece and he probably repeated until each execution of the notes were perfect. So that is why it is incredible and so effortless for him. Well done Lang Lang 😊

[@richardvolpe7664]

Passion? In this cheerful little piece? Lang's use of dynamic shadings (and forget the pedalling thing!) isn't the least bit unusual for any skilled pianist. The demands made by this "Easy Sonata" (as Mozart himself labeled it) are about as minimal as can be, so don't be so impressed by this performance, the "excellence" of which could be easily attained by any well-taught pianist.
