This is a very good and warm interviewer. He brought out the best in Lang Lang.

[@sclau2958]

Classical music may take a bit longer time to understand but when you get it, it stays in your heart ❤️

[@LLismyPianoHero]

I love Lang Lang. He is right, Chopin is a great way to exercise your heart! It's the only heart exercise, I get, matter of fact, and my heart is still beating and it will still go on!

[@manueladevilliers5301]

It must be very fulfilling to imagine how the music must sound and then shape it exactly as you want it. Langlang is a true master

[@audreydowney6605]

Lang Lang has a big heart! So proud of you and your family!

[@greaterbayareahero1401]

This is one of the best interviews of Lang Lang I’ve seen. Tavis asked all the right questions to get the level of depth we wanted to hear and appreciate from Lang Lang. Lang Lang is my idol on and off screen because he is just a quality person inside and out.

[@TheStmoore]

When you follow a leader you become a leader... I'm not surprised over 40,000 children are taking up Piano with such wonderful and inspiring leadership from Lang Lang... I could listen to him all day!!

[@byheavenlyhosts1]

Lang Lang is amazingly great...and shares himself so well...so inspiring!!! I love him!

[@lilyforest1907]

You need to start loving what you do first.That's truth.

[@andrecirillo]

That was a great interview!

[@goodcyrus]

Thumbs up Lang Lang!

[@sun-wo9vp]

7:34 my fav question on the interview. Leaving this here so i can watch this again

[@xl7131]

I don't know if Tavis is a musician or not, but he asked the most beautiful questions on behalf of the viewing public, for a regular reporter in regards to the world of the arts, an artist, and their creative process. Most interviewers can't scratch the surface on these topics with real artists. Tavis needs more exposure and support on the Mainstream level.

J'aime Lang Lang pour son génie musical exceptionnel pour sa prestance son petit côté coquin et sa gentillesse ❤

[@youngpianist]

"This year's better ... maybe I slept some more" - love it!

[@manueladevilliers5301]

[@marielenaquesada915]

Exelente, Lang Lang,el mejor pianista de este ciglo. (podrian ser las entrevistas en Spañol)

[@eveeludbrook]

A great interview! It's so good to hear the reasons behind the album and your thoughts on the interpretations. =) On a different note, you've lost a lot of weight! Hope they're not working you too hard! =P

[@collj86]

One thing I always liked about Lang Lang is his how do you say. Sorry English not my first language But I’ve always loved Lang Lang’s langiness lol

[@artfulseoul]

keep the faith~

[@sophieworsley2110]

Chopin has a special place in everyone's heart.

[@jyu5560]

long long is actually the more precise way to pronounce his name, its not how you would normally say lang lang in english

[@yingwang4240]

It's funny. Really funny. I laughed to tears.

[@JackPillowy]

Hahas he is so expressive you can totally tell his reactions to whatever that guy said

[@mcrettable]

It would be so amazing if he could learn the Liszt transcriptions of Beethoven's symphonies :D

[@linlindaschun6117]

¿porque no traducen al español?

[@landlordfromhell]

Why isn't he more famous than PSY?

[@TheLianalei]

landlordfromhell: I think the main stream prefer to be entertain and PSY's had his 15 minutes of fame from that. Lang Lang has a brilliant and creative take on classical music will live on and continue to inspire those that appreciate classical music and particularly the piano. His first teacher Professional Zhu gave him and his parents great advice that she hopes Lang Lang's piano career will be long and get better over time. 30 years later Lang Lang has shown that he took his teacher's wisdom to heart.

[@grosejay]

LOOOOOOONG LOOOOOONG

[@lucasm.b.4390]

. Long Long? Seriously?

[@cyc20976]

Chinese way of pronouncing it does sounds like Longlong, the presentator probably knows this and wanted to stay true to the pronunciation.

[@petermaguire8084]

looooong loooong. Cringe.

[@xiaozhang9883]

I just hated when a host can't even pronounce a name right. It's LANG LANG, not LOOONNNG, DONNNG.

[@cyc20976]

Actually the chinese way of pronouncing it does sound like Long long, with a difference in tone with the first and second Long.
