“To play 10 concertos is one of my greatest wishes in life. What’s more, I really appreciate the chance to collaborate with my master Barenboim, in my motherland, in Beijing.”
— China’s golden boy pianist Lang Lang was presenting a gift of 10 concertos for the 10th Beijing Music Festival (BMF) starting September 21. This may not happen again in the next 10 years. From any aspect, whether physical, spiritual or artistic, it’s never been an easy task for a musician to play ten concertos within one month.
