This is absolutely magnificent!!! He's the one who truly felt that piece of music

It is a gift to have such heavenly sounds flowing through one's fingertips, truly. His expression only emphasizes this.

I can’t play fast and smooth like Lang Lang. The polyrhythms runs are tricky. This piece is a piece of cake for him. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

This piece has become one of my all time favorites over this past year. I play it almost everyday and sometimes makes me tear up when I'm sad. Given how old it is and the story behind it during that time during Liszt's life; I always end up thinking about my Grandma (who introduced me to piano a couple of years ago) and can't wait to see her this Thanksgiving. At the same time, I imagine Liszt and her sitting on either side of me when I play this. It really is a consolation... P.S. Lang Lang puts his heart and gut when he plays this and I feel that.

It might be something to do with the fact his good friend Chopin died just before he composed this. Consolation No. 3 was written as a tribute to Chopin and was an interpretation of his Nocturne Op. 27 No. 2 which is in the same key D-Flat major with a similar arpeggio in the left hand and starts with the same F (major third) note. I'm not entirely sure if this is what Andrew Chalk here is reffering to however I'm sure Liszt would have been upset that his inspirational and equally talented friend had gone from this world. Pianists/composers like that don't come about too often

Some of his dynamic choices are a bit strange but what i cant deny is how he ends this piece. The last few chords are so emotional especially the last twowhich i feel are perfect dynamics and phrasing wise

Lang Lang plays this composition with great virtuosity; who cares about his grimaces and faces; so did Glenn Gould, and so do many current virtuosos like David Fray, Andre Watts, and others. It's his prerogative and his personal expression. He's in a rapture in his music. It's shallow to criticize him for that.

@eyesontheprize6637 2 жыл бұрын

I love any expression. I never totally understood it until I picked up more difficult pieces and as I attempt to play them I feel myself on the verge of tears. So, now I totally understand it.

@pborgia1 Жыл бұрын

You're correct that it is his personal prerogative but his antics are also disconcerting to many who find the actions distracting to the music which is generally outstanding. I personally prefer not to watch him play. Watching most other concert pianists makes a positive contribution to a performance.

Why does everyone think that Lang Lang's faces are bad / fake? Music is an emotion and any piano player can tell you it is much easier to convey emotions in your music if you make yourself feel that emotion and become immersed in it; showing emotion on your face helps this process.

Lang Lang plays Liszt's Consolation No.3 in London's Albert Hall, 10 September 2011. questo pianista, a soli 29 anni, aveva già grandi e fantastiche capacità espressive. il mio cuore e la mia anima vivono per le melodie di Listz ma a trascinarmi nella bellezza pura delle frasi musicali di questo brano sono le mani di questo giovane pianista. egli ha uno stile personalissimo che riesce a conquistare totalmente l'attenzione di chi lo vede e sente suonare .... egli mi meraviglia continuamente per le grandi doti che possiede.

Lang Lang is an extrovert. I saw him being interviewed in Chinese, and he never stopped talking and laughing away. I guess that's why he must have his facial expressions while immersing himself into the music, or maybe that's how he remembers the tempo, coda etc.. Some people say he showed-off, I beg to differ and say that's just his style. Anyway, I love his way of playing piano, much more exciting and commucative. I don't like to watch a still man with a stern-face playing piano, period!
