It doesn't matter if Lang Lang is a good pianist or not, or if he is paid a lot for these master classes, teaching his art to young people with passion and gentleness, is the noblest thing in the existence of a man, and he does it with great sympathy and love. No doubt he is a beautiful and great person.
This is the first time for me to listen your lecture, you gave us so lyric and poetic Chopin, thank you for your lovely lesson. (90yrs.Japanese) sorry strange English.
I am a nothing "piano player" BUT I would be embarrassed to hear I played a song when I was age 12-and I'm MANY times that today. Lang Lang is introducing Rishi to the concept of bringing "sad" into playing. Of course, the older one gets and experiences life in all its iterations, sadness is expressed differently--that creates the colour in the music, from playing to performing.
I used to play this piece... it's very easy and sweet... the boy is far too harsh with the sound... I'm surprised that he was invited to a masterclass.
World-renowned pianist Lang Lang shared his enthusiasm and wisdom in an instructive and insightful masterclass in McConomy Auditorium last Tuesday. Dressed in a blazer and jeans, Lang was animated and introspective as he listened, directed, and critiqued the playing of three deserving pianists: Rishi Mirchandani of the Carnegie Mellon Music Preparatory School, Carnegie Mellon senior piano performance major Jimmy Liu, and Shannon Huang of Duquesne University’s Mary Pappert School of Music. Each student played quite well for Lang and the appreciative audience. Lang instructed not only in technique but also in musical phrasing and expression. To the young Mirchandani, age 12, Lang Lang emphasized the “waltz feeling” the player needed to portray in Chopin’s “Waltz in C# minor.” He sang along and directed the phrasing, at times interspersing rhythmic stomping to make a point about rhythm. Musically, Lang accentuated the “different colors” in Chopin’s dominant melody, in that in the second time in the piece the melody is played, it needed to sound like “a distant memory.” Mirchandani, who was awestruck by the classical star but impressively kept his composure, understood and agreed with this notion.
Thanks very much for this video. I always want to listen Lang Lang to play this piece to compare it with Yuja Wang's play. Chinese people said Yuja is the female version of Lang Lang and Yuja's response is that she is too feminine to be Lang Lang and would prefer Lang Lang to be the feminine version of Yuja. So it would be very interesting to compare Lang Lang's play with Yuja's. These two are two of the best pianists in our generation. This video at least gives me an idea how Long Long's performance of Op. 64 No. 2 would sound like.
Pseunition Langlang is a pop star among classical music performers. As a master performer, he is exaggerated. I think even Yundi Lee interprets better than him, not mention these older pianists, like Rubinstein, Horowitz, Polini... But Langlang did pay a lot of effort in music coaching, that was a nice contribution.
Аплодисменты -не награда для святых. Сия награда для людей тщеславных. Дела для Бога все творят без понятых, И для смиренных никого нет равных. Хотя они себя считают хуже всех, Их правая рука не видит левой, Не знает нищий Духом, значит, что успех, Хранимый Богом и Пречистой Девой. Не добродетель и труды ради нее Призрит Господь у нас для воздаянья, А за рождение от них СМИРЕНИЕ И лучшего нет в жизни ОЖИДАНЬЯ!
Because he's Lang Lang, one of the great pianists ever and it doesn't matter what he's wearing, the only thing that matters is what he has to say and teach us about music
Every celebrity wants to show themselves as high as possible!!! Great! But we teach students this every day of our live Where is the Spark, where is the Start. Could you teach average students all that things what you are talking about?? That one is not everage
@@daelilith4646 the thing is that from the audience’s perspective it’s more of a performance than watching a classroom. Imagine having to be taught a piece in front of 50 people watching you.

You are very kind and generous to help young people with their piano-playing skills
You’re loser
Avec un génial professeur comme þôi voilà le résultat !Bravo ❤
I really loved this.
Великолепный мастер- класс " Волшебство логического ударения в музыкальных фразах и его роль в понимании текста произведения".
Wish we could have a competition between Yuja and Lang Lang .Clash of the Titans!!!
Talent boy and perfekt teacher, thank you :-)
Божественно, волшебно!
Bravo !👏

Excellent teacher
Rishi Mirchandani performed as noted in the Carnegie Mellon Tartan.

Definitely not the best. What are you on about? Have you heard Krystian Zimerman?
Pseunition agree.
@@pseunition6038 Zimerman? Seriously? Only those without taste would consider Zimerman to be among the best. Zimerman is a Polish Liberace at best.

@@wwbdwwbd Would you mind elaborating on that?
Wonderful lesson 💖👍
What is a masterclass but the master showing how HE would play it? The student's performance here is superlative.

Where is the volume of the sound????????
Can’t hear the words
The boy has talent. Is he an Iranian?
Jew
Who cares about nationality, the young lad is very good,! 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🙌🙌🙌🙌
He was from Pittsburgh.
He needs a better teacher
He's an Indian
Absolutely bat sound
👍👍👍👍👍
What prevents Lang Lang from dressing properly for a classical piano event?
Why would you expect such a unique person to conform in such a boring way?
Because he's Lang Lang, one of the great pianists ever and it doesn't matter what he's wearing, the only thing that matters is what he has to say and teach us about music
at the beginnign the kid was playing way too strong and didnt respect any of chopin markings
Exactly... and this melody is soft and sweet... why was he invited to a masterclass if he doesn't have a basic level of musicality...?
Every celebrity wants to show themselves as high as possible!!!
Great!
But we teach students this every day of our live
Where is the Spark, where is the Start.
Could you teach average students all that things what you are talking about??
That one is not everage
If he makes a single mistake, the entire audience would laugh at him.
why?

😊
I’ve tried really tried to appreciate Lang Lang, but I find his playing dull and in uninspired. I promise I really have tried!
Strange…. I’ve had just the opposite reaction!! In. fact listen to him encourage this boy to add emotional turns. by tempo & crescendo!!!!
