About this listen

 Lang Lang started learning to play the piano when he was three years old in Shenyang, China. Today he is one of the world’s most outstanding pianists. In this engrossing life story, adapted by Michael French, Lang Lang not only recounts the difficult, often thrilling, events of his early days, but also shares his perspective on his rapidly changing homeland. He thoughtfully explores the differences between East and West, especially in the realm of classical music and cultural life. Shining through his rags-to-riches story of a child prodigy who came of age as a renowned musician, Lang Lang’s positive spirit, his dynamic personality, and his enduring passion for music will inspire listeners of all ages.

Lang Lang has long been my favourite pianist. it's been fascinating to hear about his development, musically and socially. His determination to succeed never wavered, even under the most trying conditions and criticism. His self-belief is a lesson to us all no matter what field we want to succeed in. A truly inspiring book. Thank you so much, Lang Lang!
