0:01:35 > 0:01:39Both of my parents had their musical dream.
0:01:39 > 0:01:44Somehow they achieved a little bit but not much and they basically
0:01:44 > 0:01:47give hope that their son
0:01:47 > 0:01:52will finish their childhood musical dreams.
0:02:11 > 0:02:18For me there is always my parents, or just my father or just my mother.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22They are a big part of my career and life.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14No matter how good a technique you have,
0:03:14 > 0:03:17if you have no emotion, you are just a machine.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19And the world doesn't need another machine pianist,
0:03:19 > 0:03:22we need a real human being to have the mind, the heart,
0:03:22 > 0:03:26the guts - they all need to be together.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Every time you look into a score, you learn new things.
0:03:31 > 0:03:35Also, I am trying to get the mood... Set the mood right, you know?
0:03:35 > 0:03:40To get this concentration, to get everything, you know, ready.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44That's the good thing about music,
0:03:44 > 0:03:48there is always a new way of presenting it.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51To bring it into a different dimension.
0:03:51 > 0:03:55If you always think about the same way of interpreting music,
0:03:55 > 0:03:56you're out.
0:04:00 > 0:04:05I don't want to be just a pianist,
0:04:05 > 0:04:10I want to be someone who can influence the next generation.
0:04:21 > 0:04:26This is Lang Lang, aged five - the apple of his parents' eye.
0:04:30 > 0:04:34I think to develop really extraordinary musical ability
0:04:34 > 0:04:35at a really early age
0:04:35 > 0:04:39requires a certain amount of parental pressure.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42And sometimes that parental pressure works out beautifully,
0:04:42 > 0:04:45and sometimes it turns into a disaster.
0:04:52 > 0:04:57Lang Lang is a real example of brilliance honed by punishment.
0:04:57 > 0:05:02His father fostered a kind of almost lunatic competitiveness.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06I don't know how he survived, he obviously has done.
0:05:06 > 0:05:12And to be such a joyous performer, and a very joyous person, I think.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15He has immense personal unaffected charm.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19A lot of other people would not have survived.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24CLASSICAL MUSIC BEGINS
0:05:27 > 0:05:31He has an extraordinary facility,
0:05:31 > 0:05:38a very unusual sensitivity of how he reacts to
0:05:38 > 0:05:43harmony changes, to mood changes.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55Lang Lang has become a worldwide phenomenon,
0:05:55 > 0:05:57playing sell-out concerts whenever he goes.
0:05:57 > 0:06:02But his expressive style draws criticism too.
0:06:02 > 0:06:07He is seeing things through modern eyes,
0:06:07 > 0:06:15so his approach to playing is possibly different from the norm.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Performers in the past got outrageous reviews for what they did,
0:06:25 > 0:06:27because they were different.
0:06:27 > 0:06:31Partly the critics think it's ego from Lang Lang.
0:06:31 > 0:06:36What they miss, perhaps, is his genuine personality underneath that.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40He's able to bring music to the masses, and that is a real gift.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53APPLAUSE
0:08:36 > 0:08:41I am actually used to this kind of speed, I kind of enjoy it.
0:08:41 > 0:08:47It is a life that everyone dreams to have as artists.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51But, certainly, it's not very normal.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56There is a big split, isn't there, between people who have money
0:08:56 > 0:09:00and are beginning to do well, and people who still don't?
0:09:00 > 0:09:04It is a much bigger split than before during the '80s, but obviously
0:09:04 > 0:09:09in China, the whole generation only has one kid, so you have your parents
0:09:09 > 0:09:17and you have your grandparents from different sides and they...
0:09:17 > 0:09:19They are all concentrated on you.
0:09:19 > 0:09:26So, in a way, even if you're not in a good position money-wise,
0:09:26 > 0:09:29you still get a lot of attention.
0:09:42 > 0:09:43CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:10:31 > 0:10:36People are very suspicious of outward glamour. People think,
0:10:36 > 0:10:39"Oh, this is out of control, this is too much."
0:10:39 > 0:10:44The green-eyed monster of jealousy plays its part.
0:10:44 > 0:10:49When Liszt was alive, Liszt was the ultimate showman,
0:10:49 > 0:10:51possibly the greatest pianist who has ever lived,
0:10:51 > 0:10:55hugely flamboyant, and, oh, people hated it!
0:10:59 > 0:11:01He is, in a way, unbelievably famous
0:11:01 > 0:11:03in the West as the Chinese pianist,
0:11:03 > 0:11:06and he is unbelievably famous in China as the pianist
0:11:06 > 0:11:08who is able to transcend his Chineseness
0:11:08 > 0:11:11and become an international classical music star.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16He has been very canny in playing the cultures against one another.
0:11:31 > 0:11:36Lang Lang grew up in the industrial city of Shenyang in North East China
0:11:36 > 0:11:38where his father was a factory worker.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43But he harboured a secret ambition.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25During these short breaks,
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Lang Lang was allowed to watch cartoons
0:13:27 > 0:13:30on a small black-and-white television.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35The Cat Concerto from the Tom and Jerry cartoon,
0:13:35 > 0:13:39I can still feel that, almost like yesterday.
0:13:41 > 0:13:47Tom was dressed up in a tuxedo with tails and with a white tie,
0:13:47 > 0:13:50and for a Chinese at that time,
0:13:50 > 0:13:53we didn't normally wear that kind of stuff.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57And then he starts playing...
0:14:02 > 0:14:05And then he wakes up the little mouse, Jerry.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17They start fighting with...
0:14:19 > 0:14:21..getting faster and faster...
0:14:23 > 0:14:28..and then the way the cartoon made his hands almost like Italian spaghetti.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35And I'm like, "Wow, being a pianist is cool!"
0:14:37 > 0:14:39I thought it was a lot of fun.
0:14:39 > 0:14:44You have the white keys and the black Keys, it's almost like a game,
0:14:44 > 0:14:49but then I realised it is not a game,
0:14:49 > 0:14:52it is not a practice.
0:14:57 > 0:15:02Did you, from the very beginning, you were a tough taskmaster?
0:15:37 > 0:15:40I don't listen to him, he gets really mad.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42He said some really serious stuff.
0:15:42 > 0:15:46I got a real bad time with him sometimes.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50He made me cry and he tried to scare me
0:15:50 > 0:15:55if I don't do the right things, so yeah.
0:16:06 > 0:16:11Whatever natural flair or talent you have, you have to hone it.
0:16:11 > 0:16:15It's a craft and I think the brilliance at the beginning
0:16:15 > 0:16:20as you go on has to become more and more something you work at.
0:16:20 > 0:16:25The bigger the talent, the harder you discipline it and hone it
0:16:25 > 0:16:30all the time into something that has a huge foundation behind it.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36A teacher has a huge responsibility.
0:16:39 > 0:16:40His father found out
0:16:40 > 0:16:44that I was the best teacher in Shenyang at the time
0:16:44 > 0:16:46and he wanted me to teach him
0:16:46 > 0:16:49so he brought him to my house.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52The first impressions were of such a brilliant kid.
0:16:56 > 0:17:01He had a very strong will, a determination at such an early age.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05He said he would practise hard,
0:17:05 > 0:17:08he was willing to do anything in order to be a good pianist.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12His father always came with Lang Lang.
0:17:12 > 0:17:17When I taught Lang Lang anything, he was studying at the same time.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20Very, very intelligent person.
0:17:20 > 0:17:25So he was helping Lang Lang musically a lot.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28He loves his mother.
0:17:28 > 0:17:32He has very strong emotions especially for his mother.
0:17:32 > 0:17:37His father is someone that, although he was afraid of him,
0:17:37 > 0:17:39but he needs him also.
0:17:39 > 0:17:43I think his relation to his father is love and hate.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46Love and hate!
0:17:46 > 0:17:51But also later on he understood that his father helped him a lot
0:17:51 > 0:17:53on the other end.
0:18:14 > 0:18:20In China now, everybody wants a little bit of the Lang Lang effect.
0:18:20 > 0:18:25You can see little children as small as five who are absolutely
0:18:25 > 0:18:27enthralled by watching him.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30There aren't many children that would normally go to
0:18:30 > 0:18:34a classical piano recital and sit quietly and listen.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37But they are, he communicates to children.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39So I think he's inspired them.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48The piano is increasingly popular in China.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51There are said to be 40-50 million children learning to play
0:18:51 > 0:18:56and a growing demand for more instruments.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59This factory in Guangzhou, one of the biggest in the world,
0:18:59 > 0:19:04makes over 120,000 a year.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Some attribute this interest to Lang Lang's
0:19:06 > 0:19:10influence on a generation of Chinese children.
0:19:10 > 0:19:15The piano has become the focus, not just for musical achievement,
0:19:15 > 0:19:16but for the prestige,
0:19:16 > 0:19:21wealth and success that a childhood studying music can bring.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29Now Lang Lang has opened his own music school in Shenzhen
0:19:29 > 0:19:33in south China, one of the fastest growing cities in the world.

0:19:55 > 0:20:01Education, you really need to really spend time and make efforts.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04I don't have a lot of personal time, but I think it's worth it
0:20:04 > 0:20:07because I think I can influence other people.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11I really enjoy doing it.
0:20:13 > 0:20:18The school officially started right after the Chinese dragon year,
0:20:18 > 0:20:19so it's a good year.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24Actually this year I'm turning 30
0:20:24 > 0:20:28so it's kind of a new milestone for my life as well.
0:20:32 > 0:20:36You need to put everything into the hands, getting deeper but not loud.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39Not loud, intimate. Try it one more time.
0:20:48 > 0:20:53Let me make sure you... Hold on, hold on. Rise note.
0:20:57 > 0:21:01You need to be off here. Off.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Off.
0:21:04 > 0:21:07Yeah. Yes.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12It's too loud, too loud.
0:21:12 > 0:21:18'Really wonderful playing already.
0:21:18 > 0:21:23'I feel the way he plays, very serious, like a little gentleman.'
0:21:23 > 0:21:24Yes, that's right.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37You need to be more careful.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54Right, it's a little bit like a cat, OK. The cat's walk.
0:21:58 > 0:22:04Nice. Bom, bom, bom. Changing colours.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17Da da da! Yes. Yeah.
0:22:24 > 0:22:29OK, hold on. Your left hand needs to be precise. From soft, yes.
0:22:29 > 0:22:33LANG LANG HUMS ALONG
0:22:49 > 0:22:51Lonely again.
0:22:58 > 0:23:02They need to connect, no matter what piece they are playing,
0:23:02 > 0:23:04whether it's hard or simple.
0:23:06 > 0:23:11They need to bring a whole planet into their interpretations.
0:23:11 > 0:23:16How they react, the chemistry from music,
0:23:16 > 0:23:18the chemistry from the harmonies.
0:23:18 > 0:23:25For us, the important thing is not only the students get it,
0:23:25 > 0:23:27but teachers get it.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30First challenge for us it to train the teachers.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32Today, we have a new audition.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36HE PLAYS A SOMBRE TUNE
0:24:57 > 0:25:00With students, I intend to be a little bit softer.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03But with teachers, come on, we are all taught.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21She's not upset, she's not very happy about herself.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24I'm just saying, please play the scales and I like to know.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26When she didn't do well, she knows it and then
0:25:26 > 0:25:33she feels a little bit weird, so she started to cry a little bit.
0:25:33 > 0:25:38But I think it's absolutely normal, you know.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40When I am not doing well, I will cry too.
0:25:40 > 0:25:46We need to be critical to ourself. You can't just let it go.
0:25:49 > 0:25:54Of course, bringing the passion and love to music is necessary,
0:25:54 > 0:26:00but they also need to find a really nice method to show
0:26:00 > 0:26:04one step at a time how to be a chief on the keys.
0:27:42 > 0:27:46THEY PLAY A FANFARE
0:27:46 > 0:27:52The 1960s was a period of political upheaval in China.
0:27:52 > 0:27:56The Cultural Revolution was Chairman Mao's attempt to create
0:27:56 > 0:28:00a classless society through a series of radical reforms.
0:28:00 > 0:28:04Anyone suspected of spreading Western influence
0:28:04 > 0:28:06or promoting capitalism was persecuted.
0:29:06 > 0:29:10During the Cultural Revolution, according to Mao,
0:29:10 > 0:29:16every young person has to be accepted, re-education,
0:29:16 > 0:29:22sent to the countryside apart from family,
0:29:22 > 0:29:24plant the rice.
0:29:24 > 0:29:26I was there too.
0:29:29 > 0:29:34I went to the countryside working like a farmer.
0:29:35 > 0:29:41Anything from the West was something bad.
0:29:41 > 0:29:44I think I stopped playing piano for eight years.
0:29:46 > 0:29:54One day, we suddenly hear all the speakers turned on.
0:29:54 > 0:30:01We don't know why this funeral music started. And it says, "Mao died."
0:30:03 > 0:30:06As soon as I heard Mao died,
0:30:06 > 0:30:11I went back, packed my belongings.
0:30:11 > 0:30:13I said, "I'm going home now!"
0:30:16 > 0:30:20Lang Lang's father and mother, they loved music.
0:30:20 > 0:30:23They themselves wanted to be good musicians
0:30:23 > 0:30:26but they didn't have the chance to
0:30:26 > 0:30:30but then, they put all their hope on their child.
0:30:50 > 0:30:52After the Cultural Revolution,
0:30:52 > 0:30:57when China's door getting opened up again gradually,
0:30:57 > 0:30:59the piano became the first instrument.
0:30:59 > 0:31:03Even during my time, when you're in piano competitions,
0:31:03 > 0:31:06there are like, thousands of applicants,
0:31:06 > 0:31:10you know, in a small town, not big towns, thousands of kids.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25Professor Zhu, from the very beginning,
0:31:25 > 0:31:29gave me every week a new Bach work
0:31:29 > 0:31:31and I am to memorise it for the next week.
0:32:11 > 0:32:15For such a kid so talented like Lang Lang,
0:32:15 > 0:32:19he should expose himself to a wider music world,
0:32:19 > 0:32:23and Shenyang is a local place, it's provincial.
0:32:24 > 0:32:27Culturally, it's not a good place
0:32:27 > 0:32:30so we decided that he should go to Beijing.
0:32:46 > 0:32:49We have only nine conservatories in the whole country.
0:32:49 > 0:32:52In order to get into that level
0:32:52 > 0:32:54before going for the examination,
0:32:54 > 0:32:56they have to stop two years
0:32:56 > 0:33:01just to stay home and practise eight to ten hours every day.
0:33:28 > 0:33:33Mum actually told me that she is leaving tomorrow to go home
0:33:33 > 0:33:36and I said, "Take me." She said, "No, no, you're staying here.
0:33:36 > 0:33:39"I'm going back." Then I realise
0:33:39 > 0:33:42my life will be changed forever.
0:33:42 > 0:33:46The reality has become quite cruel.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51At that moment, I felt kind of lost.
0:33:56 > 0:34:00We were actually living in the slum area,
0:34:00 > 0:34:02so I didn't like Beijing so much.
0:34:46 > 0:34:52Beijing people like to have a long evening having fun.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55So they can't get up in the morning at 5:30,
0:34:55 > 0:34:58so gradually, they fall asleep and we already start playing.
0:35:01 > 0:35:04Kind of boring stuff, you know, the scales.
0:35:04 > 0:35:06And then the chords
0:35:06 > 0:35:08and then the octave scales.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11It just, I think, drove them nuts.
0:35:12 > 0:35:15GLASS BREAKS
0:35:35 > 0:35:37With only a few months to go
0:35:37 > 0:35:39before Lang Lang would sit the entrance exam
0:35:39 > 0:35:41for the Beijing Conservatory,
0:35:41 > 0:35:43a new teacher was urgently needed.
0:35:47 > 0:35:52I knew something was wrong the first time when I went to her apartment.
0:35:52 > 0:35:55It was in a very dark hallway.
0:35:55 > 0:35:57HE KNOCKS
0:35:57 > 0:35:59And you see this tiny woman came out.
0:36:00 > 0:36:02"What do you have?" I start playing.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09"What else do you play?
0:36:09 > 0:36:13"Wrong! Bad! No talent!"
0:36:13 > 0:36:17"Horrible!" Then, "You shouldn't play piano any more."
0:36:32 > 0:36:35"You will never get into the Conservatory.
0:36:35 > 0:36:39"You will never become a pianist. Go home, do something else."
0:36:39 > 0:36:41She fired me, so...
0:38:10 > 0:38:14HE PLAYS BACH'S PARTITA NO. 1
0:38:16 > 0:38:19On that day, the nine-year-old Lang Lang
0:38:19 > 0:38:22vowed that he would never play the piano again.
0:38:55 > 0:38:59I have been moved by Lang Lang's performances
0:38:59 > 0:39:01because I've heard a joyous quality
0:39:01 > 0:39:03and that is very heartening.
0:39:03 > 0:39:06It's wonderful to hear people with this utter delight in performing.
0:39:06 > 0:39:10He's a born performer. He loves being out there.
0:39:19 > 0:39:22It's almost easy for him to play the piano.
0:39:22 > 0:39:24In a sense, playing the piano itself
0:39:24 > 0:39:27doesn't mean anything. What means something
0:39:27 > 0:39:30is what you make of the music and what your insights are
0:39:30 > 0:39:32and how you really explore that music.
0:39:39 > 0:39:41The good thing about Lang Lang is he's always exploring,
0:39:41 > 0:39:44he's always playing music he hasn't played before
0:39:44 > 0:39:46and I think that's part of every artist's growth.
0:39:46 > 0:39:50Nobody should be playing in their comfort zone.
0:40:01 > 0:40:07In a curious way, I sometimes think that his triumphs as a musician
0:40:07 > 0:40:10are partly a matter of winning a competition with his father,
0:40:10 > 0:40:12of his father having always said,
0:40:12 > 0:40:15"You're never really going to measure up to this,"
0:40:15 > 0:40:18and he finally said, "You know what?
0:40:18 > 0:40:20"I can actually do it better than even you had in mind.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22"You just wait and see."
0:40:39 > 0:40:42Enraged by the encounter with his father,
0:40:42 > 0:40:45Lang Lang hadn't played the piano for months.
0:40:49 > 0:40:54One day, dejected and alone, he wandered into the local food market.
0:40:59 > 0:41:02'Tapping the surface of a watermelon to see if it was ripe,
0:41:02 > 0:41:06'Lang Lang caught the attention of the storeholder,
0:41:06 > 0:41:09'a man whose friendship would change Lang Lang's life.'
0:41:30 > 0:41:33I say yeah, I was a retired pianist and they were, "How old are you?"
0:41:33 > 0:41:36I say, "Nine-and-a-half," "You're retired?! Are you crazy?"
0:41:58 > 0:42:02The man who became a lifelong friend
0:42:02 > 0:42:04was duly named Uncle Number Two.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06Uncle Number Two actually cooked for us
0:42:06 > 0:42:13and he made a lot of good, fresh meat from the market.
0:42:13 > 0:42:15I didn't want to talk to my father
0:42:15 > 0:42:18so he's the one, I talked to him, he talked to my father
0:42:18 > 0:42:21and then my father talked to him and he talked to me!
0:42:21 > 0:42:27Uncle Number Two was the peacemaker who reconciled father and son,
0:42:27 > 0:42:31but nine-year-old Lang Lang was still not playing the piano.
0:42:41 > 0:42:44But in due course, after weeks of defiance,
0:42:44 > 0:42:47Lang Lang finally submitted.
0:42:56 > 0:43:00Uncle Number Two brought the family together just in time.
0:43:01 > 0:43:04Soon after, Lang Lang took his entrance exam
0:43:04 > 0:43:06for the Conservatory of Music.
0:43:09 > 0:43:12INSTRUCTIONS CALLED IN CHINESE
0:43:12 > 0:43:14MUSIC PLAYS
0:43:27 > 0:43:30After months of anguish and years of practice,
0:43:30 > 0:43:32Lang Lang was finally enrolled
0:43:32 > 0:43:37as the number one student in China's most prestigious music school.
0:43:42 > 0:43:45But even number one at the Beijing Conservatory
0:43:45 > 0:43:47was not good enough for his father.
0:43:47 > 0:43:52Lang Lang now had to prove himself on a world stage.
0:43:52 > 0:43:55Lang Guoren entered him for an international competition in Germany
0:43:55 > 0:43:58and to increase his chances of success,
0:43:58 > 0:44:02they brought with them a new teacher, Professor Zhao.
0:44:04 > 0:44:06HE SPEAKS IN CHINESE
0:44:33 > 0:44:37Pianists who were studying at the Conservatory
0:44:37 > 0:44:41were to be chosen to represent China at the competition
0:44:41 > 0:44:44and Lang Lang was not chosen.
0:44:44 > 0:44:47It was possible to enter the competition privately.
0:44:48 > 0:44:53It was unbelievably expensive, so that it required enormous sacrifice.
0:44:53 > 0:44:56If you do all of that and then you fail,
0:44:56 > 0:44:58you really look like an idiot,
0:44:58 > 0:45:00so they went off to Germany,
0:45:00 > 0:45:04Lang Lang worked and he worked in his unbelievable tireless way.
0:45:04 > 0:45:06His father coached him through it,
0:45:06 > 0:45:09talked about the other competitors, did a kind of strategy
0:45:09 > 0:45:11almost as if it were a football game, figuring out
0:45:11 > 0:45:14if this one does this you do that and if that one does this,
0:45:14 > 0:45:18setting the whole thing up, I mean really experiencing it
0:45:18 > 0:45:22in the most, kind of, sporting, competitive terms.
0:45:22 > 0:45:25APPLAUSE
0:45:39 > 0:45:43Becoming a pianist, it entails so many different factors.
0:45:43 > 0:45:45It's an art,
0:45:45 > 0:45:47but it's also a sport.
0:45:47 > 0:45:50It has sport element,
0:45:50 > 0:45:54physically fit, physically pliable,
0:45:54 > 0:45:56fast.
0:46:00 > 0:46:04If a youngster is properly nurtured,
0:46:04 > 0:46:09it is when that youngster has learned to walk the path,
0:46:09 > 0:46:14to become the journeyman in search of truth.
0:46:14 > 0:46:18When that happens, then that's success.
0:46:44 > 0:46:46First prize with special prize
0:46:46 > 0:46:49for outstanding artistic achievement...
0:46:49 > 0:46:52Lang Lang.
0:46:52 > 0:46:55CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:47:04 > 0:47:06Afterwards, someone said to Lang Lang,
0:47:06 > 0:47:10"You know, when you won, your father was in tears."
0:47:10 > 0:47:13And Lang Lang said, "My father is incapable of tears."
0:47:13 > 0:47:16APPLAUSE
0:47:22 > 0:47:25But it was still not enough for Lang Guoren.
0:47:25 > 0:47:28Following his triumph in Germany, Lang Lang entered
0:47:28 > 0:47:30the Tchaikovsky competition in Japan,
0:47:30 > 0:47:34perhaps the most prestigious of all piano competitions.
0:47:35 > 0:47:39This would be Lang Lang's greatest challenge yet and required him
0:47:39 > 0:47:42to play with an orchestra for the very first time.
0:47:44 > 0:47:47I prepared quite well.
0:47:47 > 0:47:51I was watching video and so television is here, right,
0:47:51 > 0:47:56so my piano is there, so I kind of learned from the video
0:47:56 > 0:47:57and actually played like karaoke.
0:47:57 > 0:48:01That's the way I learned how to play concertos.
0:48:33 > 0:48:37Really missed my mom so much at times.
0:48:37 > 0:48:41Very painful when I think about it because it's helpless,
0:48:41 > 0:48:43exactly like the music.
0:48:43 > 0:48:48Chopin wrote it for his first love and I kind of...
0:48:48 > 0:48:51my father and also my teachers, you know...
0:48:51 > 0:48:55"OK, just think about how longing you are for your mother."
0:48:58 > 0:49:00So then I start feeling it
0:49:00 > 0:49:04and I played the second movement really beautifully, but not
0:49:04 > 0:49:08thinking about some girl I love, not like that,
0:49:08 > 0:49:11just loving for my mum.
0:49:59 > 0:50:02THEY CHATTER
0:50:24 > 0:50:29Extremely exciting, I mean, this is the Queen's Jubilee, I mean,
0:50:29 > 0:50:32this is such a great honour to be performing
0:50:32 > 0:50:39for her and many people tonight around the world.
0:50:41 > 0:50:43Little bit, mainly...
0:50:46 > 0:50:51It's a human quality he has that a lot of prodigies lose their
0:50:51 > 0:50:53social ability to interact because they're locked away in a room
0:50:53 > 0:50:56all the time, they're under that really harsh regime.
0:50:56 > 0:50:59So you've got to have a very strong personality to come through that
0:50:59 > 0:51:01with the capabilities to be a concert pianist
0:51:01 > 0:51:03and still retain your personality.
0:51:03 > 0:51:05Hi, Lang Lang.
0:51:05 > 0:51:07- You're going to do something with the two cellos for us.- Right!
0:51:07 > 0:51:11- Thank you very much. It's great to meet you.- Such a pleasure.
0:51:11 > 0:51:16- Same to me, yeah. Fantastic. Have a photograph?- Yes, please.
0:51:16 > 0:51:19He's very excited by the Royals,
0:51:19 > 0:51:22because it's something that China doesn't really have.
0:51:22 > 0:51:24And to be part of the Jubilee concert for him, especially amongst
0:51:24 > 0:51:30all the royalty of British rock and pop - he got a real kick from that.
0:51:30 > 0:51:33- Nice shoes!- Thanks.- And brooch.
0:51:36 > 0:51:38THEY CHATTER
0:51:42 > 0:51:45- The kitchen made pretty good Chinese food for me.- They did.- Very good.
0:51:45 > 0:51:47One of the biggest problems
0:51:47 > 0:51:51with classical music at the moment is there's an old guard still alive
0:51:51 > 0:51:53and still active
0:51:53 > 0:51:58in critique of classical music and he is everything they hate.
0:51:58 > 0:52:01He's popular, he has his own power that allows him
0:52:01 > 0:52:05to make his own decisions but they also recognise he is
0:52:05 > 0:52:08everything they need. Every concert seems to be a growth in audience
0:52:08 > 0:52:12size, every CD sells more than the last one in a declining market.
0:52:12 > 0:52:16You know, that's proof in itself that he's got something.
0:52:18 > 0:52:24Here we go! Queen's Jubilee begins. Yeah!
0:52:24 > 0:52:27MUSIC: "Rhapsody In Blue" by George Gershwin
0:53:13 > 0:53:16BELLS CHIME IN DISTANCE
0:53:23 > 0:53:26- You forget how beautiful the buildings are by studying here. - Oh, right.
0:53:26 > 0:53:29Every day you walk through the streets and go,
0:53:29 > 0:53:31"There's the...library, or..."
0:53:31 > 0:53:35Basically, Lang Lang's personal relationships are his parents.
0:53:35 > 0:53:38He has occasional girlfriends and, you know, they tend to be people
0:53:38 > 0:53:42that aren't in the music business because this is what
0:53:42 > 0:53:46he yearns, more than anything, is to have a little bit of normality.
0:53:46 > 0:53:48He'll never have a normal life, he knows that,
0:53:48 > 0:53:50but he loves doing the mundane
0:53:50 > 0:53:54because he's still coming to terms with the fact that there
0:53:54 > 0:53:56might be more to life than just playing the piano.
0:53:56 > 0:53:58We're putting on a classical experimental night
0:53:58 > 0:54:03in a nightclub, DJ classical music.
0:54:03 > 0:54:07DJ versus classical, yeah? That's cool.
0:54:07 > 0:54:09How long are you going to be in Oxford for?
0:54:09 > 0:54:14Today and then I come back the day after tomorrow for a concert.
0:55:10 > 0:55:14People often ask me about the influences in my life.
0:55:14 > 0:55:22My father was relentless in pushing me to practice harder every day,
0:55:22 > 0:55:29Professor Zhu emphasised the importance of recreation, rest and play.
0:55:29 > 0:55:33At the age of five I won the first prize
0:55:33 > 0:55:37but I still remember that night before the competition.
0:55:37 > 0:55:40I got overexcited
0:55:40 > 0:55:45and I went to the bathroom and toilet ten times!
0:55:46 > 0:55:52I think it's a great shame that he's not come in contact with
0:55:52 > 0:55:53a lot of other subjects -
0:55:53 > 0:55:58literature, philosophy or painting.
0:55:59 > 0:56:05He's sort of had to catch up, that sort of scratching the surface
0:56:05 > 0:56:12and he's very curious so he's made quite amazing efforts.
0:56:12 > 0:56:16On the nature versus nurture debate,
0:56:16 > 0:56:18how much do you feel that
0:56:18 > 0:56:21talent, such as your musical talent,
0:56:21 > 0:56:25is something that you are born with or something that you can develop?
0:56:26 > 0:56:28We are in Oxford now!
0:56:32 > 0:56:37Some people have better technique, born with better technique,
0:56:37 > 0:56:40so you can't...but one thing is important.
0:56:40 > 0:56:45It doesn't mean that you can work less and get a better result.
0:56:45 > 0:56:52One thing I believe and this is from Lao Tzu, the great philosopher -
0:56:52 > 0:56:58our life is building from single steps.
0:56:58 > 0:57:05One step followed another one and another one and another
0:57:05 > 0:57:08and you can't skip those steps.
0:57:55 > 0:57:58Age 13, the next step for Lang Lang would be to further
0:57:58 > 0:58:01his musical education abroad.
0:58:01 > 0:58:07Father and son come to America to compete for a place
0:58:07 > 0:58:09at the Curtis Institute in Philadelphia.
0:58:09 > 0:58:12It's here that he'll meet a key influence in his life,
0:58:12 > 0:58:15the pianist and teacher Gary Graffman, who had himself
0:58:15 > 0:58:20been a child prodigy and a celebrated concert pianist.
0:58:21 > 0:58:27When we have auditions you can tell, literally in ten seconds,
0:58:27 > 0:58:3130 seconds, if somebody is very talented or somebody's not talented
0:58:31 > 0:58:36at all, so it was very clear this was a major talent.
0:58:36 > 0:58:39He did arrive, I must say, at Curtis, from what
0:58:39 > 0:58:43I remember, with his father and several suitcases,
0:58:43 > 0:58:45as if he had planned to stay for a while!
0:58:45 > 0:58:52He knows how to become a professional performer, not just a pianist
0:58:52 > 0:58:56but to have a career, you know, it's a slightly different story.
0:58:56 > 0:59:04So he knows how to do it and he knows which steps I shall do it.
0:59:04 > 0:59:07APPLAUSE
0:59:07 > 0:59:12Gary Graffman had once been a student of Vladimir Horowitz,
0:59:12 > 0:59:16one of the great concert pianists of all time.
0:59:27 > 0:59:31I still remember Horowitz, you know...
0:59:31 > 0:59:35and the way he...and the sound.
0:59:41 > 0:59:45And I saw, you know, in the audience people were crying and that
0:59:45 > 0:59:48and I was, "Wow, this is magical, powerful."
0:59:59 > 1:00:06To see a great-grandfather to play something for your entire life and
1:00:06 > 1:00:12to get better and better and better, I thought this is a good way to live.
1:00:20 > 1:00:24Horowitz made me think of the human voice all the time.
1:00:24 > 1:00:26Play this the way one would sing it.
1:00:30 > 1:00:34I can imagine where I would have to breathe.
1:00:34 > 1:00:36And why there? No, no.
1:00:36 > 1:00:38Maybe I'll hold it and breathe in a different place.
1:00:38 > 1:00:40That makes a huge difference.
1:00:42 > 1:00:46The incredible sound of Horowitz
1:00:46 > 1:00:50derives from his right hand sound. His singing sound.
1:00:50 > 1:00:56Darkness and much light also.
1:00:56 > 1:01:00Horowitz had something almost, ALMOST diabolic.
1:01:04 > 1:01:09He had a blazing technique that people literally couldn't understand.
1:01:09 > 1:01:13It was so brilliant it just knocked people flat,
1:01:13 > 1:01:17he could do things on the piano which were not humanly explicable.
1:01:41 > 1:01:45I am very happy to have worked with him.
1:01:45 > 1:01:49In my opinion, he would have flourished anywhere.
1:01:49 > 1:01:53He learned very quickly and he was with me, I guess, five years.
1:01:53 > 1:01:59His father sat in on most of these lessons, or almost all of them,
1:01:59 > 1:02:01and took notes.
1:02:07 > 1:02:12A competition is a way to further your career.
1:02:12 > 1:02:15From my point of view, it wasn't important at all.
1:02:15 > 1:02:17From his point, or maybe his father's,
1:02:17 > 1:02:21it was very important because of the whole background
1:02:21 > 1:02:23where you have to be number one,
1:02:23 > 1:02:26you have to always, whatever you're doing, win.
1:02:26 > 1:02:29Somebody else is number two, you are number one.
1:02:29 > 1:02:35I don't know that the father agreed with me, but I insisted on it.
1:02:38 > 1:02:41Why enter a competition where if you win,
1:02:41 > 1:02:44you play with a certain orchestra
1:02:44 > 1:02:46when the conductor of that orchestra,
1:02:46 > 1:02:48just by hearing you, is going to engage you.
1:02:50 > 1:02:54What I did was invite people from New York to come and hear him.
1:02:57 > 1:03:01From the first note on I was fascinated about...
1:03:01 > 1:03:06I mean, the touch of the first note was special.
1:03:06 > 1:03:13I felt deeply moved that a 17-year-old gets so deep inside
1:03:13 > 1:03:19into the centre of the music, and what music wants to say.
1:03:19 > 1:03:23Five days later, I invited him to play the Tchaikovsky concerto
1:03:23 > 1:03:27for the millennium gala of the Ravinia Festival.
1:03:31 > 1:03:34That was his breakthrough.
1:03:36 > 1:03:40That was the concert that changed my life. Yeah.
1:03:42 > 1:03:45San Francisco Symphony booked me right away.
1:03:45 > 1:03:47The Detroit Symphony, right away.
1:03:47 > 1:03:50Philadelphia. Cleveland.
1:03:50 > 1:03:53New York Philharmonic.
1:03:55 > 1:03:59And in 2003, Carnegie Hall in New York,
1:03:59 > 1:04:03the most celebrated of all concert venues,
1:04:03 > 1:04:06for a classical piano recital.
1:04:07 > 1:04:10HE TESTS PIANO
1:04:13 > 1:04:16From day one, it's had this magnetism
1:04:16 > 1:04:19and every artist has wanted to perform there.
1:04:19 > 1:04:21I often go backstage after a concert
1:04:21 > 1:04:24and somebody who's making their debut will just be in tears
1:04:24 > 1:04:27because they have waited all their life to perform there.
1:04:27 > 1:04:30So when they stepped out onto that platform, they were more scared
1:04:30 > 1:04:35and more keyed up than anywhere else they had played in the world.
1:04:35 > 1:04:37There is a special thing about it.
1:04:37 > 1:04:39It's the spirits which fly around, you know,
1:04:39 > 1:04:42of all the people who have played there.
1:05:19 > 1:05:21HE PLAYS PIANO
1:05:30 > 1:05:34I mean, put very literally, the world does not need pianists,
1:05:34 > 1:05:38it needs accountants, it needs lawyers, it needs doctors.
1:05:38 > 1:05:40So there is room for very few.
1:05:40 > 1:05:44And thousands of people are filled with the desperation
1:05:44 > 1:05:47and ambition to do this and bring it off.
1:05:47 > 1:05:52And you need enormous talent, enormous skill,
1:05:52 > 1:05:57colossal determination and a hell of a lot of luck too.
1:05:59 > 1:06:03Good evening!
1:06:03 > 1:06:05This is my father.
1:06:05 > 1:06:07CROWD APPLAUD
1:06:11 > 1:06:15When you were at Carnegie Hall, finally you got the recognition
1:06:15 > 1:06:18that you wanted in America, that your father wanted,
1:06:18 > 1:06:22he comes and plays with you on stage.
1:06:22 > 1:06:26Because my father basically shared his life with my career.
1:06:26 > 1:06:31Because he was training to become a musician as well,
1:06:31 > 1:06:34and I thought this was a really nice idea.
1:06:34 > 1:06:38At the same time that I'm achieving my dream,
1:06:38 > 1:06:40he's achieving his dream as well.
1:06:40 > 1:06:44I thought it was a beautiful moment in our lives.

1:07:00 > 1:07:03CROWD APPLAUD
1:07:13 > 1:07:18That love that your father and your mother both have for you,
1:07:18 > 1:07:20it's a different kind of love.
1:07:20 > 1:07:24Your mother's love is a kind of love which wants to see you happy.
1:07:24 > 1:07:26Right, exactly.
1:07:26 > 1:07:28What do you feel now, in retrospect,
1:07:28 > 1:07:34about your father's determination for you to win?
1:07:35 > 1:07:39My father is very...very pushy.
1:07:39 > 1:07:41You know, he's still quite a pushy person,
1:07:41 > 1:07:47he's just not very relaxed, he's, in a way, quite aggressive.
1:07:48 > 1:07:54With me, there's always distance and he realises. I mean, he knows that.
1:07:56 > 1:08:00Maybe I want to get closer to him, but I'm a little bit afraid.
1:08:00 > 1:08:04You know, so I'm always also a little bit of...
1:08:04 > 1:08:06A bit distant to him as well.
1:08:06 > 1:08:11I mean, my father and my mum, they are totally different personalities.
1:08:11 > 1:08:16They always have the biggest different opinion in life.
1:08:16 > 1:08:19And there is always arguments.
1:08:19 > 1:08:22And my mum totally believes in her,
1:08:22 > 1:08:24and my father totally believes in him.
1:08:24 > 1:08:28So they never compromise with each other.
1:08:28 > 1:08:31But on my career they made a...you know,
1:08:31 > 1:08:34they find there are some common things,
1:08:34 > 1:08:37which is they all want to support me.
1:08:37 > 1:08:41But in life, it's a different story.

1:09:04 > 1:09:06THEY LAUGH
1:09:06 > 1:09:09APPLAUSE
1:09:28 > 1:09:31SHE SPEAKS GERMAN
1:09:32 > 1:09:36In Berlin, last-minute preparations are underway
1:09:36 > 1:09:41for a very special concert, hosted by Telefonica at the O2 Arena.
1:09:43 > 1:09:46CHEERING
1:09:47 > 1:09:55# Happy birthday to you
1:09:55 > 1:10:02# Happy birthday dear Lang Lang
1:10:02 > 1:10:08# Happy birthday to you! #
1:10:09 > 1:10:11CHEERING
1:10:11 > 1:10:1330 is so significant to him.
1:10:13 > 1:10:17He feels like it's a turning point, he's grown up.
1:10:17 > 1:10:20He's been totally looking forward to this moment,
1:10:20 > 1:10:23and that's why I think the foundation this last year has been so important for him.
1:10:23 > 1:10:28My foundation was established in 2008.
1:10:28 > 1:10:31I believe that music will change people.
1:10:32 > 1:10:35Lang Lang's foundation offers financial support
1:10:35 > 1:10:39to young, aspiring pianists, providing them with opportunities
1:10:39 > 1:10:43to perform in some of the biggest concert halls in the world.
1:10:44 > 1:10:46Hi, everyone!
1:10:46 > 1:10:47ALL: Hello.
1:10:47 > 1:10:50Welcome to Berlin!
1:10:51 > 1:10:56I'm just so happy to play with you. You make me feel very old today.
1:10:58 > 1:11:01THEY PLAY PIANO
1:11:06 > 1:11:09He's talked about nurturing talent for a long time,
1:11:09 > 1:11:13it's only with the onset of his 30th birthday that he seems to feel
1:11:13 > 1:11:15everything in his life has to be readdressed.
1:11:15 > 1:11:20More than anything, he seems to be moving towards the idea that
1:11:20 > 1:11:24he now knows enough and has the confidence in knowing enough to give back.
1:11:29 > 1:11:31OK, stop.
1:11:35 > 1:11:37Don't rush!
1:11:37 > 1:11:39Don't rush, OK? Don't rush.
1:11:39 > 1:11:41And it's important.
1:11:41 > 1:11:47We have forte, we have a piano, we have legatos, we have fortissimos!
1:11:47 > 1:11:50We have big diminuendos. We need to play those things.
1:11:50 > 1:11:52OK?
1:11:52 > 1:11:55We can't just play everything the same.
1:11:55 > 1:11:59We need to have dynamics.
1:11:59 > 1:12:03So now let's begin from the very beginning.
1:12:03 > 1:12:06PIANO PLAYS
1:12:06 > 1:12:11'They need to learn how to watch the conductor and how to play,
1:12:11 > 1:12:14'and how to make music as a team.
1:12:15 > 1:12:18'When to use emotion and when to not use it,
1:12:18 > 1:12:23'and in order to have the climax and build-ups.'
1:12:23 > 1:12:26PIANO CONTINUES
1:13:23 > 1:13:24Whoa! It is very difficult.
1:13:26 > 1:13:29What's been interesting to see in more recent years is
1:13:29 > 1:13:33that as Lang Lang's success really has arrived pretty much
1:13:33 > 1:13:36at the level that Lang Guoren had once imagined,
1:13:36 > 1:13:40Lang Lang now is the one who has, in some ways, the upper hand,
1:13:40 > 1:13:43and Lang Guoren is the one who's there,
1:13:43 > 1:13:45helping him to pack his suitcases and helping to take care of him
1:13:45 > 1:13:48and to deal with various practicalities in his life,
1:13:48 > 1:13:51and I think there must be something very satisfying, in fact,
1:13:51 > 1:13:52to both of them,
1:13:52 > 1:13:55about having arrived at the point of that reversal.
1:13:57 > 1:14:00The essence of all my conversation with Lang Lang came
1:14:00 > 1:14:02when I said to him, "By many Western standards,
1:14:02 > 1:14:05"the way that your father treated you would constitute abuse."
1:14:05 > 1:14:08"Do you feel like you were an abused child?"
1:14:08 > 1:14:10And he said,
1:14:10 > 1:14:12"If my father had treated me that way
1:14:12 > 1:14:15"and I had not made it as a musician,
1:14:15 > 1:14:17"I would probably have a terrible, ruined life,
1:14:17 > 1:14:21"but since the pressure my father applied allowed me to become
1:14:21 > 1:14:24"an international superstar, something I very much enjoy being,
1:14:24 > 1:14:26"I would say it was a wonderful way to grow up."
1:14:28 > 1:14:32ANNOUNCER: 'Also, drei Attribute, die genau auf Lang Lang passen.'
1:14:32 > 1:14:35MUSIC: "Hungarian Dance No. 5" by Johannes Brahms
1:15:18 > 1:15:21Latitude music festival in Suffolk.
1:15:21 > 1:15:24But today, this crowd of thousands
1:15:24 > 1:15:27have something unusual in store for them.
1:15:33 > 1:15:36You've definitely decided on what you're playing?
1:15:36 > 1:15:38It's getting dark.
1:15:38 > 1:15:40I was always ready.
1:15:40 > 1:15:44It's my last concert of the season, so I'm quite happy.
1:15:44 > 1:15:46Finito!
1:15:46 > 1:15:48It's a pleasure, thank you!
1:15:48 > 1:15:51The reason he's doing Latitude is that we were
1:15:51 > 1:15:54looking for a platform for him to go and play to a wider public.
1:15:54 > 1:15:57The idea of getting an intelligent music audience in one place
1:15:57 > 1:15:59and putting him in front of them
1:15:59 > 1:16:03and seeing how they react was too much to pass over.
1:16:10 > 1:16:15Obviously, Lang Lang lives his life in a stuffy,
1:16:15 > 1:16:18classical environment of the Carnegie Hall,
1:16:18 > 1:16:21of the Royal Albert Hall, and I love those places,
1:16:21 > 1:16:22I absolutely love them,
1:16:22 > 1:16:26but they bring a familiarity, and they bring a comfort factor.
1:16:26 > 1:16:30Of course, he's on record about wanting people to play
1:16:30 > 1:16:33the piano more, enrich their lives with classical music,
1:16:33 > 1:16:36and lots of people are on record as saying exactly the same things,
1:16:36 > 1:16:38but none of them do it.
1:16:38 > 1:16:39Thank you, everyone!
1:16:39 > 1:16:42It's a great pleasure to be in Latitude.
1:16:42 > 1:16:44He's playing Chopin and Liszt.
1:16:44 > 1:16:47He's not going up there and playing Jay-Z or Radiohead, even, you know.
1:16:47 > 1:16:50He's going up there and playing core repertoire,
1:16:50 > 1:16:53and the audience reaction, if they react in the way that we think they
1:16:53 > 1:16:58might do, that will justify probably everything he's done up to now.
1:17:00 > 1:17:02LANG LANG PLAYS PIANO
1:17:34 > 1:17:39We need more people who step outside the institutional
1:17:39 > 1:17:43classical world, that obviously has fantastic performers in
1:17:43 > 1:17:47and is supporting classical music brilliantly, but it's just
1:17:47 > 1:17:50great when someone does just step out of the traditional framework.
1:17:57 > 1:17:59Unless you were brought up listening to classical music,
1:17:59 > 1:18:02often you'll just never really get a chance to hear it except,
1:18:02 > 1:18:05you know, in the background of movies or in adverts or
1:18:05 > 1:18:08something, and suddenly someone like Lang Lang does bring
1:18:08 > 1:18:12classical music to more people, so that's excellent.
1:18:27 > 1:18:34I would like to play the Dedication by Schumann,
1:18:34 > 1:18:36and transcript by Liszt.
1:18:36 > 1:18:39And I would like to dedicate this piece to all of you.
1:18:39 > 1:18:41Thank you for being here today. Thank you.
1:18:48 > 1:18:53MUSIC: "Dedication" by Robert Schumann
1:19:00 > 1:19:02You should be carried into another world
1:19:02 > 1:19:07when you go to hear a great pianist, but when I say another world,
1:19:07 > 1:19:10not an escapist's one.
1:19:10 > 1:19:11A real world.
1:19:11 > 1:19:14When Debussy said once,
1:19:14 > 1:19:18"The imaginative life is the only real life,"
1:19:18 > 1:19:21I believe that very strongly.
1:19:21 > 1:19:26You're carried into a world where a lot of trivialities and pettiness
1:19:26 > 1:19:29and ill-feeling can be resolved.
1:19:29 > 1:19:32Music is so much more than some sort of escapist activity.
1:19:52 > 1:19:57His persona is one of exuberance and charm and he's delightful
1:19:57 > 1:20:00and he's fun. Then when he plays the music,
1:20:00 > 1:20:05the thing that he does best is to convey pain and loss and sorrow.
1:20:05 > 1:20:09He conveys a kind of anguish.
1:20:09 > 1:20:12Those early traumas, they're in the music,
1:20:12 > 1:20:15and I think it may be too early to know how they play out in his life.
1:20:56 > 1:21:03I think the mere fact that a certain number of people
1:21:03 > 1:21:09sit down to hear the same piece of music
1:21:09 > 1:21:12that's been played at that moment,
1:21:12 > 1:21:16you experience a whole lifetime.
1:21:31 > 1:21:37And an artist who has the talent, the capacity and the intelligence
1:21:37 > 1:21:39to convey that,
1:21:39 > 1:21:46and make this collective group of people feel that,
1:21:46 > 1:21:51has done something very important, and this is the power of music.
1:21:56 > 1:22:00Music starts from nothing, and ends in nothing, just as we start
1:22:00 > 1:22:06from nothing and end in nothing, and this is what is important.
