Bach’s Goldberg Variations is a display of both technical and artistic ability. The pianist must show the listener who they are! This is what the film is about: who is Lang Lang?
Lang Lang invites us to an encounter with this colossus of music literature at a time when he is re-organising and realigning his life, newly married and after he has had his first long concert break. Accordingly, we encounter a new Lang Lang in this film: more experienced, more thoughtful, more transparent and more concentrated.
