On October 20, 2008, me and 2 other young pianists performed in NYC's Town Hall at the opening concert of the Lang Lang International Music Foundation Lang Lang established this foundation to expand classical music audiences and inspire the next generation of classical musicians. I made this video from clips recorded during this event, including my warm-up at the GRAMMY Recording Academy. Visit http://thelanglangfoundation.org/index.html

Frédéric François Chopin was a Polish composer and virtuoso pianist of the Romantic era who wrote primarily for solo piano. He has maintained worldwide renown as a leading musician of his era, one whose "poetic genius was based on a professional technique that was without equal in his generation."
