Lang Lang on Tony Ann’s 'Icarus'

Listen to Lang Lang discussing Tony Ann’s „Icarus“. The piece in its 4-hand version (together with Tony Ann) is part of his upcoming new album 'Piano Book 2': https://LangLang.lnk.to/PianoBook2 Six years after the release of his celebrated Piano Book album, Lang Lang returns with 'Piano Book 2'. This new volume of short and accessible piano works offers a fresh selection that ranges from iconic classical compositions and contemporary pieces to music from TV, film, and gaming soundtracks. Lang Lang refers to the 32 tracks on his new album as “miniature masterpieces”. They were carefully selected based on messages from fans, school syllabus content, and his own teaching experience – as well as works especially close to his heart – with subtle nods to modern media and streaming culture. “I hope this collection helps you discover new favourites, reconnect with familiar melodies, and find renewed inspiration at the piano.” (Lang Lang) Piano Book 2 will be released on 17 October 2025 on Deutsche Grammophon. ---- Follow Lang Lang!
