Lang Lang – Goldberg Variations – Finding the Inner Voice

Synopsis

At a time of personal change, star pianist Lang Lang fulfills a long-held dream and takes on one of the greatest challenges of the classical repertoire: Bach’s Goldberg Variations. Legendary in their length and difficulty, the 30 variations are technically demanding and when performed together, span almost 90 minutes. On this very intimate journey of rediscovery, Lang visits mentors, friends, and Bach experts, travelling through time and to various cities to find deeper connection to both the composer and the historic colossus of music literature. Follow in an open conversation as he develops his interpretation and encounter a new Lang Lang, who is more experienced, more thoughtful, more transparent, and more concentrated.
