Yuja Wang: ‘If I’m going to get naked with my music, I may as well be comfortable’
mainFrom the Chinese-American pianist’s Observer interview with the well-dressed Fiona Maddocks:
“If a beautiful male pianist wears tight pants, I’m not going to think, ‘What’s in those pants’?” Really not, Yuja? Hoots of laughter. “OK, maybe. But if the music is beautiful and sensual, why not dress to fit? It’s about power and persuasion. Perhaps it’s a little sadomasochistic of me. But if I’m going to get naked with my music, I may as well be comfortable while I’m at it.”
