Lang Lang has a baby on the way
mainThe pianist says: ‘I am so excited to announce that Gina and I are expecting our first child. We could not be happier to welcome our new family member to the world.’
Looks like early days yet.
The couple married in June 2019. He is 38, she 26.
Uh huh. (Too snarky even for me. Mea culpa.)
How fortuitous that Lang Lang’s latest album is JSB’s ‘Goldberg Variations’, the original composition of which was reputedly to settle an insomniac Count. And caring for a baby, Mrs Lang & Lang Lang will presumably have insomnia. He really has everything mapped out, musically, though the baby may prove to be his father’s sternest critic.

just you wait, the baby will be traumatized upon hearing Lang Lang’s (not Bach’s) Goldberg.
1) “He is 38, she 26.”
So what? If he followed the model of conductors, she will be his first wife, and the older he gets, the younger the subsequent wives will get.
2) Congrats Lang Lang, but you know, was there really a need to add to the world population?
You could’ve just adopted 10 kids from Africa and war zone refugee camps. As it is, the next generations will just suffer catastrophic climate change and nuclear fallout from war between China, US and North Korea.
… otherwise known as “jumping the snark” …
Please shoot yourself for the good of the planet and to reduce overpopulation. Also like that there will be one space open for Lang Lang’s baby.
Cheers
@JK, it’s telling that you wish harm on @Anon when @Anon was not wishing harm on anyone. That says a lot about you.
@mary I’d say you’re a little uptight perhaps.
I was being sarcastic. I was not actually wishing physical harm on this person. Quite the contrary actually. I just wanted to point out how ridiculous the “please stop having kids for the good of the planet” argument is.
Another pro killing idiot telling other ppl to kill themself. A psychopath.
Horrible view you have on life.
A somewhat pathological response to what most normal people consider to be good news in these troubled times. I will add a hearty Mazel Tov and best wishes to the couple.
Such a pessimistic person.
” As it is, the next generations will just suffer catastrophic climate change and nuclear fallout from war between China, US and North Korea.”
…And it will all be Lang Lang’s fault.
5 thumbs up, 85 thumbs down
5 Millennials, 85 OK Boomers
OK Boomers, the Millennials get me.
Thank u for the rational comment. These delusional pro birth selfish ego maniacs are worse than cancer.
Mazel Tov to them both.
Do we really need to know this at all?
Folk are having children everywhere, it is not a unique event.
Oh, FCS. This site routinely mentions births, marriages, deaths in the music community. This is a good news story and nothing else. Don’t be such a jerk.
Good good for for them them.
Awwwww. That is happy news in these trying times.
Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. LL, and may the baby be strong and healthy.
As Lang Lang himself was a product of the one-child policy in China no doubt he’s thrilled to be able to control how many children he and his wife want.
Even people subject to the One Child policy can control how many children they want.
How sweet, you have inspired me, you look so very happy
Please don’t call the kid Lang Lang Junior. One Lang Lang is already more than enough.
Länger Länger?

Per Chinese conversation, the kid will be called Lang Lang Lang.
Auld Lang Lang Syne? (Rabby Burns)
Please! who cares that these “people” are having a baby,
an extra addition to an already over-populated troubled world.
We have far more pressing, important issues in our world to contend with- LL’s sense of self importance is becoming unbearable-already bad enough that the Goldberg publicity stunt more than diminishes the true worth of Bach’s Golden Treasure,
Bach’s love letter and the ultimate gift to humanity.
Please don’t make the “priceless” cheap by imitating the relentless
Advert obsessed machinery of the Greed-driven Market Economy
that is destroying our world and our Planet earth!
Wow.
These are two fellow human beings who are expecting their first baby. They are excited. They are happy. Why are you getting so upset?
And what on earth does “imitating the relentless Advert obsessed machinery of the Greed-driven Market Economy that is destroying our world and our Planet earth” have to do with Mr. and Mrs. LL’s baby?
You are deeply weird, Gift. Deeply weird.
Personally, I’m happy to know that maybe a child of music might be born. Congratulations Mom!
And Daddy lol…
That’s nice. Maybe he can start getting serious now and stop appearing on Chinese entertainment shows and getting all weird on classics like the Goldberg.
Congrats to Lang Lang.
Hopefully, the will not name the baby Short Short.
Idiot.
