Lang Lang names back-up band for Disney tour
NewsHe opens at the Hollywood Bowl on Thursday, September 15.
Together with the Los Angeles Philharmonic conducted by Jahja Ling, Lang Lang will be joined by special guests throughout the night including his wife, pianist Gina Alice; The Tenors; singer and pianist Reuben James; and with the band Pink Martini, singer and guitarist Edna Vazquez, NPR correspondent and singer Ari Shapiro and founder Thomas Lauderdale in the role of Creative Director.
Has Lang Lang sunk or risen to the level of Pink Martini?
Technically, Lang Lang is superior (so long as the music is notated, i.e., no improv).
Artistically, Pink Martini writes its own stuff and plays convincingly in multiple genres.
Commercially, Pink Martini most likely outsells Lang Lang.
The evidence points to “risen”.

Liberace, however, played well.
You’ve made me laugh – first time today. Thank you!
But, thinking about it, this may be something Lang Lang could do pretty well – as long as he plays a sufficient number of wrong notes, endless rubato and crazy dynamics.
Don’t know what to say !
Well for some laughters.
