Live from Berghain, Berlin, 2010
Original and extraordinary – these words describe both the artist and the setting for this intimate film from 2010: the Berghain nightclub in Berlin, Europe’s capital of underground culture and music. Over an unforgettable half-hour, Lang Lang, performs the first movement of the Beethoven’s Appassionata Sonata, the last movement of Prokofiev’s Sonata for piano No. 7, Albéniz’s “Evocation” from Iberia Book I, and finishes with a powerful rendition of Chopin’s ‘Heroic’ Polonaise No. 6.
