Mit spitzbübischen Charme gleiten Lang Langs Hände über die Tasten des Steinway Flügels. Er liebkost sein Instrument, streichelt und verführt es mit Tschaikowsky. Wenn er dann mit Gershwins 'Rapsody in Blue' zum sprichwörtlichen Gegenschlag ausholt und den Flügel 'zupft' und euphorisch auf selbigen einhämmert, ist das ebenso leidenschaftlich wie bedingungslos. Immer wieder ist das von der Musik und den Tönen entzückte und träumerische Gesicht Lang Langs zu vernehmen, der nicht nur sein Publikum in melodienreiche Traumwelten entführt, sondern auch selber längst eins mit der Musik geworden ist. Scheinbar mühelos musiziert er, sitzt er am Flügel und geniesst jeden einzelnen Moment.
