Lang Lang Live in Vienna [Blu-ray]

The program for his Sony debut features Lang Lang's first-ever recording of Beethoven sonatas: The famous "Appassionata", a milestone in the piano literature, is paired with the composer's youthful C major Sonata op. 2, no. 3. Virtuosity of a different order is displayed in Albéniz's impressionistic memories of his native Spain in Book 1 of "Iberia." The program closes with one of Prokofiev's explosive War Sonatas, the revolutionary Seventh Sonata. Finally, to celebrate the Chopin Bicentennial we hear three encores of this Polish genius's most popular works: the "Aeolian Harp" Etude, the "Heroic" Polonaise in A flat major, and the sparkling Grande Valse Brillante No. 2. Features the complete recital filmed in high-definition, an extended photo gallery plus special 3D performances
