We are thrilled today to welcome Lang Lang to our podcast. Lang Lang is a globally acclaimed Chinese pianist known for his virtuosity, charisma, and innovative approach to classical music. For my money, he's the best pianist out there at the moment and he's performed with major orchestras, of course, and in leading concert halls worldwide. He's also a philanthropist through the Lang Lang International Music Foundation. And Lang Lang 's impact extends far beyond the concert stage as he actively uses his platform to promote music education and to connect with audiences through technology and new forms of performance. Lang Lang welcome to our podcast and my question for you is this. We hear all the time how super stressed, you know, teens are with schoolwork.So what advice do you have for those who have outside interests like music that might be related to their ultimate career interests, but they constantly struggle to find the time to pursue them?

I know you're now probably preparing for a big exam soon, you know, in your school, and I know that you don't have enough time to practice. So my advice is no matter how long you practice, please, with your great heart and soul, make every minute count and I'm sure you will get some incredible level of musical feelings in your play.
