I can't stand music that has no melody. But because it was Lang Lang, I went to the concert to suffer through Prokofiev. Just not my thing. Yeah, he was perfect and technically correct and dramatic but that little song that he dedicated to those of us who have come to Ravinia year after year to hear him (and to stand in long lines to get his autograph and a photo) was the best thing of the whole night.

When he came out on stage with a microphone I thought YIKES!! Hope he isn't going to sing!
