The Moon is Chasing the Clouds

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!

Does Lang Lang read anything on this site? Because I think he is very naive. I wish he was aware of the human rights abuses abounding in China. Does he know that a church raised $8,000 for the Sichuan earthquake victims and it was never distributed to the victims? And now the poor woman who complained about the government confiscating her donation (and keeping it) has been sentenced to prison.

Does LangLang know for sure that all he does for charity actually gets to the people who need it?

If you read this Lang Lang my friend, please get in touch with reality. If you really care about your people, stand up for human rights in your country. Please be our hero.
