Reliving his greatest hour

On the night of Aug 8, Chinese pianist Lang Lang played a romantic piece called Starlight at the spectacular Opening Ceremony for Beijing 2008.

This Saturday, the 26-year-old prodigy returns to the Olympic Green for a New Year concert with the Beijing Symphony Orchestra at the National Indoor Stadium.

Lang has just returned from a double concert date in South Korea but the day before flying out, found time to go to Southwest China's Guiyang city so he could meet hundreds of piano-playing children and their parents, sharing with them his growing pains and experience of learning piano.
