No contemporary artist has made more of an impact on the classical world than Lang Lang. He has ascended to enormous popularity and has earned nicknames such as the classical music "rock star" by The Wall Street Journal, and landed a coveted spot on Time magazine's list of the "100 Most Influential People in the World."

Lang Lang, who plays with dazzling technique and charisma, has been characterized for his "sensitive," yet "deeply human" performances, and brings his colossal talent to Jones Hall to help close out the Houston Symphony's 2014-15 Season.
