🎹Playing Sibelius Etude Too Neatly?Lang Lang Explains Op.76 No.2 and the Nordic Soul

Описание: In this masterclass, Lang Lang introduces a composer rarely explored through piano music: Jean Sibelius, the great Finnish master best known for Finlandia and the Violin Concerto.

Sibelius’s Etude in A minor, Op.76 No.2 is not about virtuosity.
It carries the spirit of the Nordic world—long winters, restraint, folk dance rhythms, and quiet inner passion.

Lang Lang explains:

Why this etude should never sound overly polished or academic

How Nordic character shapes Sibelius’s musical language

The unique finger challenges between the 4th and 5th fingers

Why the left hand stays simple while the right hand carries character

How folk dance, nature, and national identity live inside the sound

This music reflects Finland itself:
quiet on the surface, intense underneath—
like forests, frozen lakes, and endless winter nights.

Lang Lang encourages pianists to explore beyond standard repertoire and discover voices from smaller cultures—because great music does not belong only to famous names, but to diverse worlds.
