The ‘Evergreen Tree’ of the global piano world returns after 5 years with 40 years of classic masterpieces. He is known as the ‘Evergreen Tree’ of the global piano world; he is the pianist with the most recordings; he is the idol worshipped by several generations of Chinese pianists; he is the first high-end artist to arrive in China; he has held over 400 concerts in China, creating a musical frenzy wherever he goes, with every concert being sold out and tickets hard to come by; he is known as the ‘Prince of Romantic Piano’; his music has influenced the musical appreciation of three generations in China; he is popular worldwide; he is the Prince of Piano – Richard Clayderman. You must have heard his music. Perhaps on a bumpy bus ride, in a restaurant, in a moment of a game, or in your music playlist. The grace on the black and white keys, the distant ethereal notes. Blonde hair, blue eyes, white suit, ‘Dream of a Wedding’, every memory is a series of tossing and turning.
[Richard Clayderman’s Glorious Record] Richard Clayderman, with 40 years in the arts, has participated in over 2000 performances, more than 700 television shows, received more than 340 platinum and gold records, sold over 30 million records, toured the world for more than 30 years with over 3 million kilometers of flight distance, equivalent to circling the Earth more than 70 times, visited China more than 30 times, with over 5 million audience members at his concerts, and received more than 50,000 bouquets of flowers on stage… [Hard to Part with Chinese Sentiments, the Most Genuine and Romantic] Music has no borders, and Richard Clayderman’s music is no exception. Richard Clayderman loves Chinese music very much, and in order to promote China to the world, he has adapted many Chinese songs into piano pieces, making him the foreign artist who has adapted and performed the most Chinese music pieces in the world. When we listen to his adaptations of ‘Butterfly Lovers’ and ‘Love Like a Tide’, we feel a sense of closeness to Richard. We know that Richard is expressing his respect for Chinese audiences through Chinese music in this way. Richard Clayderman is admirable and enviable, but behind his brilliant achievements, he has made efforts that others can hardly imagine. Without the influence and continuous support of his family and his own selfless efforts, Richard would not have become the most romantic pianist, spreading the melody of love to the world. [World Classic Movie Soundtracks, Listen to the Sound of Music with Richard] Richard.The majority of the pieces Richard Clayderman performs are composed by Paul de Senneville and Olivier Toussaint. These two composers, who have written for popular singers and created film scores, turned their focus to composing exclusively for Richard after appreciating his talent. His musical philosophy is very accessible, with no complex harmonies or rules, and features a slow, four-beat waltz rhythm. Sometimes, electronic keyboards are used to convey a sense of pleasure and a fantastical impression, fully revealing the charm of Richard Clayderman. At this concert, Richard will also bring the audience a zero-distance live experience with beautiful original soundtracks from classic movies such as ‘Star Wars’, ‘The Chorus’, ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’, and ‘Léon: The Professional’. The event starts on January 17th, Friday, at 20:00 and lasts approximately 90 minutes (subject to the actual performance).
