WASHINGTON, Sept. 8 (Xinhua) -- Music is needed now more than ever, for it is a means of consolation for people enduring the plight caused by the coronavirus pandemic, world-renowned Chinese pianist Lang Lang said Tuesday.
During a virtual dialogue with North America-based reporters to promote his newly released album featuring great German composer Johann Sebastian Bach's Goldberg Variations, Lang, 38, said that music is very important right now in that people need mental support to overcome the hardship they are suffering due to the public health crisis.
