Disney turns 100 this year. The Chinese pianist Lang Lang, together with the Mickey Mouse group, is taking this as an opportunity to set new music to classics from Disney films from the “Jungle Book” to “Aladdin”. The album “The Disney Book” was released on Friday, September 16th. There is also a video clip for the track “The Beauty and the Beast” – aka “Die Schöne und Das Biest”.
Lang will be accompanied not only by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Robert Ziegler, but also by Colombian singer Sebastián Yatra and Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli. “These new versions are practically written in my fingers,” says Lang Lang. The album is a gift to young and old: “I hope that everyone, regardless of generation or background, enjoys this recording and experiences the same joy that they once felt when they saw a Disney film for the first time.”
You can watch the video for “The Beauty and the Beast” here:
The Storybook contains the storyboards for the video clip of The Beauty and the Beast. It is printed on quality paper and signed by Lang Lang.
