B
He is a Chinese superstar, a piano genius who has sold millions of albums worldwide. Lang Lang has also
used his fame and fortune to help state schools around the world that lack music, warning at a 2019 awards
ceremony in London that such lessons had become “a real challenge” for children in the most disadvantaged
communities.
Now he is bringing music to British state schools in an ambitious project that will set up modern “piano labs”
in needy schools across the nation. Each lab will have 20 to 30 keyboards. The plan is inspired by his programmes
in the US and China, in which he has invested tens of millions of pounds.
In the US, he has set up piano labs in 86 schools, giving 70,000 kids access to keyboards. In China, he has
installed them in 104 schools, enabling 110,000 children to make music. This is primarily for pupils aged seven to
12.
The first UK school to benefit is the Winns primary school in Waltham Forest, London’s 12th poorest area. It
will receive 30 keyboards within the next few weeks. Every lab is accompanied by a curriculum created by the
Royal Conservatory of Music of Toronto and Lang Lang, with ongoing teacher-training, financial support, and
headphones, allowing group piano classes.
Asked what inspired him to support UK schools, Lang told the reporter: “We were able to identify many
similarities between state schools in the UK and public schools in the US in terms of the way access to music and
arts can be extremely limited when budgets are cut…I was so surprised by how music classes are never guaranteed.
The schools and teachers are incredible, and are so dedicated to providing their students with everything they can.
But it shocked me how access to music education can be so limited.”
His charity quotes the Greek philosopher Aristotle: “Music has the power of producing a certain effect on the
moral character of the soul, and if it has the power to do this, it is clear that the young must be directed to music
and must be educated in it.”
Lang Lang said: “When I visit our partner schools and see the joy on the students’ faces or hear from our
teachers about the progress students are making, I’m reminded of why we created this programme—to give
children an opportunity to discover what they’re capable of achieving and to find their voices through music.”
4. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To offer background information. B. To introduce an argument.
C. To discuss Lang Lang’s plans. D. To highlight Lang Lang’s reputation.
5. Which schools will Lang Lang help in Britain?
A. Private schools. B. Ambitious schools.
C. Remote schools. D. Disadvantaged schools.
6. Why did Lang Lang decide to support schools in Britain?
A. The teachers are doing a good job.
B. Music classes aren’t always available.
C. The budgets are always being cut.
D. The schools are dedicated to helping students.
7. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Lang Lang—a kind and caring pianist
B. Lang Lang teaches the world to play piano
