LangLangWhiteHouse1

This event is significant because of the choice of song that the pianist chose to play at the White House dinner. It is quite controversial since it is supposed to be an AntiAmerican song if one interprets the term "jackal" as being America. Thus, a lot of controversy is appearing on the various talk groups about the wisdom of this Chinese pianist playing this song for Barack Obama. Obama had known what the song would be in advance so it was done with his approval. I decided after hearing about it to view the video and saw half of it and put it here to remember this event. It sounded very "twangy" to me which is very Chinese, but to the pianist it is very patriotic and sentimental to him. I wonder at his reaction to his appearance in America now.
