"A Chinese In The West" - In 1928, American composer George Gershwin composed one of his 

best-known works "An American in Paris," which described the sights and energy of the French 

capital that he had experienced in the 1920s. Since moving to the U.S. in 1999, celebrated pianist 

Lei Weng has travelled to many countries and experienced much diverse cultures. This program 

reflects and conveys his view (a Chinese's view) of the musical world and styles, through an 

elaborately selected set of repertoire that consists of some of the most representative piano works 

from different contries.
