Lang Lang and Montblanc celebrate 20 years of the Montblanc de la Culture Arts Patronage Award

Montblanc is proud to announce that world-famous pianist Lang Lang will accompany the arts and culture brand through another suspenseful year – The year in which Montblanc celebrates its 20th anniversary of Montblanc de la Culture Arts Patronage.

On this occasion, a special photo shoot took place near the so called “Elbvororte” in Hamburg, Germany – Montblanc’s home base. The location has been the perfect setting for photographer Giorgio Z. Gatti, shooting Lang Lang, whilst playing the piano and backlight windows catching the vibrations of the tunes.

Watch Lang Lang in this video, capturing the day of the photo shoot, and listen to his brilliant performance:
