In celebration of 100 years of The Walt Disney Company, piano virtuoso Lang Lang is releasing his latest album, The Disney Book.

What's Happening:

Piano virtuoso Lang Lang is releasing his latest album, The Disney Book, in celebration of 100 years of The Walt Disney Company.
In this musical journey, there will be iconic movie melodies that are reimagined and written by him with his unique interpretations.
The recording will be released on September 16th on Deutsche Grammophon, in collaboration with Disney Music Group.
Recording sessions took place in London, New York, Shanghai, and Paris, and this truly traces the history of music in Disney films from the 1920s to the present and reflects Lang Lang’s own personal journey.
The Disney Book is also a continuation of his commitment to music education.
Much like his successful 2019 album Piano Book, he brought together some of his favorite pieces in a way to encourage young musicians to explore classical music.

The album’s first single releasing today is a song beloved by fans and heralded as Walt Disney’s favorite song from Mary Poppins: “Feed the Birds.” Captured as dawn broke over the iconic Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland, the music video captures the magic of Lang Lang’s album and of Walt Disney’s legacy.

The Disney Book features joyous new versions of songs from Pinocchio and The Jungle Book to Frozen and Encanto, along with several collaborators from across the globe:
- Andrea Bocelli provides vocals for “You’ll Be in My Heart” from Tarzan
- Singer-songwriter and pianist Jon Batiste revisits his Oscar-winning Soul score with “It’s All Right”
- Colombian singer/songwriter Sebastián Yatra performs the Oscar-nominated song “Dos Oruguitas” from Encanto
- There are also guest appearances from guitarist Miloš, Chinese erhu player Guo Gan, and Lang Lang’s wife Gina Alice, plus the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and conductor Robert Ziegler.
This album will be available in all digital formats as well as physical versions and limited editions.

What They’re Saying:

The inspiration for this album came from Lang Lang’s own personal journey and history with Disney films. Lang Lang shares: “Animation sparked my imagination and transported me to other worlds. The music was a big part of this experience – and led to my life-long love of classical music. There is such a variety of styles in Disney songs; truly, something to inspire everyone. I hope that people of all ages will enjoy this recording and experience the joy that we all felt the first time we saw a Disney film.”
