Carnegie Hall is a classical music performance highland with a great relationship with Lang Lang, who appeared here 20 years ago, in 2001. Since then, he has been invited to Carnegie several times. In 2012, tickets for his recital were hard to come by, and he even got a seat on the stage. Twenty years later, at this commemorative moment, the concert was also sold out early.
