Holger Wild had the pleasure of portraying the world's best pianist Lang Lang as well as piano designer Dakota Jackson, for which a studio was set up in the production halls of the Steinway and Sons plant in New York. Lang Lang personally developed this strictly limited special edition of the Black Diamond piano. Over the course of this two-day production, the master pianist took the time to enchant the crew with music so that a video and several portraits could be created under the photographic direction of Holger Wild. The agency JuK von Zitzewitz based in Hamburg initiated this happening, and GoSee member Manuel Wagner from wagnerchic.de took care of post production. Production was in the hands of WIDE-Production with Volker Dencks and Daniela Witting.
