So, even if a pianist works hard to become a world-renowned pianist,
the income from a single performance is only around five thousand to ten thousand euros.
While it is certainly enough to ensure basic needs are met, in comparison to social status, it's really not much.
Of course, we need to exclude Lang Lang from this.
Because the ticket prices for Lang Lang's performances range from 68 euros to 288 euros, with almost a hundred percent attendance rate.
This is precisely why Lang Lang receives a share of the profits from performances rather than a fixed performance fee.
However, he's the only one like this globally.
Below Lang Lang, the legendary pianist Agriji has concert tickets that can go up to forty euros, with an attendance rate of about ninety percent.
But even so, he is not entitled to profit-sharing.
Even for Lang Lang, purely relying on performances, he can only earn a little more than forty million RMB a year.
Which is still lower than his societal status.
