@ Clodomir: in the official presentation on the Universal Classics website, some time ago, Mike O. stated that he would be playing guitar and piano on the album. (Lang Lang and Karl Jenkins weren't mentioned anywhere in that presentation.) He also stated the same thing when originally presenting the album's concept in early interviews [when it was supposed to be about Hallowe'en... luckily it isn't! ]: he said he wouldn't be playing electric guitars, but just classical guitar and grand piano. From what I've heard of MotS, the classical guitar is very clearly played by him, but I'm very uncertain about who played the piano! Before knowing that Lang Lang was involved, I figured out that Mike O. played it all by himself - even complicated parts may have been very easily played by him, using heavy editing techniques (as in the ending of Sunjammer, on TBII). But then I learnt about the involvement of another pianist, and a virtuoso classical one too... that's where my Lang Lang question came from.
