Canadian musician and producer Gonzales broke the world record for the longest-ever solo concert Monday, successfully playing piano for 27 hours, three minutes and 44 seconds. The 37-year-old Gonzales claimed the title from Guinness record-holder Prasanna Gudi of India, who had played raga for 26 hours and 12 minutes in December.

Gonzales took the stage at midnight Sunday at the Cine Theatre 13 in Paris and finished at about 3 a.m. Monday.

For his record-breaking concert, Gonzales chose 300 pieces, including works from Gershwin, Britney Spears and Beethoven.
