		</div><p>Russian President Vladimir Putin, known for his passion for the outdoors, showed off his softer side during a visit to China when he sat down to play the piano.</p>
<p>Mr Putin is in Beijing on a state visit to discuss a 1 trillion US dollar infrastructure plan that strives to revive the ancient Silk Road.</p>
<p>After speaking at the summit in the morning, Mr Putin headed to meet Chinese President Xi Jinping at his residence.</p>
<p>Mr Putin is habitually late for meetings, but this time he was the one who was made to wait, Russian news agencies said.</p>
<p>So, Mr Putin played some songs on Mr Xi&#8217;s piano. Russian state television showed excerpts of at least two tunes he played &#8211; Moscow Windows and City On The Free Neva &#8211; both Soviet classics.</p>
<p>Mr Putin has demonstrated his music talents before. In 2010, he took to the stage at a charity concert with a jazz band to play and sing Blueberry Hills.</p>
<p>But in recent years, Mr Putin &#8211; occupied with the annexation of Crimea, the crisis in eastern Ukraine and Russia&#8217;s role in Syria &#8211; preferred to demonstrate his virile side in Kremlin-distributed pictures of him hunting and fishing.</p>
