Genius. Idiot. You Decide.
Composed and orchestrated when she was twelve. Parts of it written when she was eight. Astonishing.
Foolishly feeding the troll , Wikipedia disagrees:To be fair, she's probably the offspring of some privileged, possibly titled scumbag who profits off of people's misery on a daily basis and she already inherited both her parents aloof ignorance as well as heartless, sociopathic determination, so I wouldn't get too hasty with the "hope for humanity" part.
Wikipedia said:Deutscher was born in Basingstoke in 2005, the daughter of literature professor Janie Deutscher née Steen and Israeli linguist Guy Deutscher. Both are amateur musicians.
And she plays violin, because... of course she does.Wikipedia said:However, Deutscher has explained that her seemingly spontaneous style of composition obscures the harder work involved in creating larger and complex compositions, where the idea or initial melody is only the first part of a much longer process. At Zeitgeist Minds, she explained: "Lots of people think that the difficult part of composing is to get the ideas, but actually that just comes to me. The difficult bit is then to sit down with that idea, to develop it, to combine it with other ideas in a coherent way. Because it's very easy to throw a soup of lots of ideas which don't make any sense together. But to sit down and develop and combine it, and afterwards to tweak it and to polish it – that takes ages..."

Have you looked in the mirror lately...?she already inherited both her parents aloof ignorance as well as heartless, sociopathic determination
I knew nothing about the girl beforehand and actually read the Wikipedia article myself afterwards.
You just did, here:I'm not gonna hate on a little girl
the little princess being too bored and too precious
Yeah, humanity needs more people like you to bring down what should have been an uplifting and happy thread. Some people just simply can't be happy about something harmless like a talented 12 year old bringing joy to people through her music - did you actually have an opinion about her piano concerto or what? It's interesting that you judge the composer and not the music....I don't think more of this kind of exalted folks is what humanity needs, or should hope for (to circle back to the thread title).

Yes , I'm sure she came out of the womb knowing how to play piano, violin & write music.Frankly, I also generally laugh at any notion of an artists' "hard work"

I feel rather inadequate. All I did at 12 was play video games. Hell, I still do!
