So the whole world is not going in wrong direction.

Well the kid is exception. A great connection his conscious has with his unconscious mind.

I bought his Symphony No.5--it's pretty cool. His website hasn't been updated for a few years (and that video is 7 years old)--I wonder what he's up to these days?

Here's a Russian ensemble playing one of his pieces--it's awesome that he attracted international attention:

His music is amazing. Very 'mother russia.' Like Prokofiev or Dvorak (czech, i know) And dark as hell.

Sadly, I predict he will be crushed by the weight of his own genius in his 20s and commit suicide.

yeah, that got me too - but then i started to think about it.

maybe he saw it on TV, like a kids show??

i've seen YoYo Ma on Sesame St.

and his uber brain linked it with the sounds in his synaesthesia brain?

Verbal · Post by **Verbal** » 13 Nov 2011, 21:21

so maybe he had never seen one but had seen one on sesame street?

right

So yeah, bullshit, he'd seen one.

Anyway, I remember seeing this when it aired such a long time ago and wondering, "yeah, but is his music any good?" And then I concluded that yeah, it's probably pretty good, and think about it...he's fucking 12. By the time he's my age he'll have much more artistic insight and write something astounding.

Also, here's the extended version of that piece.
