Guess a 10 year jazz pianist prodigy doesn't make too much of an impression here. I thought there were a number of jazz pianists on the forum. Later, Ray

I must say I'm knocked out. What fantastic and beautiful technique. Effortless rendition. It's hard to image what the future might hold for this young man (scary even....)
I'll add that I was knocked out when he leaves the piano stool at 11:45 or so. No 88 is going to get in that guy's way!
Thanks for sharing Trevor

I meant Protégé. Do you think he got there all by himself? He's 10 for goodness sake. What does he know about Show Biz? He may well be a Prodigy too - time will tell whether it is REAL talent or just hard learning. Sorry, folks, I am not a fan of exploitation of the young, protégé or prodigy. Have a Childhood first.

A shame you hold such a biased and even prejudiced attitude about it, sixchannel. I hope you can look beyond that and find out some truth concerning the issu.
Some children are born with incredibly high intelligence levels and to them, such endeavors as depicted here IS "childhood".
Many times, the parents have nothing to do with it, no musical background themselves, and here comes this incredible kid.
Quite a few musical prodigies are the impetus themselves that has parents who don't play music, can't play music, therefore cannot do the type of things to the kid that you claim is done, rather the parents find out that they must go out and find the proper teachers, etc. - often at the insistence of the child. In the case of yours truly, my parents actually had to constantly be active in trying to make me participate in OTHER endeavors. !
Please watch this report:
And such is not relegated only to the music performance category, either.
None of these children's parents are even ABLE to teach or unduly influence the performance levels that these children ENJOY. They are simply doing that which they were created to do.
The real and true problem with being a child prodigy is that one day, you grow up.
All of a sudden you are faced with being just another adult that does whatever it is that adults do - and the sudden lack of being so special can be rather devastating if not handled well.
A lot of bright and gifted young children have nobody to BE their PROTEGE, too.
Behind ever child protégé there is a bullying parent. And ahead of him? Fame or oblivion?
Hmmmm... A pretty strong statement: "Behind ever(sic) child protégé there is a bullying parent."
Firstly, I don't think it's that black-and-white, and I also think the opposite can be true. There are child geniuses. Who has the right to not nurture and encourage such a gift?
And with this young man, no amount of 'bullying' could possibly produce that level of talent. Surely?
I could only identify an amazing natural ability. Did he achieve such Virtuoso Articulation from bullying? I seriously doubt it.
Just my 2 cents.

It was my 2 cents worth too. Nothing like a bit of rhetoric to get things going. OK, OK - maybe I was a bit hard on the parents. It would be interesting if the media had or were able to revisit these "prodigies" 10 - 15 years down the line and see a) where it got them and b)if that Talent remained. As an aside - I am fascinated by early NATURAL high quality abilities as, having an young autistic member in our distant family, who finds many everyday things beyond her, we are continually stunned with her ability to listen to a tune just the once and play it on the electric piano. And No - we will not be putting her on the TV. Ian

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows® Today!
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
