This is a music performance but the audio sounds like I'm inside a paper bag that's been rustled constantly in the bed of a pickup truck that is racing in circles around an open-air concert bandstand. Can't someone upload decent audio of a musical performance for once? No upvote for crapola audio despite the prowess of the child genius.

I feel the word "prodigy" is thrown about a tad too liberally these days.

If you're familiar with Asian didactic methods, you know that Asians have a propensity for rote learning. Many Asian instrumentalist have masterful technical abilities, however lack the emotional attachment a true musicianhas with a piece. Also, composition is thrown out the window as the mechanics involved in creating something original simply doesn't exist within their methodology.

There's a difference between talent and skill. This is not to say that the above performance is a walk in the park, however I doubt this child has much understanding of music besides knowing a few bombastic pieces. I certainly wish her well if she goes for a musical career!

I think Toyota is working on robots that will play flawless classical music, however I doubt the act will attract anything but novelty crowd.
