5 Year Old Emily Made Music History
QUOTES ........
( Zuill Bailey about Emily's sixth album 'Diversity' recorded at age 11)
Zuill Bailey, Zull Bailey, classical cellist, Artistic Director of El Paso Pro Musica (Texas), Artistic Director of the Sitka Music Festival (Alaska) and Professor of Cello at University of Texas at El Paso:
Emily Bear is obviously classically trained. But she’s not just an interpreter and performer. She writes her own music. Everything that you hear on that album came from her. She wrote everyone’s part. She directed us. One forgets within minutes that you’re listening to someone who is a child. : She is an absolutely exceptional… It’s literally... It makes one believe the myths and the grandeur of what Mozart would have been like had you met him. This person is so purely gifted that music simply pours out of her. It pours out with such joy and creativity and spontaneity that you just stand back in awe.
It’s rather mind-boggling. This ability comes around so rarely. I believe the word prodigy is so so so overused for business tactics and salability.

John Beall
Truly impressed with the overall complexity of this new piece by Emily. I noted in particular the brilliant interaction between the rhythmic and melodic parts of "Les Voyages." I also enjoyed the very distinct and dramatic cadence at about 1:26 in this video.
Regarding the orchestration - wow! I know at this age Mendelssohn was writing for string orchestras, using at most 5 instrument parts. Mozart usually wrote at age 13 for very small orchestras; oboe, (sometimes flute), bassoon, horn, tympani and strings. However orchestrating for a full modern orchestra (including piano and harp) is another thing altogether. Again I say, wow! Most deserving of another ASCAP award for young composers.

Disney has approached her about composing film scores, Joe (Joseph) Illick added.
And, unlike some accomplished young musicians, she doesn’t just play the notes correctly, but reaches down into the heart of a piece of music, he said. “She plays someone else’s music as if she were creating it,” Illick said.
And she has been composing her own pieces for years. “The ideas she has are totally original,” he said. “Most of us compose by mimicking and altering (works that already exist), but she comes out with a new kind of idea that no one has had before.”
Bear’s compositions often are a mixture of classical and jazz styles, he said,

Part of inteview Bilboard with Quincy Jones about Emily Bear.at age 9.
Is another Quincy album coming?
Quincy: Then there's Emily Bear; President Obama calls her "Baby Mozart." She's been writing for symphonies since she was 5 and also plays bossa nova and the blues. She sings "Celie's Blues" from "Color Purple," anything. When we first met her, her feet wouldn't even touch the floor. She just did a concert at Carnegie Hall with a choir and a symphony orchestra.
She’s the most delightful human being I’ve ever met in my life. And her music is the same way. I am at once astounded and inspired by the enormous talent that Emily embodies. With the ability to seamlessly move from Classical to Jazz and Be-bop, she shows as much musical prowess as pianists/composers twice her age, and I am thrilled to be working with her. She’s astounding, man … she’s astounding. She plays like she’s 40 years old. She is the complete 360-degree package, and there are no limits to the musical heights she can reach.”
