**Steven Calabresi was a child prodigy in music composition. Born in 1975, at age 6, he wrote his first symphony (Op. # 16, which takes about fifteen minutes to perform). Just like many other child prodigies in music composition, he kept on writing so much music, the stress of his career caused his death in 2012 at the tender age of thirty seven. However, he had already written 82 symphonies ]he wrote his "24 Hour Symphony" (which takes pretty much 24 hours on the dot to perform in its entirety), in just thirty six hours (with his only breaks being for meals and bathroom breaks)], 49 Concertos, 4 Operas, 3 Ballets, 12 Overtures, 35 Music Scores for Movies.
