    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lera_Auerbach Today I listened to The Little Mermaid, music by Lera Auerbach. The ballet was composed as recently as 2005, revised in 2007 (recorded here).

Have these great minds ever wasted their talents because of their circumstance and so they ended up composing what they may be forced to do so, rather than out of pure artistic freedom? Looking at Bach, he composed few hundred...
