PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: "We cannot explain what you are about to hear. Science doesn't know enough about the brain to make sense of Alma." So says Scot t Pelley as he introduces his 2017 profile of musical prodigy, Alma Deutscher. Alma is an accomplished British composer in the classical style, she is a virtuoso on the piano and also the violin, and she is 12 years old!

Also featured in this amazing "60 Minutes," aired October 28, 2023, is Morley Safer's report from 2012 on math and science prodigy Jake Barnett; from 2013, Safer's interview with teenage science student Jack Andraka, who may have invented an early test for pancreatic cancer; and Bob Simon's 2012 report on 21-year-old chess grandmaster Magnus Carlsen.
