Mozart was composing by the age of four and beethoven was just seven when he gave his first public performance. Now, a young boy from france is the lates to join their ranks, as tim allman reports. Meet the maestro. The mini maestro. This boy is six years old and have an extraordinary gift. He has been playing piano since he was a toddler, picking out keys, sat on his mothers lap. A remarkable young man, although, he sounds very blase about it all. Translation i read the sheets. The notes. I try to play several times without mistakes with the right fingering. He began piano lessons at the age of four, his music teacher has never seen anything like it. Translation he has a rare talent. I have met talented people in my career, but not like him. When i talk about talent, it is a mix of things, a mix of mind, heartand hands. You may be something special, but he is still a six year old boy. Both his parents are amateur musicians and say they will support him in anything he chooses to do. Translation i live with him, every day is full of adventure because i love music and my husband as well. He has progressed fast and every night we have concerts and new melodies. Not content with the piano, he wants to learn how to play the violin. His ambition, like his talent, seems endless. Tim allman, bbc news. What an incredible talent. Now on bbc news, five years ago, more than a Million People crossed into europe many taking huge risks as they embarked on dangerous journeys in an effort to escape conflict and for a better life. The migrants who came to europe in 2015 including here to sicily were hoping to find shelter from war and terror or new opportunities for a better life. But their journey was often difficult and dangerous. Thousands died attempting to reach europes shores. And while some countries opened their arms,
others put up fences and closed their borders. Italy was one of the main destinations, and migration deepened divisions here, leading to the far right entering government. This tiny island of lampedusa is still struggling with migrant arrivals five years on. The joy of getting a chance at life. Her name, francesca miracle after her birth on an italian rescue boat in 2015 as her mother fled libya. Suffering seizures and in intensive care, they almost didnt make it. The bbc met them back then. Now settled in sicily, weve come back. Ciao, francesca, sono mark. Si. Come stai . Bene. Was everything you went through worth it . Yes, it was worth it,
because most of the people they are dreaming to be in my shoes, that you have you have got outside the country. So i think you are blessed. Youre lucky. So i think i should, should be happy for that. They were among the million migrants who made it to europe at the height of the migration crisis of 2015, changing its society and politics. Thousands more drowned en route, nameless in the graveyard of the mediterranean. Five years on, theyre still coming. The camp in lampedusa to the south of sicily, crowded and guarded. So far, arrivals this year are a third of what they were in 2015. And yet this camp is already way past capacity. And then for a coronavirus into the explosive mix, pushing migrants to flee suffering economies, creating quarantine concerns and reawa kening the old migration tensions in italian society. In squalid conditions, migrants here say they know
of several cases inside. Theres pressure to clear the camp and reduce the burden on this gateway to europe. Hamza tells me he wants to work to send money back to his wife and daughter in tunisia. Translation we took the risk of dying at sea. Now were at risk of dying from coronavirus here. We left the misery of our country. But if i had known what misery there will be here, i will have stayed in tunisia. Even life there is better than this. In mainland sicily, too, theyre expecting arrivals. This new camp is being built in a disused air base to quarantine them. Thats stoking opposition from the far right, which became italys most Popular Party and briefly entered government due to migration. Translation the European Union has left italy to handle the migration issue alone. And at the same time, italys leaving its regions like sicily on their own. Theres a danger to public order and now
also a health risk. Arent you fanning the flames of racism by speaking of an invasion . , i ask. No. Translation i would use the same language if we were being invaded by the english or the french. If tomorrow a thousand french landed in sicilys coast, i would also speak of an invasion. Some migrants are settling here. This centre teaching italian, as theyre woven into the fabric of modern italy. A story about security, integration, identity is far from over. Hundreds of thousands of migrants made the long trek up from the mediterranean via the balkans and eventually landed in hungary. But police there sealed off the main Railway Station to stop them from travelling further into europe, to places like austria and germany. Nick thorpe reports now from hungary on how the migration crisis changed that country. Reporting from this border through the summer of 2015, i once asked a photographer what he was planning to shoot that day. Just biblical scenes, he replied. Biblical scenes. The exodus that year was astonishing to witness. And of the million or more people who sought refuge in europe some 400,000 crossed hungary, and a good proportion of them entered hungary from serbia down this disused railway track. It all looks very familiar, today, only the crowds are missing. Then hungary built a fence to stop them. This man first suggested it. Laszlo, a local mayor. It was my idea. Im very happy. When the government built this this borderfence because we need these border fence, not only in the 2015. And not only today, but we need this border fence in the future. Few migrants attempt to cross the fence today. Those who do still reach western europe have found other routes. The government sees the fence as an unqualified success. The southern ramparts of fortress europe. We dont like other people coming here, especially different religions who we know are not going to by the rules religions who we know are not going to abide the rules and they are not going to follow the european way of life because their culture is different. Its not a matter of racism or anti racism. Its a matter of common sense. Back in 2015, the station in budapest was another bottleneck as tens of thousands of migrants tried to transit hungary towards northern europe. Last year, though, only 500 people were allowed to seek protection here in hungary. A handful of human Rights Groups defend the right to asylum despite bitter government hostility. Its very clear that whatever the hungarian government has done in the field of asylum since september 2015
is unlawful. Its become more difficult to stand up for refugees in europe, particularly here in hungary. But its still crucial that we do so. Iranian artist Abouzar Soltani and his 12 year old son face deportation when they lost their asylum bid. But the Helsinki Committee took their case to the Top European Court and won. Their new asylum request will be heard this week. Translation i was in a prison. But then i understood that was just politics. I realised people in hungary have big hearts and want to help us to be free. That they love refugees. I love hungary and would like to live here. Soon they hope to leave this open refugee camp and start a new life here. Asylum seekers like them who get the support they need still get through. Five years ago, the german chancellor, Angela Merkel, in effect, opened germanys doors to hundreds of thousands of people seeking asylum in europe. Jenny hill was at munich Railway Station as germans welcomed the new arrivals. Shes been back to bavaria to meet some of the people involved in the moment that changed the country and still divides opinion today. We can do this, said Angela Merkel. Its five years since germany opened its doors and its arms to tens of thousands of people. Many more would follow, hoping for the same warm welcome. I was proud of germany because germany didnt hesitate to help the refugees. Carmen, who speaks arabic, was among the many volunteers who came to munich station to help. When we look back and today, the situation today, all the doomsday scenarios didnt become true. We could not have closed our doors. And it brought change
to every part of germany. In abensberg, a conservative bavarian town, they had to accommodate and integrate around 200 refugees was there. Translation i still think it was a bit much for someone to sit in berlin and say we could manage knowing full well it was up to each and every local mayor to have to manage. If other eu countries had shared this burden, we wouldnt have had this level of political attention. If i could turn back time, i would ask much more of europe. Instead, anger, fear on german streets, fuelled by high profile migrant crime the Sexual Assault of women in cologne, or the terror attack on a berlin christmas market. As Angela Merkel battled a backlash, the far right flourished. Its now an established part of german politics. But during that time, mohamed,
who arrived in 2015, built a new life in abensberg. He learned german, got a job, had a family. Translation its like my home. Everything is good. We have residency like normal people. We have work. Its a good country. We have good neighbours. I like it a lot. But the story is not over. Not for those still trying to come to europe and not for those we met in this specially built refugee home on the edge of abensburg. Javid tells us he was 16 when he arrived in germany. Hes 21 now and still awaiting permission to stay here. I dont want to leave, he tells us in german. My future is here. What we witnessed here in 2015 was extraordinary. The euphoria, the drama, the anger have now faded, but you can still feel the consequences of that moment. It changed politics, it changed society. And many of the people who arrived here back then have begun to put down roots. They, too, will shape this countrys future. Almost 900,000 migrants arrived in greece in 2015. Today, the open armed welcome and sympathy from many greeks has evaporated. The government is determined not to allow the country to become a gateway to europe again and is actively deterring new arrivals. Although numbers remain well below the exceptional levels seen in 2015, the flow of people from turkey into greece by land, and then through the balkans into western europe, has picked up again. Lyse doucet reports from northern greece. The first rays of day, the first stirrings beneath the burnt out carriages in this rail yard in northern greece. And then theyre off. These young men are mostly from afghanistan, waiting tojump on a train, jump at a chance to move further
north into europe, a chance they hope, at a better life. We dont know which one is go, but all are ready for going. But so, too, are the police. Police comes, we run. A game of cat and mouse at this stop. This morning, the police win, they often do. 17 year old sadr is from pakistan. How many times have you tried tojump on a train . We are six times. Seven times. Each and every time, every one of them try to hang on them because the problem of here, police and immigration. Thats why the people leave this area. Their next destination, greeces border with north macedonia. Five years ago, thousands took this route through a tiny border village, a gateway to western europe through the balkans. Look at these fields now. This border is shut. But migrants are now
showing up again in smaller but growing numbers. These men were just pushed back by Border Guards in north macedonia, and we came across an afghan family waiting in the sunflowers, trying for a sixth time to sneak through. We try to go because the greece government said, go from greece. So what do we do . We cannot go back to afghanistan. This is our problem. So we try to go to. Another country. The welcome has gone cold in this little village. In southern greece, on scenic islands like samos, the mood is much the same. A camp built five years ago to house hundreds of migrants now sprawls across the hills. Thousands living in squalor, losing hope asylum cases will never be settled. We werent allowed to enter the camp. Residents filmed for us. Duraid shows us their food, bread gone mouldy. He fled syria with his family. There are far fewer arrivals on greek shores now. Look at how close turkey is. Its in touching distance of greece and they share a land border, too. So earlier this year, when tensions rose between turkey and europe, turkey sent more migrants towards greece. It could do it again. But right now, its greeces actions which are also causing concern. These videos appear to show migrants being pulled by the greek coast guard out of greek waters, back towards turkey in breach of international law. We obtained this material from groups monitoring traffic in the aegean sea. And the un says its also documented multiple cases. Without them sending a signal that greece has boarded. The European Union has broader borders and illegal crossings are not being tolerated. But we do so in compliance with international law. Life for migrants gets tougher under greeces conservative government. They insist greece wont be a gateway to europe again. It knows much of europe thinks the same. In 2015, sweden was one of the most welcoming countries to migrants, its asylum policies have since become significantly stricter. Five years ago, the bbc followed a young syrian woman, noor ahmad. She made her perilous journey north. A report from sweden now on how noors life has changed. Coffee with mum, a simple pleasure. Noor doesnt take for granted. They were separated as she travelled alone across Nine Countries to make it here. Her father died in the war in syria. Now shes learned swedish, got her driving licence and a job in a food warehouse. I have my apartment. I have my family. I have my dog. So i feel like im a stable, confident person right now. And what about making friends settling in . They are so like closed group the swedish people. So you canjust go in and be friends with someone. You cant do this. Do you have any swedish friends . No. Shed hoped for deeper connections, but still
feels lucky to be here. Thats because sweden, one of the most welcoming countries to migrants, changed its approach soon after she arrived. Limiting numbers and making temporary permits the norm for a center left government. It was a major shift in policy. Of course, it was a tough decision to make. But on the other hand, there was nothing else to do. There arrived 114,000 people to sweden. Injust four months. And it would have been impossible for sweden to keep on that pace. So we had to be very clear, well, if youre going to apply for asylum in europe, you have to choose other countries. Crime is also a big issue here in sweden. In cities, suburbs like this one, where almost everyone has an immigrant background. Theyve been high profile shootings in recent years, and thats led increasing numbers of swedes to vote for anti immigration parties, even though police say most
of the crimes are carried out by gangs and people whove grown up here, not new arrivals. And lots of locals say they do feel safe even if theyve lost friends in the violence like this 16 year old. Normal people dont have to be scared about that. If you are not involved in a gang, you dont have to be scared for nothing. If you are involved and you better run. How easy is it to. To be successful, if you come from a place like this to be successful, if you come from a place like this to to have a career, education . You only have two ways, either you play football or you do music. There are no other ways out. There is a strong push to improve life with a new Police Station and projects to help more people into work here and other segregated neighbourhoods. Its a big challenge to enter the job market in sweden. If you dont have a network and also to progress up, bring them in the market. We facilitate meetings with just ordinary swedes, but we match them on that. They have the background
in the same sector. And since the immigration away five years ago, we have facilitated for over 50,000 people to meet this way with a great impact, 24 get a job or an apprenticeship through our programme. While some new swedes are making their way, even in neighbourhoods that were already troubled, no one disputes that the decision to take in so many has brought challenges that is shaping this countrys future. Five years since the 2015 migrant crisis, hundreds of people are still drowning in the mediterranean, according to the International Organisation for migration. Despite a crackdown on smuggling. Many west africans are now making the perilous journey via the atlantic to the Canary Islands instead. Some have been shipwrecked and died. Others have returned home voluntarily or forcibly. A report from senegal. The senegalese coast is a starting point for many migrants who aspire to reach
europe or the Canary Islands in order to offer their families Better Living conditions. Like many young senegalese migrants, this man wanted to reach europe via libya. He left the a region in southern senegal and travelled tunisia before entering libya, where he started working in construction. He was 2a years old. There were three of them and they started he left the a region in southern senegal and travelled tunisia before entering libya, where he started working in construction. He was 2a years old. There were three of them and they started banging on the door. If i open it i asked if they were arabs or blacks, because i dont have any friends. When they answered that they were. I wanted to run awa
