The Boy With The Broken Greenhouse is an emotive and minimalist modern classical piece by composer Jeremias Langsämmer.

Taken from the conceptual album 12 Minutes—an exploration of brief, intense musical moments—this track, like the others, lasts exactly 90 seconds.

The composition is built around a captivating, repeating ostinato phrase featuring pizzicato strings and piano. Over this rhythmic and hypnotic foundation, Langsämmer delicately adds an embroidered melody for piano and a rich counter-line for cello. It's a perfect blend of minimalism and emotional neoclassical composition.
