My daughter and I had a similar experience in a movie theater. We went to see the live action Beauty and the Beast. Behind us was a child of about five with his mother. At the end of each of the previews he would ask his mom, "Can we go see that?" Mom would reply, "Yes." Finally in exasperation she replied, "We can go see all of them." He was very well behaved and was very quiet until Belle came to the top of the stairs in the gold dress and we hear, "WOW." It was so appropriate that it broke up the entire theater. I love magical moments like that.

My late mother would agree with you. She was a Teacher's Aide in a Special Needs School, working with students who still needed schooling (ages 18 through 25), although by mainstream school standards, they were chronically ready to graduate. Mom, and the teacher with whom she worked, would play classical music for their students for one hour per day, but split into four quarter hour sessions. She said the music worked wonders to help the students calm themselves and to regain focus.

I work in an ASD classroom at times. A couple years ago, we had a student who was nonverbal and prone to hitting/punching. One day, he came and leaned against me, and I just started singing softly to him kind of reflexively. He climbed up into my lap and sat there for about 40 minutes while I sang the song over and over. At one point, I tried to play a video of the song, but he pushed the tablet away. So I kept singing. Music made a bridge for us.

Many Autistics have a strong connection to music. It’s great to see that connection established in this case here. I work with adults with various disabilities- many of them Autistic. A number of them start out with a very short playlist of favorite songs- some are even obsessions with them. But over time they gradually expand their lists and it always great to see and hear about whatever they add to those lists (BTW- I sing 2nd Alto in the Bach Festival Chorale in Florida- and I am an Autistic.).

I was once preparing Handel's Rejoice for a community music center Messiah Sing. As part of the prep, everyone sang their solos ahead of time in small studio recitals. There were so many of us that I got put in the Suzuki recital - there were a lot of small children) sensitive to high pitches!) in a small room, so I warned them ahead of time: cover your ears if you need to, I won't be offended. Well. A mom came up to me afterward and said her son was autistic, usually sensitive to sound, but as soon as I started singing he started laughing and giggling and couldn't stop, because the music made him so happy. My gosh, a light bulb went off in my head. I had been singing that song off and on for fifteen years and it had never occurred to me it is ONE BIG LAUGH. I'm so grateful to that kid and his insight. From then on, my goal every time I sang that song was to make at least one person laugh.

Back in 1992, I took a group of friends to a concert by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and the finale was Respighi's "Pines of Rome." I'd been playing trombone for decades in bands and orchestras so I was prepared. My friends had never been to an orchestra concert so they had no idea what to expect. They'd just been to concerts of rock and popular music and were thinking that they might be bored by the whole experience. Anyone familiar with Pines knows about its climax...if you're in the audience, you might as well be inside a pipe organ with all stops pulled out. Afterward, I joined most of the audience for a standing O, but I looked back at my friends who were still sitting...They were wide-eyed, slack-jawed but silent...stunned. I think they were wondering if this experience had somehow injured them physically. They just all said, "What the hell was THAT...?! It was such a gratifying moment for me...

When I was in junior high school our school in NH had field trips to see the Boston Symphony Pops in that very same hall. Nearly 50 years later and I still cherish that experience and the lesson in music appreciation.

This is awesome! Music is so powerful and speaks to people on a different level. I would be lost without it. It comforts, heals, and mesmorizes me. Its my barometer. I wake up everyday with a song in my head. There's always music going through my brain. If ever there's a day where I don't wake up with music or it's silent in my brain, I stop and take stock. The music returns and wraps me up inside and out like a comfy blanket. I'm so glad this young boy has this joy and comfort of music when he's unable to verbalize what is happening in his world.😊.
