Thanks, Adaryn. I wondered where the school was and these extra details really add to the bigger picture. It was a very moving performance for me and to think that the choir behind her also had some learning difficulties makes it even more extraordinary. It's nice to have a bright spot here and there. :halo:

Yes indeed, I read the article at the Huffington Post, but missed to share it hehe..Thanks Adaryn :D

I was thinking about how music therapy helps kids with autism, and this is a clear example I think, you can sense that the kids and her, enjoy the music very much. I have a nephew with autism, and whenever he listens to music he starts dancing and smiling, I remember 3 years ago I spent my christmas with them, and he got a set to play like a DJ hehe, and he was so very happy with it :D

It makes me think of this video that I saw a while ago. A father takes his autistic son to a Coldplay concert (his favourite band, apparently), and the child is overwhelmed with emotion and starts crying (I guess he's so happy!). It's very moving.

Yes! I saw it too, and I thought it was a very nice bonding experience for them. Also I think the colours and the show in particular may have stimulated more his senses, it was here in Mexico, and the clips I saw from the show in general were filled with colour and visuals. It was very touching to see :love:
 
Russian Folk Music That Will Make You Thrill :)


“Beyond The Quiet River”

Beyond the quiet river and birch grove
The first spring flower is bursting into bloom
And I am simply making a wish
And having crossed myself, I will glance to the East
The sky will be coloured (lit: colour itself) by scarlet dawn
And the eternal sun will rise over the world
And a white bird will fly over the earth
And bring God’s forgiveness from the heavens

And something big will make itself known to my heart
Such that it is not [possible] to take in in my lifetime
And it will become peaceful and sweet like in childhood
When my mother hugged me

A solemn prayer will flow with tears
Sadness will be filled with Christ’s love
And at that moment my soul will touch
The grand entirety with the name of Russia

In their memory, re-posting two of my favorite interprations. I've listened to them multiple times.

Ensemble Alexandrov (Red Army Choir) at the invitation of Pope John Paul II gave an exclusive concert in the Vatican (October 15, 2004).

Marconi Union - Weightless

apparently this song reduces anxiety by 65 percent, it is relaxing :)

A group of sound therapists and a British band, Marconi Union, have created an eight minute long song 'Weightless', which scientists claim is the most relaxing ever in the history of man. Weightless is a beautiful arrangement of harmonies, rhythms and bass lines that is apparently so relaxing that it is advised not to listen to it while driving. The soothing musical tune helps slow the heart rate, calm breathing, reduce blood pressure and also lower the levels of stress.
