Watch: 10 year-old in wheelchair gets to conduct the Philharmonic
mainNorton, 10 years old, has epilepsy and other severe issues.
He wants to conduct. The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic and Karina Canellakis made it happen.
You will not be able to watch this clip with dry eyes.
you are right Norman, no dry eyes…
Indeed, wet eyes, and then some.
Just as it is hard to see with a dry eye what good music therapists do with special needs kids on a regular, one-on-one basis.
Big day indeed, fantastic
Pure awesomeness!
BTW, Karina Kanellakis is SOME conductor. Heard her with Orchestre de Paris last June where the orchestra along with the audience gave her five curtain calls.
She is one of the greatest conductors ever!
A last something nice, thanks Norman. Now if only every one was so kind.
Great story, thanks!
