Boston’s Handel and Haydn Society set off a global search after a kid shouted ‘wow’ at the end of Mozart’s Masonic Funeral on Sunday.

Finally, they found him.

The boy is nine years old. He has been named as Ronan Mattin. His grandfather Stephen took him to the concert.

The family say that Ronan is on the autism spectrum and ‘expresses himself differently from how other people do’.

A Skype meeting is being set up with the conductor, Harry Christophers.
