Amazing Grace | Michigan Philharmonic Orchestra | Arts & Culture Special Performances

April 2, is Autism Awareness Day.
Stuart Carlson has autism.
His journey and his story are as amazing as he is.
SOME THOUGHTS FROM STUART: “On March 8, 1996, I was born prematurely at the U of M Hospital, weighing one pound and 13 ounces. In late 1999, I was diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome.
Autism gives me a variety of strengths and weaknesses not typical in the average human being. I face challenges such as a soft speaking voice, long processing time when asked a question, and problems with conversational participation. I’ve had many ‘passions’ about things such as doors, watches, voice recorders, radio jingles, weather stations, and ham radio, but I’ve always loved music.
I had a blast with the MPYO as an early teenager. I vividly remember the particular concert experience in 2010 that inspired me to become a professional musician: our MPYO played Shostakovitch's Festive Overture side-by-side with the Michigan Philharmonic! I am eternally grateful to Maestro Washburn and everyone at the MPYO who helped start me on my career path in the world of music.
I hope that I can be a role model and an inspiration to young people diagnosed with autism."
Stuart appeared with the Michigan Philharmonic in January in the chapel at St. John's in Plymouth. Here is his stunning arrangement of
“Amazing Grace” for solo violin and strings.

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me I once was lost, but now am found Was blind but now I see Was Grace that taught my heart to fear And Grace, my fears relieved How precious did that Grace appear The hour I first believed Through many dangers, toils and snares We have already come T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far And Grace will lead us home And Grace will lead us home Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me I once was lost but now am found Was blind but now I see Was blind, but now I see

1 Amazing grace! how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch; like me! I once was lost, but now am found, Was blind, but now I see. 2 ’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved; How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed! 3 The Lord hath promised good to me, His word my hope secures; He will my shield and portion be As long as life endures. 4 When we’ve been there ten thousand years, Bright shining as the sun, We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise Than when we first begun.
