The Wider Image: “Music is their language”: school gives autistic

Zu Wenbao, 23, sings onstage during a performance at Renji Hotel, a campsite on the outskirts of Beijing, China September 11, 2022. Zu, who is non-verbal, started learning music free of charge at Chen’s Studio, which started lessons for people with autism just as the pandemic began. He has since learned to play the keyboard, and sings along with the four other members of the Star Kids band their teacher, Chen Shensi, set up last year for people with autism.  REUTERS/Tingshu Wang
