Evelyn Glennie: Shows How to Listen
A couple days ago, we watched a "TED Talks" video about a deaf person named that Evelyn Glennie taught people how to listen. Something that I noticed about her performance was that very small differences in pitches that may even be inaudible to the human ear can easily be felt. When she played the Marimba, she payed a song that made me feel energized. Her movements and the tone of the song helped create this feeling. One element of her performance was body movements. When she pretended to hit the keys on the Marimba, the audiance imagined notes, but nothing was played. Each person experiences music differently because each song can give someone a different feeling.
