More From Evelyn Glennie
- "I hope the seeds I have sown will be taken up by those who will follow me because the journey I have begun cannot be undertaken in isolation."
- "I didn’t decide to become a musician until the age of 15, which is quite late."
- "And as I grew older, I then auditioned for the Royal Academy of Music in London, and they said, well, no, we won’t accept you, because we haven’t a clue – you know – of the future of a so-called ‘deaf’ musician. And I just couldn’t quite accept that."
