Answer:
1. Evelyn Glennie lost her hearing capacity, partially , when she was 8 years old and lost completely when she was 11 years old.
2. Percussionist James Blades say about Evelyn Glennie's music "God may have taken her hearing but he has given her back something extraordinary. What we hear, she feels - far more deeply than any of us. That is why she expresses music so beautifully.".
3. Glennie made her professional debut in 1985, and it did not take long for her musical adventurousness to show itself. In addition to performing with classical ensembles, she commissioned new works (more than 130 works by 2008), single-handedly expanding the repertoire of works for solo percussion.
4. Percussionist Ron Forbes, who had spotted Evelyn's talent, encouraged her to pursue her passion for music. He began by tuning two large drums to different notes. Forbes would tell Evelyn not to listen through her ears, but to sense the sound of music through some other way.
5. Evelyn could sense music through her body. While playing on the xylophone, she could sense music through her fingertips and would learn against drums to sense. On the wooden floors, she used to remove her shoes and sense music through her feet moving of the legs.
6. Evelyn never gave up and she had courage to face the situation of deafness and because of her determination and courage she got success,This quality of Evelyn impressed me the most.
