'The Sound of Music: Part I'

Explanation:

The first part of 'The Sound of Music' discusses the inspiring tale of the struggle of the renowned percussionist Evelyn Glennie to pursue music as her career despite her physical disability. The story begins with the childhood of Evelyn Glennie when she came to know about her deafness at the tender age of eleven. She desperately wished to pursue her music career but her teachers discouraged her to not move ahead in this domain. It was Ron Forbes who inspired her to explore her talent and help her recognize her true talent and potential. He told her that 'music need not be listened to but to be felt.' He helped her feel the vibrations of the sound through the different parts of her body('higher drum from the above waist and lower drum from the below part of the body and other vibrations from the skin, hair, cheekbones, etc.). This eventually led her to begin the never-ending musical journey of her life that not only brought her fame and made her an overnight sensation but also made her an inspiration to the thousands of disabled individuals who are willing to pursue their dreams.
