How To Be A Good Listener...Even If You're Deaf

The world's only full time percussionist, Evelyn Glennie, teaches us how to listen.  The lesson is all the more profound because she is profoundly deaf.  I love her work and have followed her for the better part of a decade.  I've seen her perform and attended her master classes and once enjoyed the great privilege of a conversation with her.  All I can say is that we all can learn a great deal from her.
