The Clowner


"Can You Hear It ?", or The Future Face of Hollywood Starlets?

On this episode of music that don't jive on the radio, we have a percussionist. Miss Evelyn Glennie, featured in the outstanding Touch The Sound documentary. This Scottish being of sound goes around the globe in search of rhythm, the part of music that can be physically felt. She explores the existence of sound and how unique sounds that we take for granted make up the music in our day to day life. Oh yeah, did i mention that she is deaf.

Fred Frith & Evelyn Glennie - Scuttlebutt (Abstract) - this collaboration was featured in the Touch the Sound documentary.

Björk & Evelyn Glennie - Oxygen (Classical) - Glennie collaborated with Bjork on 2 tracks. The other one being My Spine which was featured on Bjork's Telegram release.
