An interesting TED conference lecture about listening featuring Evelyn Glennie, a deaf percussionist.

Re: TED
Evelyn Glennie is great. If you can find it, see the documentary about her, Touch the Sound. I bought it because Fred Frith is in it, but now I'm a fan of hers as well.

Re: TED Not TED
Ok This is not TED but after watching Evelyn Glennie you might enjoy Ruth Underwood after all these years... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSmyCuU_pEo

Re: TED
Thanks, I'll pick that one up. He's got so many (always interesting) recordings out, it's difficult to keep up with them all....
