- 7. Evelyn Glennie's story is one of remarkable determination triumphing over disability. As a young Scottish girl, she gradually lost her hearing and became profoundly deaf, which might have ended any hope of a musical career. But Evelyn refused to give up her love of music. Instead of relying on her ears, she learned to sense sound in a different way — feeling the vibrations of the music through her body, for example through her feet and skin. With the encouragement of an understanding teacher who believed in her, she trained hard as a percussionist, mastering many instruments. Through sheer dedication and perseverance, she rose to become a world-famous multi-percussionist, performing across the globe. Her life shows that with determination and the right support, even a severe disability cannot stop a person from achieving greatness.
