Evelyn Glennie plays Ney Rosauro Marimba Concerto I

[Varky93]

Deaf is an exaggeration... more slightly hard of hearing.

[Hamgammy]

hard to feel sorry for her deafness when she cheated on her husband and humiliated him publicly the way she did

[mrmrquaker]

yo la amo desde niño

[JOEdoesThings22]

@ch252525 its just you

[Mitscon]

It's kinda sad that Evelyn Glennie is deaf. She cannot hear the wonderful music that she is playing. But she indeed is one of the best marimbaists ever.

[clolom95]

8:51...the look of a badasss pro!

[BranBranRey]

her ears can hardly hear but she knows how to tune and stuff by how the vibrations feel.

[sicknutt]

SHE'S NOT DEAF!

[Yubranka]

evelyn es la mejor marimbista del planeta la amo *--*

[Yubranka]

evelyn es la mejor marimbista del planeta la amo *--*

[setnewer]

wow she fucking sucks

[Bolorinvasore]

Althought she's deaf, the orchestra could play in tune I think

[saxyviolist]

It is so amazing, how musicians can be deaf and still play perfectly. It's phenominal!

[sivadepilif]

too fast, loses the swing...

[bucoslo]

@sivadepilif dude whes deaf rofl i bet oyu couldnt play that. and shes one of the best if not the best marimba/percussion player

[brenno08]

Has anyone found out what sort of mallets she is using yet?

[JOEdoesThings22]

2 people are mentally ill

[JOEdoesThings22]

i saw her premier a multipercussion concerto with the BPO... Incredible

[BITNABITaccount]

One of my band directors knew Ney Rosaro. 

[Dominomusicians]

ney rosauro was on the Landes-Musik-Gymnasium (a music-school)!

In the drum-class he saidto me that evelin plays it too... ähh... a kind of hard...

bu of course it's great!

I can't believe that ney was at our school!

[lovesGenet]

wow , this is great . Fianlly some music even ignorant people will like. A living composer I hope.what great humor and lively orchestration.FABULOUS!

[calinyoo]

she is better than keiko abe

[calinyoo]

@sag8t .omg man!! and speed???? you are retarded look at her tehnique.......is amaizing !!!

[dmjust]

@sag8t i would very much like to see you get deaf at age 8 and do one tenth of what evelyn has done. you daft prick

[BITNABITaccount]

@sag8t How do you know for a fact that this person will never meet Evelyn?

[sag8t]

@BITNABITaccount Im not getting back into this.

[FATSIFATSI]

does ne1 know what kind of mallets she uses n this? i want them...

[proman2world]

EPIC

[beaverteeth92]

What kind of mallets are those?

[beaverteeth92]

@beaverteeth92 As in the white ones?

[fcmilsweeper9]

Why does/ how does she move to the music if shes deaf????

[jkdoe7000]

I didn't understand either. She can only hear sounds louder than 190 decibels. A jet engine registers at about 140 decibels. So it's pretty safe to say she's rather deaf. I think she says she "hears" by feeling vibrations.

[Deanluis]

Vibrations and the conductor's movements, maybe.

[takinbases]

really good, really accurate...WEIRD sticking.

[colinmdrum]

YES! I just noticed that after reading your comment. The best I can discern is that it either 1) Helps with making the rhythms speak clearly or 2) is an attempt to keep her hands from falling off by the end of the performance, basically by evenly distributing things? Your guess is as good as mine.

[takinbases]

yea maybe if she was at the marked 152 beats she wouldn't have to worry about fatigue so much ha. she's hittin about 180 here!

[colinmdrum]

AHHHH!!!

I'm working on this right now, and tempos like that make my hands fall off.

[GMetakins]

Could be a marching show about that with the incredible tempo! haha...

[kobiianardo]

hard to imagine those puny little wooden sticks are not cracked or bent by the end of the performance. and lawwl 80's hair, i bet she can hear extra more betterer because of the massive hair vibrating on her skull.

[cajunstix]

she is deaf...

[fcmilsweeper9]

@kobiianardo

My hair is a falcon, your argument is invalid.

[l0c0m0nster]

i just saw her live. it was nuts. she is sooooooooo good. she has a almost magical presence

[mpercussion]

Amazing !!! 10000 stars

[loynorrix1stnet]

if you see her other performances she does most of it with her eyes closed

[Serdg2000]

May be she as great solo performer... but ensamble on this video not best ( she as playing alone and orchestra plaing not together with her) its not professionaly !

[moskraciun]

she's the best

[calinyoo]

@moskraciun

[percussionguy101]

wow.. i actually don't like her interpretation on most of this. Still a great player though!

[zuzrwolrd]

it's all about the emotion it contains

[percussionguy101]

Ya thats true she is still way good and it has a lot of emotion i just didn't like how fast it was and how some of the interpretations were..
