Evelyn Glennie
Grammy award-winner Evelyn Glennie is the most in-demand solo percussionist in the world. She is the first person to have created and sustained a full-time career as a solo percussionist in the history of classical music, and she gives more than 100 performances a year to universal critical acclaim. Evelyn has performed with virtually all the world's finest orchestras and greatest conductors in the most prestigious concert halls. Superb technical ability and a profound appreciation of the visual elements of percussion take her into the ranks of the elite, and an opportunity to see her perform should not be missed.
