Evelyn heard music by sensing the notes in different parts of her body. When Ron Forbes tuned two drums to different notes and she could sense the sound without using her ears, she could feel the higher drum from the waist up and the lower drum from the waist down. She learnt how to open her mind and body to sounds and vibrations. It was her determination, passion and hard work. When she played the xylophone, she sensed the sound passing up the stick by her fingertips. She removed her shoes on a wooden platform so that the vibrations could pass through her bare feet and up her legs. It tingled in the skin, her cheekbones and even in her hair. By leaning against the drums, she could feel the vibrations flowing into her body.
