Evelyn Glennie - "Clapping Music"

- Опубликовано: 16 окт 2024
- Dame Evelyn plays "Clapping Music" by Steve Reich. This short comes from assorted performances including "Hothouse 07" at Doncaster in the UK.
SOme below comments ask what the "click" is that can be heard; it is yet another jam block, played with a foot pedal. The footage is comprised of multiple events and venues and times at which the piece has been performed but the same audio was used for the whole clip.

I can't play like this music even I can hear but this lady is unbelievable she can play music without hearing 😲 awesome!!!
Hi There Kartik (and many others), You're making the assumption that deafness is an On or Off condition which is untrue. Perhaps I might refer you to Evelyn's essay on her perspective? www.evelyn.co.uk/hearing-essay/.
This is Dame Evelyn's "arrangement" of Clapping Music. Mr. Reich always asks that the two parts sound as similar as possible in volume and timbre. Part of the aim of the piece was to eliminate the need to carry any instruments at all, and there is also the obvious reference to Flamenco (all of which is missed in an arrangement for instruments played with sticks). Clapping Music does not indicate one pattern "slowly drifting out of phase with another", unless it is performed poorly!
No. I was the Show producer and her tech manager when these shots were taken, she pre-viewed this material. I have her full permission. Thx for watching out though.
I've seen her the first time at the olympics opening, fell into a crush immediatly. What an expiring woman!
Exceptional
What are you talking about, she is playing the piece as two performers would.
Her right hand is playing the primary pattern throughout the performance just as the first (clapping) performer is instructed. And with her left hand she is playing the permutations of that pattern as the second (clapping) performer would. while keeping dotted quarter note pulse in clave pedal. I don't know what you find wrong with this performance. Listen and you can hear the piece.
I have always had the greatest respect for Evelyn. Amazing talent !
This woman is the coolest of them all! I need an hour to get a hold of doing only one line for clapping, and she's doing both lines at the same time! Amazing :)
Awesome job! :D I can't wait to see the Pittsburgh New Music Ensemble's performance of this piece this summer. :) Thanks for posting!
Evelyn Glennie would be one of the few people in the world who can play this piece all by herself. That is some fearsome percussion skillz.
I have the score since I'm working on a drum set adaptation, and in Steve Reich's notes he says that a time signature is not given to avoid any accenting other than the downbeat given by the performer that isn't phasing. The piece could be interpreted most easily as 12/8 or 6/4. 12/8 is more accurate than in 4/4 with triplets.
U are an excellent person Iam reading ur story in my english book I got inspired of u
Awesome ! Very very extraordinary and beautiful .
This ladys music comes straight from the soul. I was speaking to Chris Frantz (former drummer with Talking Heads, now Tom Tom Club ) about her work, and he also is a huge fan. Her music crosses great divides. Thank you for posting.
Thanks to my beehive english book to introduce u maam you to good achiever i am very inspire to you you are my inspiration 😘😘😘👏👏👏👍👍👍
If you watch the video of her talk at TED you will know why she plays any particular piece of music the way she does. She gave a vivid demonstration by playing the same piece as a "technician" and again as a "musician". In the music world technicians don't build brilliant careers as solo performers. Let's be thankful for this immensely talented MUSICIAN and really listen to her music.
You have to remember something though, the piece is written for two people and she is performing it as one. That means playing the first line steady with one hand and changing the other line with the other. Not so easy.
Amazing talent to separate the left and right hands as one maintains the beat and the other shifts. Thank you for uploading!
The only thing that matters with this amazing human being is her entertaining. She creates music and sound, but more importantly she performs. She has had a huge profound impact on me since i saw her perform Veni Veni Emmanuel, and that effect is far in a way more important then her ability to here.
@ummagummas08 - Reich deliberately didn't put a time signature on the score, but it's written with 12 quavers to a bar, and the instructions talk about it being in 6/4, with a start count of six. Reich himself says he thinks of it in 3/2 but Evelyn's got a 12/8 thing going with that dotted-crotchet pulse, which makes it feel like a completely different piece. Marvellous, and dead hard.
There are very few people in this world who could pull off this piece so well as a soloist! And of course only Evelyn can do it in the way she can!
I saw her last night playing :D Beautiful!
Thx to the beehive (our english book)for introducing you👌👌🙌🙌
You're a legend. Very thankful for my book to introduce you.
I too first became aware of Evelyn Gennie at the opening ceremony of the 2012 Olympics and while I agree 100% with your sentiments I believe the worlds your are looking for are 'exciting' and 'inspiring'... 'expiring' indicates she is dying or something...
I've got the Universal Edition, and it has Reich's Directions for Performance from December 1972, where he says, "It is for this reason that a time signature of 6/4 or 12/8 is not given - to avoid metrical accents." :)
wow she's so great!!
I not only' liked' it I LOVE IT
@Juneshowers you are mistaken, and obviously deaf....this IS clapping music, it's just that since there is ONE little extra note added in it (and it's a 4/4 pulse, when clapping music is in 3/8) it causes a different perception of the piece.....i've played this hundreds of times, it is engrained in my mind, and i can play it over several ostinato's (i have videos of it too) so i know that this is correct!
whoa, this is hipnotic.
English textbooks nowadays are so brilliant for introducing us great people🥰
"SOUND OF MUSIC "🎵🎶🎶🎶🎶
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Superb 👍
Mam I m reading the chapter the sound of music about you you are a very inspiring personality
This women is just Fantastic...
@RabbitDance There are many types of deafness. Actualy, it would be right to call it Hearing Impairment. Some can speak clearly, and actualy hear between some intervals of frequencies.
Hats off yrrrr ❤️❤️
incredible.
wow...great music
She has musical genius that far outweighs the importance of wether or not she can hear or not! I know it is a subject for mass speculation but its really unimportant, she never made a deal out of her hearing difficulties, she didnt have to due to the media portail.
yup it's true, she's amazing!
Yaa greatest ever 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Mam your really very inspiring use
The woman is an inspiration!
i am so sad to miss her concerts
well do you know a web adress that shows her concert programme
Nice mam!totally significant! I have recently learnt a chapter of English on you,and so came to known more about you.Its really very fab😊
Manasi Govindpurkar the name of that chapter is (THE SOUND OF MUSIC)
@@vanshtyagi4759 yeah!!
same i am studying that
Absolutely! Inspiring I mean. That kind of misnomers occasionally happen to me as non-native speaker *g*
This seems like a good practice pad exercise. I'm going to practice this, then do it every day forever.
when you have an experience like that considering it annoying and repetitive it serves you to take a look at more of steve reich's work, it is all about what's called phase shifts, taking a rhythm and shifting it, in this piece it is by one eight note until the piece has come full circle, you must try and fully understand what is happening to appreciate it, i can barely clap this with someone else rather than perform it by yourself!
that is so damn cool!
whoa...that is...wow...what percussionist can live up to this?
why does it keep cutting back and forth between two different sets?
amazing, ty!
awesome!
Great 🙏🙏🙏
Mam I came to know you after reading my English book handsup to you mam
So just what are you "principal bass" of, anyway, Ms. Modest?
Interesting. I never thought of this as a solo piece. Still, though, the piece loses something in this format. One of the things about clapping is that no two claps, even by the same person, are exactly the same - it gives the piece a sort of bubbly quality that I think gets lost on the wood blocks.
It was one tune. Of course it all sounded "all the same" as you say. But it wasn't the same. It was related, and similar, and harmonious. NOT the same.
Good performance, I don't like that it was changed from hands to wood/temple blocks, that's not what Reich intended for the piece. But I guess if you really want to perform it live as a solo work, this is the next best thing to do. I would have liked to have seen it done more like Gavin Harrison's Drum Music or Cymbal music from Rhythmic Horizons, which is a multi-frame video of him performing all of the parts in different takes, played back simultaneously.
Is this in 5/4? Sounds like it with that metronome..
Nice
isn't this a copyright vio?
Thanks a lot of,,
beehive book
You are genius
you haven't heard her lecture on listening at TED?
I love how she made her bracelet part of the piece
Funny then, the information she seems to give in open and honest terms on her website...
Offensive or pointless comments will be removed because they are offensive and pointless. Got it ?
Vannak művészetek, melyeket nem fogsz megérteni :) Van ilyen ;)
that's perfectly fine as it is your own feeling towards this piece however I still feel the same towards it when I hear it as a percussionist which will not be otherwise persuaded
Mam I have read you in my English book and I like how you struggle for be coming success full in your life
The way she plays it doesn't sound like three groups of 2 quavers a La Reich. More like 2 groups of 3. But does that matter? Music is partly about intetpretation to create something slightly different. This is a hard enough piegce for a group. And she does a solo!
Amazing.
I only watched this because we did it in a practise test
Beehive has shown the real meaning of magic
I read about u in my English book
you have to see "touch the sound" an impressive documentary able to answer your doubts about her hearing,
it's ok, that what makes the English language so entertaining! :-P
I am reading about you in my ncert text book class 9
Wow, ein tolles Rythmus....
OP. IN. THE. CHAT. 💚💚💚💚💚💚🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤💜💜💜💜💜💞💞💞💞💞⭕⭕⭕😎😎
For all who don't know
She can't hear
I must be crazy, because except for the very end, the entire piece sounded the same. 😕

I'm here because of beehive ch sound of music 🎶
Mam I read about you in my english book
Love you EVLYN 😊
Hello mam for blessing you
Harder? How many, no matter how piss-poor, musicians have you heard who don't really listen, too easily go off on their own, like people who speak in monologues, rather than dialogue? Her disability has left her with proprioception, drawing her attention there. If we of better hearing would cultivate feeling-listening we'd be well rewarded, aside from increasing potential in musicianship. Lucky you to have worked with her. I believe people here think she isn't deaf, cuz she speaks so clearly.
How does she get her brain to do that?!
Temple Blocks
and I should have said 'words you are looking for...' and not 'worlds...' Doh!
U r super mam......
Needs moar cowbell. Aside from that, she's like another beethoven :o. Hearing through vibrations :o.
her teacher mr forbes was a very important part of her life and did you know she was deaf
