How are personal experience and public impact related in the art of both artists?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Personal devotion becomes public inspiration
The governing idea is that disciplined personal experience can acquire a wider social meaning through art. Evelyn Glennie responded to profound hearing loss by learning to sense rhythm through vibrations, persistent practice and bodily awareness; her success therefore became an inspiring example of overcoming limitation. Bismillah Khan devoted himself to the shehnai, refined it through lifelong riyaaz, and carried an Indian musical tradition to national and international audiences. Thus option A is correct: private dedication becomes public inspiration. Option B wrongly separates life from art, while C ignores practice and D reduces meaningful art to sorrow alone.
