Where did Evelyn Glennie learn to feel lower notes?

Advertisement

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Below the waist

The governing concept is Evelyn’s bodily perception of different musical pitches. She learned to recognise lower notes as vibrations in the lower part of her body, below the waist. This is paired with the lesson’s observation that higher notes were felt above the waist. Consequently, option B is correct. Option A is the opposite of the stated distinction, because the head is not identified as the place where lower notes were specially sensed. Options C and D are also unsuitable: the eyes do not perceive these musical vibrations, and Evelyn’s method was developed precisely because she could not rely only on her ears. The detail demonstrates her careful training and her ability to interpret sound through physical awareness.
