I don't know a lot of things about this movie...new, old, in wide release, and whether everybody's already seen it...but...

I just saw this, a documentary called Touch the Sound about the deaf, world-class percussionist Evelyn Glennie. If it's a bit into itself, it's a fascinating look at how music affects our everyday life, and the connection between everyday sounds and the music that is always lurking within them to the creative mind. If you live in NYC, it's showing this week at the IFC Center downtown, otherwise I'm not much help. Definitely worth seeing for any musician...gave me a lot to think about.

P.S. When I went to go practice today, some of the musical ideas had really sunken in, it improved my playing a lot. But I guess nobody wants to respond, all to busy doing <sigh> word-association threads...
