Among the many events lined up for 2015, the year Evelyn Glennie celebrates her 50th birthday, is the launch of her revamped website. The new and improved evelyn.co.uk is more comprehensive than its predecessor, compiling everything there is to know about Evelyn’s past, present and future. Evelyn’s shop is now easier to navigate, her discography more comprehensive, biographical and contact details are easier to find and the whole site is more user-friendly. If you’re the type that loves archival information, we’ve brought it all together in one place for you. We hope it’s a place you enjoy visiting.
But who better than Evelyn herself to let you know what’s new and to guide you round? Here’s what she has to say:
Welcome to my new website! Here you can find almost everything there is to know about me and my career. You can always find your way around using the menu at the top of the screen. If you’re looking to find out more about what I do and where I’m going, head over to the about section. There you’ll find my biography, an up-to-date tour diary, a photo gallery, a description of the work I do, and more besides.
Why not take home a little of the Evelyn Glennie spirit by heading over to my newly streamlined online shop? We have some fantastic gifts for musicians and non-musicians alike, including my own range of designer jewellery.
If you’re looking for historical information we’ve compiled an ever-expanding archive, rich with information. There you can discover who I’ve worked with, the music I’ve commissioned, a detailed discography, videography and so much more!
I’m lucky enough to have experienced some amazing things during my career, some of them invigorating and some deeply moving. I regularly share my experiences on my blog and through essays, which you can always catch up with here at evelyn.co.uk.
Perhaps you have something you want to invite me to. Don’t worry if you’re not a big-name promoter, my team will happily talk to you about any proposal. If, however, you are a journalist, promoter or other industry professional, we have a page designed especially for you. There you’ll find quick links to the information that’s most relevant to you, plus contact details for my team so you can get in touch with the right person without any fuss.
Finally, we’ve included our company mission statement so you can see exactly what drives me and my team. Our mission is something we’re all proud of and very excited about. I’m certain it will excite other people too!
Thanks again for visiting! I hope you enjoy your time browsing our pages.
