Jonathan Sacks

Family, Society, Past

Guilty, Himself, Felt

And as I grew older, I then auditioned for the Royal Academy of Music in London, and they said, well, no, we won't accept you, because we haven't a clue - you know - of the future of a so-called 'deaf' musician. And I just couldn't quite accept that.
Evelyn Glennie

Music, Future, Said
