Chapter 6 The Song
2
In the morning, Ludmilla talked in Russian on her mobile phone for more than an hour, crying all the time.
3
What's this all about?
4
Dr. Sansom asked Avril.
5
I don't know, said Avril.
6
I think she's talking to her father in St. Petersburg.
7
We need to know her story before we can help her.
8
When is the interpreter coming?
9
At eleven o'clock.
10
When she had a moment, Avril went to see the piano man and to sit with him for a time.
11
He was nearly always in the patient sitting room.
12
He sat at the piano, sometimes playing, sometimes just sitting.
13
When Avril talked to him, he listened but did not speak.
14
His hands moved gently over the piano keys.
15
He answered her with music.
16
Other patients went in and out of the sitting room, but Doris was always there, in her usual chair there.
17
Beautiful music, she said to Avril.
18
Beautiful music.
19
Yes, it is, said Avril.
20
Does he talk to you, Doris?
21
He's a nice boy, Doris said.
22
Beautiful music.
23
Very nice, Avril said.
24
But does he say anything?
25
Do you know his name?
26
Yes, Doris said happily.
27
He's the piano man.
28
He plays music.
29
Beautiful music.
30
Avril went away, back to her other patients.
31
In Ludmilla's room, it was quiet.
32
Ludmilla lay on her bed and stared out of the window at the sky.
33
Avril brought her a hot mug of tea.
34
Would you like some tea?
35
She said in her warm Irish voice.
36
Thirsty work, all that talking.
37
Ludmilla sat up and took the tea.
38
Thank you.
39
Did you talk to your father in St. Petersburg?
40
Avril asked.
41
Behind her, the door of the room was open, and sounds from the hospital came in.
42
Suddenly, Ludmilla turned her head, and some of the hot tea went over the bed.
43
Hey, be careful, said Avril.
44
But Ludmilla did not hear her.
45
She sat very still.
46
What's that?
47
She whispered.
48
What's what?
49
Avril asked. That, that music.
50
Ludmilla said.
51
Where's it coming from?
52
It's a patient.
53
He's playing the piano in the sitting room, Avril said.
54
I think he's- Shh.
55
Listen, Ludmilla whispered.
56
She put her hand on Avril's arm.
57
Listen.
58
A second later, she was out of the bed and running.
59
She ran out of her room, past the other rooms, and along to the patient sitting room at the end.
60
Avril ran after her.
61
Wait, she called.
62
At the sitting room door, Ludmilla stopped.
63
She saw the piano man at the piano, and her face turned white.
64
She stood and stared.
65
The piano man heard something and turned round.
66
He stopped playing and stared at the girl by the door.
67
For a long, long minute, nobody moved, nobody spoke.
68
Every sound in the hospital stopped.
69
Then, very slowly, the piano man turned back to the piano and began to play.
70
He played a slow, beautiful piece of music.
71
For a second or two, Ludmilla did not move or speak.
72
Then she put her head back, closed her eyes, and began to sing.
73
The song was very sad and very beautiful.
74
Avril did not understand the words because they were in Russian, but tears came into her eyes.
75
The piano man played and Ludmilla sang.
76
Then, at the end of the song, she walked across the room to him.
77
The piano man stood up and watched her.
78
She came and stood in front of him, and very slowly, very gently, she held out her hand to him.
79
Mikael?
80
She whispered.
81
Lita, Lita, Lita, said the piano man.
82
Oh, Lita.
83
Then he put his arms around her and held her for a long time.
84
Thank you.
85
Thank you.
86
Thank you.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
