1
Recording 4 Good morning, and welcome to today's talk on famous composers.
2
Today we're going to look at the remarkable career of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
3
Mozart was born in Salzburg on January 27, 1756, the last of seven children.
4
However, when Mozart was born, five of his siblings had already died in infancy or early childhood.
5
His only surviving sibling was his sister, Nannerl, who was five years older.
6
Mozart's father, Leopold, was a composer, and his grandfather had also been a musician.
7
Times were hard, and the family had been struggling for some time.
8
When she was eight, Nannerl began keyboard lessons with her father.
9
Mozart's sister was extremely gifted at the keyboard, and she had been making excellent progress when her brother,
10
then aged three, demanded to be taught as well.
11
In just thirty minutes, Mozart mastered the piece of music, which his father had copied into Nannerl's notebook.
12
Wolfgang's achievement was followed in rapid succession by others.
13
By the time he was six, the little boy had written a composition of his own into the notebook,
14
and by age seven he had taught himself how to play the violin without ever having received a lesson.
15
When Leopold Mozart saw how extraordinary his son was,
16
he decided not to waste Wolfgang's precocious talents and took him on a tour across Europe with his sister.
17
At Linz, Wolfgang gave his first public concert.
18
Among the audience were some important statesmen who were astonished
19
and hurried on to Vienna to spread sensational reports of what they had seen.
20
By the time he was seventeen, Mozart's reputation had already begun to spread through Europe, and his family were richer than they had ever been before.

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
