Thank you.
7
who has come to tell us about how he began his career as a musician.
8
Hello.
9
Well, first of all, Gerald, how did your interest in music begin?
10
My father was a violinist in an orchestra, and from an early age, I would go with him when they were rehearsing for concerts.
11
I would sit with the violinists and listen.
12
I learned a lot, and everyone was very kind to me.
13
I actually composed my first piece of music for the violin when I was six years old.
14
My father treasured it.
15
And when did you start playing in public?
16
When I was around eight years old, my father started playing in a small orchestra at a holiday resort in the summer.
17
All the family went with him.
18
It was on the coast, and that way we had a break we couldn't have afforded otherwise.
19
I sometimes went along to performances, and I played in my first concert there at the age of 11, just for fun.
20
My mother also played the piano in a hotel in the evenings.
21
So your mother was a musician too.
22
Tell us about her.
23
Sure.
24
She was an amazing pianist.
25
She knew all the music she played by heart, everything, and that was after playing it through just a couple of times to get it right.
26
I learned that from her and that's what I do on the violin too.
27
Because I don't have to read the notes, I can concentrate on my playing and avoid errors.
28
And what made you interested in conducting?
29
From the very start, conductors fascinated me a great deal.
30
I dreamt of becoming one from the first time I saw an orchestra.
31
When I listened to recordings at home, I would conduct them, but my father insisted that I become a violinist, and he also taught me.
32
So that's what I did, but I never gave up my old dream.
33
You studied music at one of the best colleges.
34
Did you enjoy it?
35
I could do the violin playing anyway, of course, which my father had taught me, but then so could everyone else.
36
And naturally, I perfected my technique at college and broadened the range of music I played.
37
But some of the others found the discipline and commitment required of us too demanding.
38
But because of my upbringing, I was used to that.
39
So what happened when you left college?
40
Well, just when I was about to start a career as a violinist, I started learning to be a conductor, too.
41
Even after college, I needed to carry on improving, so I was having private lessons with a professional violinist.
42
And his wife, although not a professional musician, taught me conducting technique.
43
She insisted that I took lessons from a teacher she knew who had many well-known conductors as students.
44
He himself wasn't a well-known conductor, but as an instructor, he was the best and very enthusiastic.
45
Since then, you've become well-known as both a violinist and a conductor.
46
Has it been difficult to have both these careers?
47
On the contrary, I've learned so much from the conductors I've played with as a violin soloist.
48
Even when one plays the same violin piece often, it's still always different every time.
49
One can therefore learn a great deal, especially as I have had the good fortune to practically always play under the best conductors in the world.
50
And I haven't only learned from seeing and hearing them, but I've always taken the time to consult them, to discuss the smallest details with them,
51
and to continuously improve myself.
52
Well, unfortunately we've run out of time, but thank you very much.
53
It's been a great pleasure speaking to you, and the very best of luck in the future.
54
Thank you.
55
Now you'll hear part four again.
56
We are very pleased to welcome the violinist and conductor, Gerald Harding, who has come to tell us about how he began his career as a musician.

이 비디오로 영어 회화 연습을 하는 이유

이 비디오는 음악가 제럴드 하딩의 인터뷰로, 자연스러운 대화 흐름과 다양한 주제(음악 경력, 가족, 직업 선택 등)를 담고 있어 영어 회화 연습에 최적입니다. 특히 IELTS 스피킹과 같은 실제 의사소통 상황에서 필요한 이야기 전개 능력과 구체적인 사례 설명 능력을 기를 수 있습니다. shadow speak(쉐도잉) 연습을 하면 발음, 리듬, 억양을 자연스럽게 습득할 수 있어 영어 실력이 빠르게 향상됩니다. 일상 대화뿐 아니라 전문적인 주제도 포함되어 있어 어휘력과 표현 다양성을 키우는 데 도움이 됩니다.

문맥 속 문법 & 표현

  • "I would go with him when they were rehearsing..." - "would"는 과거의 습관적인 행동을 표현하며, 회화에서 과거 경험을 이야기할 때 자주 사용됩니다. 예: "When I was young, I would play soccer every weekend."
  • "that's what I do on the violin too" - "that's what..." 구조는 앞서 언급한 내용을 재확인하거나 비교할 때 유용합니다. 영어 회화에서 자신의 경험을 연결할 때 자연스럽게 사용할 수 있습니다.
  • "On the contrary, I've learned so much..." - "On the contrary"는 상대방의 의견을 반박하거나 예상과 다른 사실을 전할 때 사용되는 표현입니다. 논리적인 대화를 이어갈 때 필수적인 문구입니다.

발음의 함정

이 비디오에서 주의해야 할 발음이 몇 가지 있습니다. "violinist"는 [ˌvaɪəˈlɪnɪst]로 발음하며, 중간의 "li" 부분이 약하게 들릴 수 있어 주의가 필요합니다. "rehearsing"는 [rɪˈhɜːrsɪŋ]로, "h"가 강하게 발음되지 않으므로 "rihursing"처럼 들리지 않게 주의하세요. 또한 "conductor"는 [kənˈdʌktər]로, "duc" 부분이 [dʌk]가 아니라 [dʌkt]로 발음됩니다. 영어 발음 교정을 위해 이 단어들을 반복해서 연습하고, 쉐도잉을 통해 자연스러운 발음을 익히세요.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
