1
I couldn't possibly recognize that it was going to be as important a moment as it’s become.
2
But I knew that nothing else along my life’s journey had affected me in that way.
3
And that was it— I heard the lap steel guitar and there was no turning back.
4
Hey, you! Yes, you.
5
What’s that light inside of you? Is it a dream? A beat?
6
A beautiful sound? A heartbreaking song?
7
Whatever it is, we’re here with working musicians to help you grow and share that gift with this wild and wonderful world.
8
The guitar. First of all, it's something that you can carry around with you.
9
I really, really love that about it, because I had a lot of feelings about not belonging and trying to find my place in the world.
10
So having the guitar as this very travelable companion made a lot of sense to me.
11
It accompanies the voice so well.
12
So for me it was about the songwriting.
13
It was about the singing and the guitar was just the vehicle to do that.
14
So, I don’t think the clarinet would have worked for me.
15
I started on, when everybody starts their instrument in the 5th grade, I played the clarinet.
16
I loved playing music with other people, played the flute for a little while, and then eventually moved on to the alto saxophone.
17
I think I just wanted to try them all.
18
But finally I wanted to be in a symphony orchestra.
19
So I had heard of the oboe.
20
I didn't know anybody that played it.
21
I went on YouTube and just watched video after video and player after player of this interesting instrument.
22
I mean, the rest is history— I loved it.
23
I am obviously an oboist and I've been playing for probably 14 years now.
24
I heard the lap steel played when I was very young, and it was the sound that pulled me in in a way that was a mystery that to this day I’ve been in pursuit of.
25
It's always difficult to put words to what and why an instrument pulls you in, that mystery is part of what makes it special to the person playing that instrument.
26
I have very clear memories of music finding me.
27
And I think as a as a child I was maybe I was struggling sometimes and I needed to escape.
28
And I had this shelter, which was music.
29
Over the years— so as a very young child, I played different instruments.
30
I end up playing guitar and then bass, and for me it works really well with my personality.
31
Bass is more about sort of a combination of rhythm and harmony.
32
You have to love groove, and you have to sort of appreciate the power of repeating a bassline basically.
33
I always loved meditating, and I think from early age I found playing bass somewhat like a meditation.
34
First answer, real honest: I chose the piano because this girl I had a crush on in 3rd grade played piano.
35
So I was like, oh shoot, let’s go!
36
I also fell in love with the piano, so that worked out well.
37
I was 8 or 9 when I started playing piano.
38
I was 13 when I started telling people I was going to be a songwriter for a living.
39
And it never really stopped from there.
40
I played alto saxophone for probably 10 years because I love jazz.
41
There's a part of me that had to realize you only have a certain amount of hours in a day, and if you're going to play something and play it to a professional level, you gotta triage, right?
42
So saxophone was awesome and I love it, but it just wasn't doing it, you know what I mean?
43
I think the piano is a super power instrument because all of music theory is laid out before you once you understand the piano.
44
Now, I also play guitar. It’s not as linear.
45
I can bring theory structure to the guitar because I understand it on piano first.
46
I will give credit to one of my first piano teachers.
47
Her name is Florence.
48
I would bring her a song and I'd say, I want to learn this song.
49
And she'd say, okay, first try it on your own with your ears, and then come back and I’ll show you what you should adjust.
50
And so I fell in love with the sheer process of realizing that all of these keys in front of me mean something, and if I sat here long enough, I could sound like people that I look up to.
51
Music. I love it.
52
How did I get from a love of music to the drums?
53
I think that there’s an element of patience that’s required in learning music.
54
I think drumming didn't inflame my lack of patience.
55
I had plenty of opportunities to learn piano and I felt disconnected from it.
56
I had plenty of opportunities to learn guitar— I felt totally intimidated by it.
57
Drumming, it seemed to be initially simple enough and also loud enough to where I felt an immediate shock of power and excitement.
58
And I didn’t feel intimidated by the complexities.
59
I felt a balance of gratification and satisfaction that the fact that it gave me that so quickly, it then kind of circumvented my tendency to be impatient and unwilling to learn.
60
I think when you pick an instrument, you shouldn't skip the part where you think, what kind of person am I?
61
Is this going to be a good avenue to express myself?
62
Or am I going to be just frustrated?
63
If you need constant attention and you want to be in the front of the band all the time, try the guitar.
64
I think when you want to make that choice, let's say you want to get into a band or you want to pick an instrument and there’s guitar and there’s bass and you want to decide which one is right for you, you might want to consider the element of rhythm, the sort of ability to move a whole room of people, with playing a bass line.
65
In the beginning, I just wasn't really very passionate about it.
66
Now, I pick up my guitar and I can’t imagine doing anything else.
67
It’s an outlet for me. It’s like my form of self-expression.
68
The same way I love art and photography, music is just another way for me to express myself.
69
There are guitars with nylon strings.
70
There are guitars with steel strings, all different shapes and sizes.
71
Electric, acoustic.
72
Acoustic and electric guitar.
73
They feel so different and you definitely do have to cater your playing style to it.
74
And I actually find that playing acoustic transfers over to electric better than playing electric transfers over to an acoustic guitar.
75
Yeah, it’s an exciting venture, the guitar.
76
I mean, every time I pick it up, I’m learning something.
77
I’m still learning new things every day and trying to improve myself.
78
It’s the connection. Music is a language.
79
It's a way to connect.
80
When you go to see shows, see what moves you.
81
If something touches you, you probably have something within yourself that is similar.
82
So what's your thing?
83
You probably have your own special thing to to bring as a performer.
84
Sometimes it’s an energy thing, like you open doors and the right thing will find you.

为什么要通过这个视频练习口语？
在这个视频中，演讲者分享了他们与乐器的个人故事，这让我们更好地理解音乐与情感之间的联系。通过跟随这些真实的体验，学习者能够提高自己的口语表达能力，培养对音乐和声音的敏感性。这种上下文中真实的对话氛围使得英语影子跟读变得更有趣，也能帮助学习者更好地融入语言学习。通过模仿这些声音和情感，学习者可以有效地提升自己的口语能力，尤其是在雅思口语练习方面。
语法与表达在上下文中的运用
在视频中，演讲者使用了几种关键的句型和表达，以展现他们对音乐的热爱和选择乐器的个人经历。以下是一些例子：
- “I heard the lap steel guitar and there was no turning back.” ——这个句型展示了“hear”这个动词在表达深刻体验中的重要性。
- “I don’t think the clarinet would have worked for me.” ——演讲者使用了假设语气，帮助我们理解选择乐器的个体差异。
- “It accompanies the voice so well.” ——这句表达突出了乐器与人声之间的和谐关系。
这样的句型在口语表达中非常常见，掌握它们能帮助学习者在shadow speech中表现得更加流利。
常见发音陷阱
在视频中，有一些单词和短语可能会给学习者带来发音上的挑战。例如：
- “oboe” — 此乐器的名称发音可能会让初学者困惑。需要注意元音的发音。
- “bass” — 这个单词虽拼写相同，但在音乐上下文中发音为/bās/而非/bass/。
通过反复观看视频并练习这些词汇，学习者能够在shadowspeaks中避免常见的发音错误，从而提升自己的口语流利度。
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
