0:00:05.270,0:00:07.158 Hi! I'm Lizzy! 0:00:07.158,0:00:11.098 And I've been playing violin[br]since I was about 3 years old. 0:00:11.098,0:00:13.434 This is Jeffrey [br]and he's been playing violin 0:00:13.434,0:00:15.439 since he was about 6. 0:00:15.439,0:00:20.148 So, I would say that we both [br]have a love of violin, 0:00:20.148,0:00:23.806 and that love has been fed [br]by our dedication, 0:00:23.806,0:00:27.305 and we've had to practice [br]about one to three hours a day 0:00:27.305,0:00:28.653 for all these years, 0:00:28.653,0:00:30.499 and I'd say [br]that that's taught me 0:00:30.499,0:00:35.060 a lot about self-motivation [br]and perseverance. 0:00:35.060,0:00:38.196 But, most importantly, it's taught me[br]to teach myself 0:00:38.196,0:00:40.969 because, when I'm practising,[br]there's no one in the room with me 0:00:40.969,0:00:42.920 saying, "You're doing this wrong", 0:00:42.920,0:00:44.926 "You need to do this differently." 0:00:44.926,0:00:49.629 I only see a teacher once a week, [br]so it's mostly me figuring out for myself. 0:00:49.629,0:00:51.575 Anyway, the piece [br]that we'll be playing today 0:00:51.575,0:00:53.368 is called "Nevada". 0:00:53.368,0:00:56.532 It shares a name [br]with a Spanish province, 0:00:56.532,0:00:59.088 but it's not a very well-known piece. 0:00:59.088,0:01:04.116 However, the composer is very well-known, [br]his name is Pablo de Sarasate, 0:01:04.116,0:01:10.216 and he was a very famous [br]Spanish violonist and composer. 0:01:10.216,0:01:15.020 This piece features very virtuousic[br]and difficult violin work 0:01:15.020,0:01:18.881 and [works] with the piano [br]as harmonic and rhythmic backup. 0:01:18.881,0:01:22.188 Without further ado[br]we'll play "Nevada". 0:01:39.610,0:01:43.460 (Piano and violin music) 0:07:57.070,0:08:00.041 (Applause)
