00:00:05.270 --> 00:00:07.158
Hi! I'm Lizzy!

00:00:07.158 --> 00:00:11.098
And I've been playing violin
since I was about 3 years old.

00:00:11.098 --> 00:00:13.434
This is Jeffrey 
and he's been playing violin

00:00:13.434 --> 00:00:15.439
since he was about 6.

00:00:15.439 --> 00:00:20.148
So, I would say that we both 
have a love of violin,

00:00:20.148 --> 00:00:23.806
and that love has been fed 
by our dedication,

00:00:23.806 --> 00:00:27.305
and we've had to practice 
about one to three hours a day

00:00:27.305 --> 00:00:28.653
for all these years,

00:00:28.653 --> 00:00:30.499
and I'd say 
that that's taught me

00:00:30.499 --> 00:00:35.060
a lot about self-motivation 
and perseverance.

00:00:35.060 --> 00:00:38.196
But, most importantly, it's taught me
to teach myself

00:00:38.196 --> 00:00:40.969
because, when I'm practising,
there's no one in the room with me

00:00:40.969 --> 00:00:42.920
saying, "You're doing this wrong",

00:00:42.920 --> 00:00:44.926
"You need to do this differently."

00:00:44.926 --> 00:00:49.629
I only see a teacher once a week, 
so it's mostly me figuring out for myself.

00:00:49.629 --> 00:00:51.575
Anyway, the piece 
that we'll be playing today

00:00:51.575 --> 00:00:53.368
is called "Navarra".

00:00:53.368 --> 00:00:56.532
It shares a name 
with a Spanish province,

00:00:56.532 --> 00:00:59.088
but it's not a very well-known piece.

00:00:59.088 --> 00:01:04.116
However, the composer is very well-known, 
his name is Pablo de Sarasate,

00:01:04.116 --> 00:01:10.216
and he was a very famous 
Spanish violonist and composer.

00:01:10.216 --> 00:01:15.020
This piece features very virtuousic
and difficult violin work

00:01:15.020 --> 00:01:18.881
and [works] with the piano 
as harmonic and rhythmic backup.

00:01:18.881 --> 00:01:22.188
Without further ado
we'll play "Navarra".

00:01:39.610 --> 00:01:43.460
(Piano and violin music)

00:07:57.070 --> 00:08:00.041
