Şimdi, size bir hikaye anlatacağım.
00:33
When I arrived off the plane,
2
8000
3000
İngiltere'nin batısında başlayan
00:36
after a very long journey from the West of England,
3
11000
3000
oldukça uzun bir yolculuktan sonra uçaktan indiğimde
00:39
my computer, my beloved laptop,
4
14000
3000
bilgisayarım, sevgili dizüstü bilgisayarım,
00:42
had gone mad,
5
17000
3000
kafayı yemişti,
00:45
and had -- oh! -- a bit like that! --
6
20000
3000
ve ah! - işte buna benzeyen birşey-
00:48
and the display on it --
7
23000
3000
ve ekranı -
00:51
anyway, the whole thing had burst.
8
26000
3000
her neyse, herşey uçmuştu.
00:54
And I went to the IT guys here
9
29000
4000
Sonra buradaki Bilgi İşlem elemanlarına gittim
00:58
and a gentleman mended my computer,
10
33000
4000
ve bir beyefendi bilgisayarımı tamir etti,
01:02
and then he said, "What are you doing here?"
11
37000
3000
ve "Burada ne yapacaksın?" diye sordu,
01:05
and I said "I'm playing the cello and I'm doing a bit of singing,"
12
40000
3000
ben de "Çello çalıyorum ve biraz da şarkı söylüyorum," dedim,
01:08
and he said, "Oh, I sort of play the cello as well."
13
43000
3000
ve o, "Aa, ben de biraz çello çalıyorum" dedi."
01:11
And I said, "Do you really?"
14
46000
3000
Ve ben, "Gerçekten mi?" dedim.
01:14
Anyway, so you're in for a treat,
15
49000
2000
Her neyse, yani sizler bu gösteriyi izleyebiliyorsunuz,
01:16
because he's fantastic, and his name's Mark.
16
51000
2000
çünkü o harika, ve onun ismi Mark.
01:18

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Caroline Lavelle - Cellist; singer-songwriterEqually talented on cello and vocals, Caroline Lavelle has created a performance style all her own. Her expansive talents, channeling the best of both classical and contemporary influences, have earned her comparisons to both Kate Bush and Jacqueline du Pré.
Why you should listen
Connecting the best of British chamber folk and folk rock to modern electronic music, Caroline Lavelle is frequently sought out for both her vocals and her cello playing. The genre-bridging cellist has collaborated with the likes of Peter Gabriel, Laurie Anderson, Radiohead, the Cranberries, BT, Massive Attack and William Orbit, among others (she reportedly inspired Madonna to pursue her own successful collaboration with Orbit).
In her TED performance of "Further than the Sun," Lavelle plays the cello like a sorceress casting a spell, occasionally hiding behind her wild mane of blond hair as she sings of pastoral themes. She's produced three solo albums -- A Distant Bell (2004), Brilliant Midnight (2001) and Spirit (1995) -- and is a touring member of the Chieftains.
