Čelistica Maya Beiser svira prekrasnu modernu etidu od osam dijelova sa sedam replika sebe i glatko prelazi u hibrid meditativne glazbe/videa -- koristeći tehnologiju kako bi stvorila beskrajne mogućnosti za transformativni zvuk. Glazba je "Kontrapunkt čela" Stevea Reicha, s videom Billa Morrisona, a zatim "Svijet koji dolazi" Davida Langa s videom Irita Batsrya.

Imagining a solo cello concert,
3
434000
3000
Zamišljajući solistički čelo koncert,
07:32
one would most likely think of Johann Sebastian Bach
4
437000
3000
osoba bi vrlo vjerojatno pomislila na čelističke kompozicije
07:35
unaccompanied cello suites.
5
440000
3000
bez pratnje Johanna Sebastiana Bacha.
07:38
As a child
6
443000
2000
Kao dijete
07:40
studying these eternal masterpieces,
7
445000
3000
proučavajući ta vječna remek djela,
07:43
Bach's music would intermingle
8
448000
2000
Bachova glazba bi se miješala
07:45
with the singing voices of Muslim prayers
9
450000
3000
s pjevnim glasovima muslimanskih molitvi
07:48
from the neighboring Arab village
10
453000
2000
iz susjednog arapskog sela
07:50
of the northern Kibbutz in Israel
11
455000
2000
sjevernog kibuca u Izraelu
07:52
where I grew up.
12
457000
2000
gdje sam odrasla.
07:54
Late at night, after hours of practicing,
13
459000
2000
Kasno u noći, nakon sati vježbanja,
07:56
I would listen to Janis Joplin and Billie Holiday
14
461000
3000
slušala bih Janice Joplin i Billie Holiday
07:59
as the sounds of tango music
15
464000
2000
dok bi zvukovi tango glazbe
08:01
would be creeping from my parents' stereo.
16
466000
3000
dopirali iz radio prijamnika mojih roditelja.
08:04
It all became music to me.
17
469000
3000
Sve je to postala glazba za mene.
08:07
I didn't hear the boundaries.
18
472000
3000
Nisam čula granice.
08:10
I still start every day
19
475000
2000
Još uvijek počinjem svaki dan
08:12
practicing playing Bach.
20
477000
2000
vježbanjem sviranja Bacha.
08:14
His music never ceases
21
479000
2000
Njegova glazba mi nikada ne prestaje
08:16
to sound fresh and surprising to me.
22
481000
2000
zvučati svježe i iznenađujuće.
08:18
But as I was moving away
23
483000
2000
Ali kako sam se odmicala od
08:20
from the traditional classical repertoire
24
485000
2000
tradicionalnog klasičnog repertoara
08:22
and trying to find new ways
25
487000
2000
i pokušala pronaći nove načine
08:24
of musical expression,
26
489000
2000
glazbene ekspresije,
08:26
I realized that with today's technological resources,
27
491000
3000
shvatila sam kako s današnjim tehnološkim resursima,
08:29
there's no reason to limit
28
494000
2000
nema razloga ograničiti
08:31
what can be produced at one time
29
496000
3000
ono što može biti proizvedeno odjednom
08:34
from a single string instrument.
30
499000
2000
jednim žičanim instrumentom.
08:36
The power and coherency
31
501000
2000
Moć i povezanost
08:38
that comes from one person hearing, perceiving and playing all the voices
32
503000
4000
koja dolazi od osobe koja sluša, prima i svira sve te glasove
08:42
makes a very different experience.
33
507000
3000
čini veoma drugačije iskustvo.
08:45
The excitement of a great orchestra performance
34
510000
3000
Uzbuđenje izvedbom velikog orkestra
08:48
comes from the attempt to have a collective of musicians
35
513000
3000
dolazi od pokušaja imanja kolektivnih glazbenika
08:51
producing one unified whole concept.
36
516000
3000
koji proizvode jedan ujedinjeni cijeli koncept.
08:54
The excitement from using multi-tracking,
37
519000
3000
Uzbuđenje zbog korištenja više pratnji,
08:57
the way I did in the piece you will hear next,
38
522000
4000
kao što sam i ja koristila u djelu koje ćete iduće čuti,
09:01
comes from the attempt
39
526000
2000
dolazi iz pokušaja
09:03
to build and create a whole universe
40
528000
3000
gradnje i stvaranja cijelog svemira
09:06
with many diverse layers,
41
531000
3000
pomoću mnogo različitih slojeva,
09:09
all generated from a single source.
42
534000
3000
svi koji proizlaze iz jednog izvora.
09:12
My cello and my voice are layered
43
537000
2000
Moj čelo i moj glas su slojeviti
09:14
to create this large sonic canvas.
44
539000
3000
kako bi stvorili to veliko sonično platno.
09:17
When composers write music for me,
45
542000
3000
Kada skladatelji pišu glazbu za mene,
09:20
I ask them to forget what they know about the cello.
46
545000
2000
zamolim ih da zaborave ono što znaju o čelu.
09:22
I hope to arrive at new territories
47
547000
3000
Nadam se kako ću doći do novih teritorija
09:25
to discover sounds I have never heard before.
48
550000
3000
gdje ću otkriti zvukove koje još nikada prije nisam čula.
09:28
I want to create endless possibilities
49
553000
2000
Želim stvoriti beskrajne mogućnosti
09:30
with this cello.
50
555000
2000
s tim čelom.
09:32
I become the medium through which the music is being channeled,
51
557000
3000
Ja postajem medij kroz koji je glazba usmjerena
09:35
and in the process, when all is right,
52
560000
3000
i u procesu, kada je sve u redu,
09:38
the music is transformed
53
563000
2000
glazba je transformirana
09:40
and so am I.
54
565000
2000
baš kao i ja.
