艾莉亚娜•李(暂译)(译注1)的梦想是在大学中学习钢琴演奏,尽管她的手指几乎够不到八度音阶的距离,无法完整弹奏许多浪漫主义时期作曲家的作品,以及一些贝多芬与勃拉姆斯的作品,但她还是想尝试,坚持花好几个小时练习萧邦的一首以“大跨距”著称的协奏曲,结果弄伤了自己。
Eliana Yi dreamed of pursuing piano performance in college,never mind that her fingers could barely reach the length of an octave.Unable to fully play many works by Rom antic-eracomposers,including Beethoven and Brahms,she tried any way-and in her determination to spend hours practicing one notoriously“stretchy”Chopin concerto,wound up injuring herself.
