Thank you so much and hello everyone.
非常感谢大家，大家好！
I am 18 years old, and I am from Eugene, Oregon.
我今年18岁，来自俄勒冈州的尤金市。
I've been playing the accordion for about
我开始学习演奏手风琴已经有大约……（时间未填写）。
12 years, and it is such a pleasure to be here and to share the beauty and versatility of my instrument with all of you.
十二年过去了，能够在这里与大家分享我的乐器的美丽与多功能性，真是一件令人愉快的事情。
Recently, I had the privilege of performing for NPR's Tiny Desk Concerts.
最近，我有幸为美国国家公共电台（NPR）的“Tiny Desk Concerts”节目进行表演。
Thank you.
谢谢。
And there, I performed the piece that I have just played for you, called "The Prelude and Fugue" by one of my favorite classical composers,
就在那里，我演奏了刚才给大家听的那首曲子——《前奏与赋格》。这首曲子出自我最喜爱的古典作曲家之一之手。
Johann Sebastian Bach.
约翰·塞巴斯蒂安·巴赫。
Now I love playing music in many different styles, from Bach to
现在，我喜欢演奏各种风格的音乐，从巴赫的作品到其他各种风格的乐曲都包括在内。
Beatles to AC/DC -- especially in a duet with my father.
从披头士乐队到AC/DC乐队——尤其是他们与我父亲共同表演的那些歌曲。
He is my teacher and a professional accordion player himself.
他既是我的老师，也是一位专业的手风琴演奏家。
Now before I play my final piece for you, I'd like to briefly familiarize you with this instrument.
在我为您演奏最后一段乐曲之前，我想先简要地向您介绍一下这种乐器。
So this is a professional model of a B-system, chromatic button accordion, which has 120 buttons on the left side
这是一款专业的 B 型按键手风琴（属于“彩色按键手风琴”系列），其左侧共有 120 个按键。
and only 106 on the right side.
右侧只有 106 个。
Not that many.
并不多。
There are also registers over here, which I use to change the tone of the sound, so I can imitate other instruments such as the bassoon,
这里还有一些控制器（或调节装置），我用它们来改变声音的音色，从而能够模仿其他乐器（比如巴松管）的音效。
the piccolo, the organ and so on.
短笛、管风琴等等。
And they are also duplicated up here.
它们在这里也被复制了一份。
And these are called chin switches, which, as you can guess, I can operate using my chin, like this.
这些装置被称为“下巴开关”（chin switches）；顾名思义，我可以通过下巴来控制它们的开关状态，就像这样操作。
And additionally, this middle part here, which I constantly push and pull, is called the bellows.
此外，这里的中间部分（我一直对其进行拉伸或压缩的操作）被称为“风箱”（bellows）。
And the bellows act as the lungs of the accordion since they pump air in and out and control the dynamics.
风箱相当于手风琴的“肺”，负责将空气吸入和排出，并调节音量的强弱（即音乐的动态变化）。
Now considering this instrument weighs about 35 pounds, I would say it's a bit of a workout, as well as an intense brain exercise to handle.
考虑到这种乐器的重量约为 35 磅，我认为操作它不仅需要耗费一定的体力，还需要进行大量的脑力活动（即需要理解其工作原理并学会如何正确使用它）。
And you may be wondering why I chose to play such a unique instrument.
你可能会好奇，为什么我选择演奏这样一种独特的乐器。
Well when I was little, we actually
嗯，我小时候，我们确实……
had this tiny little accordion in our living room, and one day I just came up to my dad and said,
我们客厅里有一把小小的手风琴。有一天，我走到爸爸跟前，对他说……
"Hey, can you teach me how to play this?"
嘿，你能教我怎么玩这个吗？
So I started off by learning a few chords and simple melodies, and I just fell in love with the instrument,
所以我首先学习了一些和弦和简单的旋律，然后就彻底爱上了这种乐器。
even though the first-ever accordion I played didn't even have all the notes.
尽管我第一次演奏的手风琴甚至没有所有的音符……
So I would say that having a teacher at home living with me also helped me progress pretty quickly,
因此我想说，有一位老师和我一起住在家里，这也帮助我取得了相当快的进步。
which has brought me to where I am today.
正是这些经历让我走到了今天的位置。
And now I would like to play for you "Moments Musicaux" by composer Franz Schubert.
现在，我想为大家演奏作曲家弗朗茨·舒伯特的作品《Moments Musicaux》。
