The Healing Power of Music
音乐的治愈力量
When I was about 4 years old or so, I was sitting around playing with some toys on the floor and my aunt decided to put some of those giant, old school headphones around my ears so that I could listen to classical music for the first time. Regardless, my first experience with classical music was magical.
在我四岁左右的时候,我正坐在地上玩玩具,我的姑姑决定给我戴上一副超大的老式耳机,那是我第一次听到古典音乐。不管怎样,我对古典音乐的初体验是神奇的。
sit around 闲坐着
old school 古老的
regardless adv 不管怎样;无论如何
As soon as she put those headphones on, I stopped everything I was doing and stared blankly out into the Universe, mystified (迷惑) by what was going on between my ears.
她一给我戴上耳机,我就停下手头的一切,双眼放空,仿佛望向宇宙,迷失在双耳间的世界里。
blankly adv 茫然地;木然地(blank+ -ly)
Thanks to my loving aunt I experienced an early immersion (沉浸) in classical music that set up my life path. I believe that her decision to put those headphones on was a pivotal (关键性的) point that created my life path today.
多亏了我敬爱的姑姑,我早早地就沉浸在古典音乐之中,这为我的人生道路奠定了基础。我相信她给我戴上耳机的决定是造就我如今人生道路的转折点。
I started taking piano lessons and composing my first piece of music around the age of 9. By the time I was in high school and college I was in a band with my best friends playing and recording music and it had become a huge part of my life and identity.
我9岁左右开始上钢琴课,并创作我的第一首乐曲。在我读高中和大学期间,我加入了一个乐队,和我最好的朋友们一起弹奏和录制歌曲,这已经成为我生活和身份的重要组成部分。
compose v [课标新增词] 创作(乐曲、诗歌等)
None of this, though, would have much story value without some complications.In college I started ballroom dancing and, as all of us in the band began to pursue our individual life paths it seemed that the once budding (崭露头角的) flower of music that had flourished (茁壮成长) between us began to wilt (枯萎) and disappear.
然而,如果没有一些曲折,这些只是微不足道的故事而已。上大学时,我开始跳交际舞,而且乐队里的所有人都开始追求各自的人生之路,曾经在我们之间绽放的音乐之花似乎开始枯萎和消逝。

ballroom dancing 交际舞;交谊舞
pursue v [课标新增词][学术词] 追求
individual adj [课标新增词][学术词] 单独的;个人的(in-不+divide + -ual,不可分割的)

From that first time my aunt put those headphones on, through playing and composing music as a teenager and young adult, to learning to dance and do shows to different kinds of music expressing my story and emotions, to going to festivals and huge experiences, to now playing again and creating that experience for others — music had played a vital role in my life as a way to let go, express, become vulnerable, visualize the future and what I want, meditate (谋划), empower myself and, ultimately, heal.
