and all the rest of the classify as disgusting, w series about our complex relationship with animals. the great debate, what you know, on youtube, dw documentary, the driven by passion percussion is to the bus the labor and her energetic performance is made with love the rear and elaborately produce the past as to feeling due from virginia and done by desire germans and their love of cycling. these stories and more coming up on your own mac, the libby bus and leave us passion is percussion. to professional musician discovered

her love of drumming on a beach in bulgaria as a child. and since then has dedicated her life to music. we caught up with her as a solar performance in vienna. the . this is one of germany's rising stars in the classical music world, german, mo, gary and percussionist vos to leave us for me, life and very, very big energy that brings the most intense emotions from inside of us. already and her young age, she's reached the pinnacle of her career. she performs around the world as a soloist. here in vienna's concert house, she's rehearsing for a piece for percussion by austrian composer friedrich sir. in the beginning, it was challenging for me to find the connection to this music because it's very,

very intense and quite aggressive. also, my 1st impression was because of some kind of must clean energy. must calling aggressiveness that, that i don't really feel how, how i was spend on the stage and, and interpret this music with all this convincing and depression and every conductor martin also appears performing this piece for the 1st time with her. you've been testing the experience to conduct with the the s o s i see. so energized and dramatic can into the music. so it's a matter of trying to get everybody in that same zone. it's really fun, city of us and leave a, comes from a musical family. her father taught her and her siblings to play violin for her. another profession is unimaginable. it's what i always wanted, and i always worked for this and it's just

a dream come true. now that i can play with the most wonderful artist through the most wonderful conductors, and this really amazing pieces that there were only some 10 percent of the classical percussionists are female, including one of her role models whose paid the way for her career. the 1st percussion soloist was a woman for the 1st person who went in front of the orchestra and was evelyn glennie. she's still premier im works and yeah, she was the door opener back in the concert hall, the doors are beginning to open for tonight's concert. i practice every day. musicians have actually no holidays and i practiced all day probably to up to 10 hours. playing percussion definitely keeps me in shape each probably 3 times more than all my friends around me. and i still can't get

enough it's. we use our whole body when we play for a movie, practice is up until the audience takes their seats. a career highlight occurred in 2023 when she received the prestigious leonard bernstein toward worth 10000 years money. she's already spent on some of the instruments used in tonight's performance . the yes fantastic. in the audience reaction, you can feel it was on fire and she's such a not just a wonderful percussionist, but such a performer was amazing. it's when you're in the flow and yours is loving every, every moment and, and you feel, now's the time you had the rehearsals and foot in the concert to you always give

like 50 percent more and yeah, it was, it was amazing. was, is very intense. and what does the future hold? i have a lot to finance of for new pieces, which is composers for different different projects like for of course, for orchestral, a lot the new works are waiting for us in the future and nice concepts and products . with that confidence, dressing leaves is showing the world how she marches to the beach of her own drum. the you think you know about every type of cost out there? well, we've discovered another you probably haven't heard of yet. you won't find these noodles in any supermarket in the world. they're called

a suit pending day. the threats of god. these noodles are sacred, aka. what makes them special is that very few people can make them. why is that your lead time is up to you? and so it takes a lot of patience and will power to learn it. well, if you want it done, if you think you can learn this here in a snapshot and then master the technique to all done that, it'd be, you'd better not come up and doing practice when do the menu on. but there's just one city where these noodles are made up in the mountains on the italian island of sardinia in the mediterranean. here 2 families guard the secret of this costa. but one man is willing to show us how to prepare it. child welcome. i'm lucca, florida is video. i'll show you how to make soup and in day or is it the ingredients that make it so special?

water, salt, semolina, they're pretty simple actually. however, the 20 thought that the 1st law you have to do a lot of testing. you need the right proportions, maybe i t should i say more lot say, and you have to understand how the symbol lean, that reacts to the humidity or heat. i've gotten the ceiling cup of because it can absorb a lot of water or released. so again, i don't know if this depending on the temperature is the fit to be the last shot. the video is worked by hand not using a machine while needing it. luka can feel if it has the right consistency and the last specific there's more to take into consideration. the question and i think we this is the phase. when many people make a mistake, if they think the doe is done now. but k adept the best that's, you know, if i could, but it has to be really smooth and keep getting needed. so there was

a lot of the cavities when he gets a lot of work. it's quite tough. dump a lot. you can see within your elbows to go into the policy the next step. now we lift the dose, then for a while and then a few hours. it's ready. next comes the real challenge. how many strings can look a pull from this role? what's the job? one? okay. what now to last 4 of 816, then 32642128. 200. 56, c. a number of threads doubles each time. a wicker wheel is used to drive the cost of threads. it takes a long time to learn the technique and there's some extra challenge to it. we're going to see that you have to do the beginning in the end as fast as possible. because while i'm still working, the sto here, it's already starting to dry seal and you can't stick fresh dough to dry though. so

like i said, won't hold and shut back on the 3 layers of threads form a sort of match at the end. the, it's shortly looks impressive, but how are you suppose to eat these noodles? any way the yeah, the during the course of in full temperatures, it takes a few days for it all to dry. here i have dried. yeah, soup in a day you i made a few days ago and i'm bringing it up now. it will probably get into a new file and get more specific time to watch. after all, that careful crafting. it's simply broken apart from faxes. that's part of the art that we have to break it into pieces so we can eat at 50 breakfast that look for you. but this pasta isn't served on just any ordinary day in sardinia.

not fast. the constant is a good time and dedicated to st. francis, when we celebrate and twice a year in water, a mission all yet. so. oh, no one makes it on a different day. lockbox that is just pasta is linked to our religion and spirituality really joined their religion. but how does this specialty actually taste in the end? and how's it served? it gets cooked for a few minutes and this mutton brought before lots of sardinian cheeses, added pecorino. so in the end, it's a sort of noodles to of the, for the it has a strong taste and from the mutton brought to what you can feel so much of work has gone into a spend that makes it even better. my mother always said you should enjoy. so for the day, like any other meal, with respect in doing what are the few anyone who wants to try soothing day with

themselves needs a lot of luck. you can't buy these special noodles and stores not even in sardinia . just one more reason this sardine and specialty is so extraordinary. when it comes to banking, germany is way ahead of other countries. but dw reporter shop none. so they didn't know how to write a bike when she moved here from india 7 years ago. it wasn't long, however, before she took up the challenge. are you even doing that? if you don't know how to write it by claiming when it comes to this new episode of me the to mr day when talk about the germans on back, which may or may not thank you for watching to find out before moving to germany, i had no idea how important cycling was to tell me and don't blame me because everyone always told me that germany is the ultimate land of cars. rachel clause is

still very true, but the number is that the visual many has their own 60000000 registered motivation . right. as they are 83000000 bytes here, which means statistically almost every gentleman has a by today who are promoted by germany is one of your world stop 5 bike friendly countries. also according to service, the gentleman city of minster is. the was 2nd most bikes and the city behind utrecht in the netherlands. the city has hundreds of kilometers of bi spots and state of the art infrastructure, develop just 4 bytes. so jasmine cycling does more than a whole b or a sport. it is a life. maybe that's why a 9 to 7 percent of germans know how to write a bike. and so the 3 percent who don't, they're not even as adult a, which is great for me because i never learned how to ride a bicycle back home in india. so now after living in germany for 7 years, i'm finally learning how to ride advice. i think that's when we're at the german cypress club. i took a sort of recycling course for adults here. and not only knowing how to balance

myself on a bike, but also some important sites in germany. like finding the perfect bike for you, reading the correct rich, using proper life, checking in everything on your bike work and reading the street signs correctly. but don't expect to take your bike out on the streets the very next day. it's not that easy. we're almost there. but why did you almost slow bicycle so much that she for many reasons, i like being out in the fresh air and it's healthy and you almost had gone to. so you can also quickly get to the woods and up the hills. otis courts and doing something for yourself, and you don't have to look for a parking space and find out from what i like about cycling is that i can get it from a to be easier, but i do support at the same time smoke. i like riding around on this whole it's also good for the environment. so i'm, we don't have to buy gas in the parking tickets and so on. i think cycling is really good. it's been oh fun, which was i get it. durham is really loves terabytes, but the gentleman stayed on the other hand, has been reducing and cycling budget over the past few years. that's why the

gentleman cyclists association can sees a lot of room for improvement business vision. essentially, we need to improve the infrastructure. we have far too few backpacks and the ones we have are not white enough. i can or they're not continuous. those. those are the biggest shortcomings, just to improve this. we need major investment just for much, much more funding for cycling infrastructure. and we also need investment and research and development because to establish what biking in general can contribute to society for to the transport transition device and whereby can perhaps need to be building up to we currently only have around 400000000 for cycling. if we combine all the budget, the goal is a 1000000000 euros a year for cycling. that a is decidedly yada, yada is. so why did i learn cycling not only is biking cheap, fast and eco friendly to me. it also is a sense of equality and control. here in my neighborhood, in germany, i always see women of all ages cycling no matter what time of the day or night it is or how far they are traveling. i see them be confident, feels secure,

right on both sides. and i also wanted to experience that. so this is how i face my fears and finding learners to cycle. am i sort of confident after this? i'm not a 100 percent right now, but i am hopeful the how is it the cycle in your country the to meet the people making your red hot speeds? just follow also on instagram experience live styles, traditions dining and the odd along with the local people. so

you will get up close and personal join us become a part of our community at dw underscore your we move on now to dropping for castle, a village, styled as a palace, located near the western city of bon dw reporter daniel pen year. those winter on a discovery tour and on covered some interesting facts about the structures past. these german castle knocks us try it out for, for it too. but it has a dark pond and not see he's 3 years of nick it. and a former owner with eccentric taste. let's explore the history of secrets of throw him forward. the dragon castle. yeah, i feel special here but i can

see according to for your german hero, 6 feet, one. slade drag on here and says name tracking book, or drug and castle thousands of people from all over the world. they see him book every year. the castle is located at a 20 minute drive from born was still between 18821984. it's 3rd shawna here with the commanding view of the river. right. and the castle is also a popular filmy location. parts of bobby numbering, germany's most expensive television, serious worship here, tour guide gabby, but any is waiting for me. she has been working here for 14 years. so let's start from the beginning. who decided to do this castle and why? oh, very interesting person court shepherd's auto. he was an in keeper's some.

and so he came from the applause family, but he shut the success at the power stock exchange by selling chairs develop visit with canal and with the new money he bought the hopefully to build his a private home. nice. no, not bad at all. the steps on the phone started died in 1902, she had no children. the castle was sold of several times and transformed into a summer resort. at christian school. and even on up to college in the forty's, they auto pay the school move in here for how long they were here. and what exactly happened? well, for about 4 years until the end of the 2nd world war and well, there were some fortune to 6 a year boys appeared with the military training. and for this he has indoctrination as well as you can imagine. we don't have much information about that time because

of the holidays. some eye witnesses who could tell you what happened to your so they threw away everything but destroyed all the fields and all that because of the main entrance and the stained glass windows were damaged in war war 2 after the war, the castle was used as a chart there for refugees, and then as the training center for the rate of 40 piece, it was supposed to be demolished in the early 19 sixty's. the counsel of change your own are several times and then it was abandoned 10 years. right. tell us about as well as kind of little place, very effective for the 1st people dealing with drugs. this kind of all can take to both realities of old fashioned. nobody was interested in. so that's the reason why it's to them to, for 10 years, because nobody was willing to buy that and to use that. this was

a wonderful venue for romantic. it's good for the consumers and all that. yes, in 1971 will stand up into a polished be not, but doesn't books and had extensive refurbishment of work done. she was well known for his fancy cars, queer keep personality and eccentric taste in interior design the going from here. what do we have here? yes, sitting on. oh, really? so yeah, i think so the one of the pieces of furniture from the time of pulse financial the not and to, well, he always told the visitors of us that this was the throne of the week of tools.

but of course that's what it was. definitely, and that's the reason why our guest has the chance to sit on the throne and feel like a queen or a king we had through the kitchen. it was restored by the state of north drawing westphalia, which has been in charge of the head board sealants. 1989. great attention was paid to every last detail. oh god. oh my god. is a kitchen mix. gobby shows us some secret places inside the castle, liked the servants their case, and the rest of the building to it underwent 30000000 euros worth of preparation. work highlights include the ground marbles 3rd case, and many beautiful are works. few with paintings of news. this room was once the gentleman's chamber. i saw the costs of itself is

a mix of different styles. it is interesting to see how each owner left their mark here and you, have you ever visited a counseling? tell us which ones the, the smoking is harmful? no question about it, but smoking a pipe is one of the oldest habits and traditions in the world. although the demand for pipes has been declining for a long time, the craft of making them is still alive and in some places, such as in the french town of sunsets, where one of the last 5 makers, besides the tobacco pipe plays a vital role in the original french town of centerville, its being considered the world capital of pipe making since the 19th century. since 1865, the attorney, as you know, has been making pipes that are known worldwide. the, the bus chapel is a mazda pipe makeup. we took over the company in 2006.

the is what told me that this is where we turn the head of the pipe. cuz the basic material is, would get a different part is finished on each machine we produce in the series, which means i set up each machine to make a specific model like this one. this is the 1st time you end up around visit log. i make the pipe bowl the inside and the outside value. i don't so the, this is a job with the chips flying the woods condition and quantity play a dishonesty pro. every time is too simple. the system that i've seen this is a root of a tree. heather, so it's the only one type should be made up because it doesn't burn easily and has no taste. our pipes are made of that. what was will probably kill all the way it takes a total of 50 production steps to turn it into upon the 10 years, you know,

for juices around 2000 of them to you to best chapel exports. a 3rd of them to the usa, the sold in france and the food in the rest of the or the settings we work with what we have, who gets important the what blocks are well cutting. so we have as little waste as possible. how long do best hold or the history of the pop is represented throughout the town? it's importance has greatly diminished over time and sub has the demand about $3000.00 thoughts are on display and this includes pipe museum, including many verities hancock specimens. museum director antoine good. now is this so upon may come some of that done? yeah. until a payee is the we are the last company with more than 20 employees that produces around a $50000.00 pipes a year. okay. but it's known to mean event on demand

a vendor, but this is ridiculously few compared to the early 20th century, my boss, when san cloud was still producing $30000000.00 pipes a year. and we'll probably get caught me going to fall back into the best samples after around half. now the time is finished, then it's impulse with the company stem type and he was optimistic about the future if he's croft, since i suffer him into something, i don't believe this craft is threatened with extinction. huh. we also train young people on the pipe is an object that people like it may not be as fashionable as it was a long time ago, but it still finds favor to on the be keeping the pipe has survived the centuries and some variations and will most likely continue to find myers in san claude and beyond the hours that we wrap up another edition of your max. we hope you enjoyed the show. be sure to follow us on social media for
