very intense. um, and quite aggressive also. my 1st impression was a cause of some kind of must clean energy, must calling aggressiveness that, that i don't really feel how, how i will stand on the stage and, and interpret this music with all this convincing and depression. and every conductor martin also up is performing this piece for the 1st time with her. it's a fantastic 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 way from onto and i always worked for this and it's just

a dream come true now that i can play with the most wonderful artist roots, most wonderful conductors. and this really amazing pieces that there were only some 10 percent of classical percussionists or female, including one of her role models who's 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 in works and yes she was the door opener back in the concert hall, the doors are beginning to open for tonight's concert. i practice everyday musicians have actually no holidays and i practiced all day probably to up to 10 hours are 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 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. and the audience reaction you could 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,

but in the concert to you always give like 50 percent more and yeah, it was, it was amazing. it was is very intense. and what does the future hold? i have a lot to finance of for new pieces. what keeps the 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 projects . and with that confidence, dressing leave is showing the world how she marches to the beach of her own drum. the do you think you know about every type of cost to out there? well, we've discovered another you probably haven't heard of yet. ringback 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 to, 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 anything product. if you didn't do the menu on that, there's just one city where these noodles are made up in the mountains on the italian island of sardinia in the mediterranean year. 2 families guard the secret of this costa, but one man is willing to show us how to prepare it. house and 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, the g should i say more law is safe and you have to understand how this semolina reacts to the humidity or heat. i've got the see me because it can absorb a lot of water or release again. i lost 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 course, the fucking point. this is the phase, when many people make a mistake, if they think the dough is done now. but k. adept that 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 to the cavities when he gets a lot of work. it's quite tough. dump a lot. you can see within your elbows, because you know we lift the dose stand 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? plus a job one. okay. what now? 2 last 4 of 816. then 32642100. 28. 200. 56, c. a number of threads doubles each time. a wicker wheel is used to drive the pasta threads. it takes a long time to learn the technique and there's some extra challenge to it. we're going to see you have to do the beginning in the end as fast as possible. because while i'm still working, the sto here because 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, be joining the course of in fall temperatures and 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. i'm feeling good 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 a 50 breakfast that look for you. but this pasta isn't served on just any ordinary

day in sardinia. past the pasta is sacred to the son dedicated to saint francis. when we celebrate and twice a year in water, michel no yet. oh, 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 from the mutton brought to, but it's like you can feel so much of work has gone into it and that makes it even better. my mother always said you should enjoy. so for the day, like any other meal. with respect, you can do one quarter of the pew. 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 meet them the day when talk about the germans on back, which may or may not include people watching to find out. before moving to germany, i had no idea how important cycling was determined. don't blame me because everyone always told me that germany is the ultimate land of cars. right?

the applause is still very true. but the now let's say that today germany has around 60000000 registered motor vehicles, but as it are 83000000 bites here, which means statistically, almost every german 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 atlanta is the was 2nd most bikes and is to take 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 german for me know how to write it by. and so the 3 percent who don't, they're not an opportunity to learn even as adult that which is great for me because i never learned how to ride to basically 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 to do so i can and course sorted down here. and not only knowing how to balance

myself on a bike, but also some important tightening in germany. like finding the perfect bike for you, reading the correct to the rich, using proper life. checking if everything on your bike was 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 does human slow bicycle so much? she for many reasons, i like being out on the fresh air and it's healthy and you want me to get on to. so you can also quickly get to the woods and up the hills. office, dark arts and doing something for yourself. and you don't have to look for a parking space, i'm fine with 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. something that i think cycling is really good. if we don't talk on the tools i get it. jerome is really loves terabytes, but the gentleman stay on the other hand has been reducing and cycling budget over

the past few years. that's why the gentleman cyclists association. there's fees 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 we're biking paths need to be built in october and we currently only have around $400000000.00 for cycling. if we combine all the budget, yeah. the go is a 1000000000 years a year for cycling. that a is this, how about me 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? unbundled and i also wanted to experience that so this is how i face my fears and finding learners to psycho am i sort of confident after this. not a 100 percent right now, but i'm hopeful the how is it to cycle in your countries the needs of people making your read top speeds? just follow also on instagram experience, lifestyle. traditions, dining and piazza along with the local people. so you will get up close and
