【解析】

W: My guest today is Tim Jones, who organizes an international summer course for young musicians. Tim, tell us all about it.

M: Well, I’m lucky to have such a great job. Basically, young musicians come from all over the world and learn to play together to have a concert tour. By the end of the eight-week course, they’re really good, and hearing them play is what gives me most pleasure. Unfortunately, I don’t get to know them all that well, as organizing every single small thing of the course keeps me busy.

W: So, how do you find the young musicians?

M: We advertise online. Anyone between the ages of 16 and 20 can complete the application form and e-mail it to us. We’re not looking for perfect performance or the good-looking stars of tomorrow. But the course is in English, so a basic level of spoken language is necessary.

W: Where is the course held?

M: Mostly in a university during the summer holidays. They have halls for practicing, and plenty of bedrooms and dining rooms, which is a low cost for us. And of course, convenient transport is a must, so somewhere in the quiet countryside is no good, even though it is more spacious there.
