En: In a picturesque village cradled by the stunning peaks of the Tatry mountains, the preparations for the winter school festival were underway. Sk: Vonku bola jeseň, vietor prenášal prvú snehovú pokrývku medzi starými drevenými domčekmi. En: Outside, it was autumn, and the wind was carrying the first blanket of snow between the old wooden cottages. Sk: Miestna škola, jednoduchá a útulná, bola obklopená rozžiarenými svetlami a papierovými vločkami. En: The local school, simple and cozy, was surrounded by bright lights and paper snowflakes. Sk: Jozef, plachý chlapec, sedel v lavici s hlavou plnou myšlienok. En: Jozef, a shy boy, sat at his desk with a head full of thoughts. Sk: Bol tichý a nenápadný, no vášnivo miloval hudbu. En: He was quiet and unassuming, but he had a passionate love for music. Sk: Od leta sa tajne učil hrať na husle. En: Since summer, he had been secretly learning to play the violin. Sk: Nemal však odvahu to niekomu povedať. En: However, he did not have the courage to tell anyone. Sk: Obával sa, že by sa mu spolužiaci vysmiali.

Sk: Keď sa Marta dozvedela o novom prírastku v programe, bola zvedavá, kto to je. En: When Marta learned about the new addition to the program, she was curious about who it was.
