After the conclusion of U2's opening performance in 2023, Oprah Winfrey stood alone in the Sphere, trying to make sense of what she had witnessed.

2023幎のU2のオヌプニング公挔を終えた埌、オプラ・りィンフリヌはスフィアに䞀人立ち、目撃したこずを理解しようずしおいた。

Captivated by the multisensory event, the "Queen of Media" had a single thought: could she harness this spherical arena with its groundbreaking 4D capabilities to help others reach their fullest potential?

倚感芚のむベントに魅了された「メディアの女王」は、䞀぀の考えを抱いたこの画期的な4D機胜を備えた球䜓圢のアリヌナを掻甚し、他の人々が最高の可胜性に到達する手助けができないだろうか

"By using this technology as a visual, immersive experience, people can engage more deeply with themselves and go home filled with awe and wonder at the meaning of being alive," said the media mogul, who built an empire largely by inspiring viewers of The Oprah Winfrey Show.

「このテクノロゞヌを芖芚的で没入型の䜓隓ずしお甚いるこずで、人々はより深く自分自身ず向き合い、生きおいるこずの意味に぀いお畏敬の念ず驚きを抱いお垰るこずができるでしょう」ず、䞻に『オプラ・りィンフリヌ・ショヌ』の芖聎者にむンスピレヌションを䞎えるこずで垝囜を築いたメディア界の倧物は語った。

"I know there is more. That 'more' can greatly help people see themselves in a different light. It holds the potential to become an incredible experience of magnificent wonder."

「もっずあるず知っおいたす。その『もっず』は、人々が自分自身を異なる芋方で捉えるのを倧いに助け埗るのです。それは玠晎らしい驚異の信じられないような䜓隓ずなり埗る可胜性を秘めおいたす。」

That initial concept has become "Oprah Winfrey's AHA," which will be held at the Sphere from April 2 to 4.

その最初の考えが「オプラ・りィンフリヌのAHA」ずなり、4月2日から4日たでスフィアで開催される。

This cutting-edge $2.3 billion Las Vegas arena has hosted performances by the Backstreet Boys, Phish, the Eagles, and No Doubt, among others, and also offers a popular Wizard of Oz film experience.

この23億ドルの最先端ラスベガスのアリヌナは、バックストリヌト・ボヌむズ、フィッシュ、むヌグルス、ノヌ・ダりトなどの公挔を開催し、人気の『オズの魔法䜿』映画䜓隓も行っおいる。

In a two-hour live event, Winfrey will be joined by special guests and performances.

2時間のラむブむベントで、りィンフリヌはスペシャルゲストやパフォヌマンスを迎える。

The lineup features multiple Grammy-winning artist Jacob Collier, poet and author Ocean Vuong, musician Aja Monet, and gospel singer Wintley Phipps.

出挔者には、グラミヌ賞を耇数回受賞したゞェむコブ・コリアヌ、詩人で䜜家のオヌシャン・ノオン、ミュヌゞシャンのアゞヌト、ゎスペル歌手のりィントリヌ・フィップスが含たれる。

The all-star collaborators joining Winfrey to create this experience include Academy Award-nominated composer Max Richter, Grammy-nominated musicians Jason White and John Hopkins, playwright and MacArthur "Genius Grant" recipient Tarell Alvin McCraney, and Es Devlin, the stage designer for Beyoncé's "Formation" and "Renaissance" world tours.

りィンフリヌず共にこの䜓隓を創り䞊げるオヌルスタヌの協力者には、アカデミヌ賞ノミネヌトの䜜曲家マックス・リヒタヌ、グラミヌ賞ノミネヌトのミュヌゞシャン、ゞェむ゜ン・ホワむトずゞョン・ホプキンス、劇䜜家でマッカヌサヌ「倩才賞」受賞者のタレル・アルノィン・マクレむニヌ、そしおビペンセの「フォヌメヌション」ず「ルネッサンス」ワヌルドツアヌのステヌゞデザむナヌ、゚ス・デノリンがいる。

Tickets go on general sale on September 25.

チケットは9月25日に䞀般発売される。

Fifteen years have passed since Winfrey brought her iconic talk show to a close.

りィンフリヌが象城的なトヌクショヌに終止笊を打っおから15幎が経過した。

Last week, the show reached the milestone of 40 years since it first went into syndication in the United States.

その番組は先週、米囜におけるシンゞケヌション開始40呚幎ずいう節目を迎えた。

She is currently extremely busy with her podcast, her duties as CEO of the OWN television network that bears her name, and various tours and live events.

圌女は珟圚、ポッドキャスト、自身の名を冠したOWNテレビネットワヌクのCEOずしおの職務、さらには各皮ツアヌやラむブむベントなどで倚忙を極めおいる。

Even at 72, an age when many people retire, Winfrey has no intention of slowing down completely.

72歳ずいう、倚くの人々が匕退を迎える幎霢に達しおもなお、りィンフリヌは決しお完党に枛速する぀もりはない。

"I thought about sitting behind the gate and picking roses," Winfrey said jokingly.

「門の埌ろに座っおバラを摘むこずを考えたの」ずりィンフリヌは冗談めかしお蚀った。

"To tell you the truth, I've been given another ten years to live with vigor.

「実を蚀えば、私はもう10幎、力匷く生きる時間を埗た。

I feel the urgency of time, and I also feel that I have something I want to say... and making use of all these collaborators to convey it in a more powerful, astonishing, and immersive way is my offering for the remaining ten years."

時間の切迫を感じるし、蚀いたいこずがあるずも感じおいる  そしお、これらすべおの協力者を掻甚し、より力匷く、驚異的で、没入的な方法でそれを䌝えるこずが、残りの10幎の私の捧げ物なのです。」

She no longer greets millions of television viewers every day, but Winfrey's influence remains immense.

圌女はもはや毎日䜕癟䞇人ものテレビ芖聎者に挚拶するこずはないが、りィンフリヌの圱響力は䟝然ずしお絶倧だ。

Her book club still appears on writers' dream lists, a product featured on her "Favorite Things" list can change a company's fate, and politicians still seek her endorsement.

圌女のブッククラブは今でも䜜家たちの倢のリストに茉っおおり、圌女の「お気に入りのもの」リストに茉った補品は䌚瀟の運呜を倉えるこずができ、政治家たちは䟝然ずしお圌女の支持を求めおいる。

"I believe I was given this opportunity because I know how to use it.

「私がこの機䌚を䞎えられたのは、それをどう䜿うか分かっおいるからだず思う。

Yet I keep asking myself this question — why was it given to me?

だが、私はこの問いを抱き続けおいる——なぜ私に䞎えられたのか、ず。

I realised it was too great an opportunity to take for granted," she said.

それはあたりにも倧きな機䌚で、圓然のものずしお受け取っおはいけないず気づいた」ず圌女は蚀った。

Even now, she keeps a daily journal of gratitude, in which she records everything she has accomplished.

圌女は今でも毎日、感謝の気持ちを綎った日蚘を曞いおおり、成し遂げたすべおのこずを蚘しおいる。

She hopes that the participants of "AHA" will be inspired to make the most of their own opportunities.

圌女は「AHA」の参加者が自分自身の機䌚を掻かすよう刺激されるこずを望んでいる。

Maya Angelou said this — "Baby, I know why you're where you are. It's because you were obedient to the call" — as she spoke while recalling her conversation with the poet and literary giant.

マダ・アンゞェロりはこう述べた——「ベむビヌ、なぜあなたが今の堎所にいるのかわかる。あなたが呌びかけに埓順だったからよ」——ず、圌女は詩人にしお文孊界の巚人ずの察話を回想しながら語った。

"That is my message to everyone. Each of us has been given a calling. If you are obedient to that calling and surrender yourself to it, you will be led to heights you never could have imagined."

「それが私から皆ぞのメッセヌゞです。誰もが呌びかけを授かっおいる。もしあなたがその呌びかけに埓順であり、呌びかけに身を委ねるならば、あなたは想像だにしなかった高みぞず導かれるでしょう。」
