"I used to play professionally. I don't know what happened"
-Brett Yang, 2020, after he played Tchaikovsky violin concerto for 40k people live.
I thought he was about to cry.
I read this as Adrew Yang 2020 and I was like: wait, what? lol
I thought they both still played professionally
HAJDJDJFJX I DON’T kNOW WHY I SAD CACKLED TO THIS
@@clainegalan2842 CLAINNNNNNNNN ❤️ MOOD THO
Everyone else: “hi I play professionally for blah blah blah and teach young musicians on the side”
Brett and Eddy: “I used to play professionally. I don’t know what happened.”
Humble pros
Minh Ngoc Nguyen not just only humble they really went out to their comfort zone to make people understand classical music and incorporate it again to the society
They do know, they just know too much. They know how good they are, they just thought they could be the best. You can see how discouraging it is when you see children who looked like they just came outta the fucking womb because they’re so young yet they can seemingly play better than them. They used to play professionally but they grew out of that. All their lives their parents brainwashed them into this idea to just practise, practise and practise, they had enough of that so they’re done. I’m not saying what their parents did were wrong because it made them very successful, but at what expense? Their childhood. They were the literal embodiment of Arima Kousei. There are literal embodiments of Arima Kousei in real life. Your Lie in April is sad because what happened in the anime can and also happens in real life. How Arima Kousei became a prodigy because piano was his life. Why did he stop playing professionally? Because his mom died. Why did Brett and Eddy stop? Because they realised. Brett and Eddy are really smart and intelligent. Their parents made them smart and intelligent and they know too much. Just like what Thanos said: “Knowledge can be a curse”.
Do you know what the literal literal meaning of the word Prodigy? Wasteful. So what does a person being a prodigy mean only literally mean? Exceptionally talented. The Latin meaning means something that’s bound to happen. So Latinally speaking, prodigal children are children where something is bound to happen, right? Child prodigies are children who are going to be famous.
Edit: grammatical error and spelling corrections
@@koksu5692 "All their lives their parents brainwashed them into this idea to just practise, practise and practise..." Eddie says multiple times in this video that his parents didn't even want him to become a musician, so you're kind of disproving yourself.
@@koksu5692 i think you might be projecting mate, or at the very least reading between the lines a bit too much

When the girl says "I play classical saxophone *not jazz*" I feel like she's been asked that question since forever 😂
@Abby Belliveau You need to listen to Stan Getz.
As a saxophonist, yeah.
I do play some jazz, but yeah that is super relatable.
I play clarinet and everyone over 40 throws jazz names at me when they find that out.

@@raniadahayu1412 Eddy met Brett at math tutoring
Kumon
Isaac Ling Is it really Kumon?? lol
i hope twoset realise that although they don’t professionally play in an orchestra anymore, they’re doing so much for the younger generations of classical musicians. you have no idea how lovely it was to find a platform for younger classical musicians as it seems to fade more and more as a music genre because the majority is so focussed on the newer styles. and that’s okay, it’s just really nice to have that platform for younger generations, so thank you.
wait they dont anymore? why
Where can i find a classical music channel?
@@fanach I don't know exactly what kind of channel you're talking about, but I always look for channels of famous orchestras or college's orchestras channels that have some educational content too, like interviews and documentaries.
@@paulo.alexandrino like?
@@fanach Berliner Philharmoniker, Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Wiener Philharmoniker are magnificent! They have amazing performances here on UA-cam.

“Brett: used to make music professionally” MAN BRETT RLLY OUT HERE ROASTING HIMSELF
Explains why he always looks dead inside.
Brett: I dont know what happened therr
Remember what they once said: "This is not a roasting channel"
He’s a mood lmao
Roast *intensifies*
Jubilee: doesn't create classical musicians ver.
Twoset: fine, we gonna do this ourselves
They should have done it together 🤔
I have the power to make this 666
That is 100 percent what I thought
I love the concept and the video, but I'm just wondering if there's going to be any copyright issue here...
@@schiesspulver9205 there's no copyright for ideas for videos (see the react trademark conversation)
My family was supportive with my career choice
Most asians: *Goes to the disagree side*
I read that as “disgrace” woops
Steven Hellsing that would also work (according to parents)
its just that asian parents so concern about their kids future that they need to interupted it,,, and cant blame 100% on them too, it is asian culture to decide their kids future
I've inherited the tiger parent nature. I'm tough on my kids too. My mom was disappointed that I became an engineer instead of a doctor... but she realized a few months ago that I can get my doctorate in engineering... lol
I'm Asian and that's kinda true 😔😔😔
10:11
Subtitles: I wouldn't have met Brett if it wasn't through music, and math tutoring...
my eyes: math *torturing*
Same thing though
Close enough.
Thank you!!! I was thinking.. mass tutoring???
Same difference.
"I play classical saxophone NOT JAZZ" I wonder how many times she needs to tell people that lol
Lol, i thought the same
All her life...
I used to train classical sax and people would say all the time "hey play a little jazz for us". Lol, I could manage pop and contemporary stuff, but jazz was completely out of my range.
I guess classical sax is one of the least known Instruments - as she explained, there isn't much "real" classical repertoire for sax. Well, there are always the viola parts in wind orchestra...
@@altmail1572 yeah. one of my good friends is a classical saxophonist and was telling me that he doesn't like playing jazz (even though he is pretty good at it) as much as he likes playing classical stuff. and i'm over here as the flute player who solely plays jazz saxophone
You like jazz?
Quotes of the day :
Brett : "I used to play profesionnally, I don't know what happened."
Eddy : " I wouldn't have met Brett if it wasn't through music... and maths tutoring. "
That's why I am bad at math - to make friends.
Is this like Mean girls?
Did Brett tutor him math or something?
Jay W I think they were both in a maths tutoring after school class their parents put them in to get better grades, that's how they said they met. But that's beause they'were also both learning violin already at that time that they have then really bonded (I like how you assume it was Brett who would have been tutoring Eddy and not the other way around, they actually look like they were both A class students from an early age).
You happened to meet Eddy, Brett :>>
Damn! Eddy's such an intellectual. When he speaks, he really make good points in a manner that no one would be offended. Especially in the part when he asked if gov't should allocate more funds in music/arts as general.
Yeaaahhhh huhuhu
I really loved how Eddy respond and shared his thought too.
one of many reasons why I loved his mind :')
Ikr 🤧🤧
And also.. To a certain point, government funded institutions don't have the reputation of high quality. Yes, a degree of free education opens up the supply but the free market and competition is the drive that creates good quality.
4:30 Parents: Y U NO DOCTOR
Also parents: *Forces violin at 3 years of age*
Exactly！
Eddy: I wouldn’t have met Brett if it wasn’t through...
Everyone: **Awwwww** in 10:15
I envy their friendship so much!
I´m liking your profile picture ;)
AHAHA I laughed because of their reaction
Literally me though I felt the love through the screen
yesss
Conductor: Everyone, don't forget to wear a face mask during the rehearsal.
Pianist: Sure.
Violinist: Okay!!
Harpist: Ok that's no problem.
Saxophonist: Okay! ......Wait what?
Trumpet : ...ok?
The Sight of Sound That would ruin the entire point of the mask though..
@@schnonk it's kinda like he intentionally wrote this to make joke
Schuhei
Flutist: *no*
maggoteater I was talking about the cutting a hole in the mask reply
16:56 “How do you express through music if you don’t know what to express?” Daaamn that’s a great advice actually. I feel like it didn’t get enough attention 😄
@gJb 1 😁 It's common sense. But 'great' when the sense for it is not so common. Some (e.g. students) dont truly know unless told so by others (e.g. teachers).
I have so much respect for Eddy because he acknowledged that the government funding better music education wouldn't necessarily be the perfect solution some people believe it to be.
Yeeeeesssss this is the comment I've been looking for.... I stan Eddy hahaha
God yes, I thought all of them would ignore it and say "agree" but it went well
I remember wanting to play the flute and the guitar as a child. If music school had been available and free I sure as hell would have attended it.
@@expression3639 The only reason I don't think it would be feasible to have "free" music education is bc I went to high school in a pretty poor area and my school couldn't even afford a reasonable number of buses due to overpopulation (and every time they'd build a new wing it would already be too crowded again), let alone fund better music education. I think there are more important things that need funding than music, especially in poorer parts of the US, and this is coming from somebody who plays oboe and tenor sax. It's expensive as hell and not fair to the people who can't afford it, but there are things that could benefit everybody that I believe are more important, like not being crammed 35+ to a class.
Nightwing eyyy
Brett: *Goes to an answer*
Friend: *Gives one good point*
Brett: *SOLD*
Free will : *not found*
???
Brett is me
Okay but can we just take a minute to appreciate how twoset never runs out of content ideas
This specific video is kinda cheating, but yeah
They stole/made up.
At least they gave us something. Cant be mad about that. Content is content!
@@classicalhero7 well the concept yes but the other channel does this for tense and undiscussed topics. I think it's the same as youtubers who take a "challenge" and do that also. It's more running with an idea.
This is a great idea, but they should have at least credited Jubilee ;-;
Can we just appreciate how handsome and smart Eddy look on this episode
He is really reaallyyyyy cute
Julka Pasternak I’m as straight as a circle, but damn he’s fine
He alway looks smart and handsome
@@gentlesandladymen it just occured to me that a circle isn't straight :D
i know im like head of the simpsquad haha
Is it just me or are Eddy's thoughts and the way he expresses himself extremely attractive?
Yes it is so attractive! ♥️♥️
Mhm
Yeah. Though to be fair, Eddy might have had more time to ponder upon the questions himself. I'm sure one of them compiled them
ya eddy is super attractive
You guys should look up “sapiosexual”
Eddy and Brett - you guys are paid to play beautiful music on your tours and in your videos. You *are* professional musicians. Just because you don’t play in an orchestra doesn’t mean you’re not pros. Don’t be so hard on yourselves - you haven’t given up on professional musicianship, you’ve just gone to a different road of professional musicianship.
It’s amazing that alongside that, you entertain, teach and motivate others to play music as well. Be proud of what you’ve become!
Really well said. So true
Well said. Really well said
So lets agree to upvote this so Brett n Eddy can see it n feel the love!
I strongly agree...
I wonder how old r u
For everyone who didn't read the description box: they filmed it before the outbreak!!
I don't know why I didn't think anything of it until your comment, lol.
Thank god !
Who cares
Can we just appreciate how natural it is for Ed to point towards Brett right away when they're talking about deep relationships? @10:10 Like I'd cry if my best friend did that. You being important coming so naturally to someone. For me TwoSet is also about their bond. These two make me feel so warm and happy!
I´ve been saying: "this is the last twoset video I´ll watch today" for 2 hours now. Guess I like your content.
Me too. Been binge watching their vids. And there are SO many!
Same
Im a contemporary drummer, why am i here?
"I have found deeper relationships doing music than anywhere else."
eddy: for me it's obvious, i wouldn't hv met brett if it wasn't through music
everyone: awwwwwwwwwwww
eddy: and maths tutoring
‘My family was supportive of my career choice:
Brett and Eddy being the only ones in the disagree area: *asian situation right now :(*
Kimmy Chan so uh... what are you arguing for?
@Kimmy Chan That's literally what happened to Brett & Eddy though...
I started piano really late, but I'm planning on double majoring because I love it so much. I was super surprised how supportive my mom was, but my dad thinks it's not a good idea because he thinks music is not financially secure.
Its some what true.
Like so many Asian parents want their kids to be "successful"
But because of all the economic issues and wars and ...
They don't see music as a career, or even something that you can make money from.
And they want you to be a doctor, or an engineer, or a lawyer. Cause these things are the careers that is needed the most in Asia.
I really think they want what's best for us but they don't see the changes the world had during these years.
Like Asia Is full of unemployed doctors
@@ainazaghdam8622 Yes, I understand that, and i fully agree. I only chose it because I truly love the piano and I would like to pursue it.
Eddy: "I've been playing for 20 years"
All TwoSet Fans: "TwEntY YEaRs??"
I KNOW ! He looks 20!
Poop Person his 27 he did start at 4
Steven Hellsing oof oh I was about to say "HE IS IN HIS 30s???"
Poop Person Brett is 27 and eddy is 26 just a year younger. Brett played when his 4 but got serious when he was 7, Eddy he played when he was 6.
They mentioned this in some videos but i dont remember which one.
Steven Hellsing brett is 28 and eddy is 27 this year
I want a friendship like Brett and Eddy's friendship.I wonder if i can find it.
Fate😓
me too
You don't find those friendships, you make them.
I wonder too.. 😭
@@peternagy7366 yes these type of friendships are built not found but sometimes people are surrounded by wrong people. Sometimes it is really hard to find a decent person around you. It is just complicated man
The way Eddy talks and expresses his feelings without even blushing melts my heart. When i grow up i want to be like him.💕

"i used to play professionally....
.. i don't know what happened,"
honestly that's such a mood.
Oof, as an Asian, I really understand Eddy's point about having parents who grew up with economical concerns D:
As a Turkish person same here as well (especially with the current government) 😭
@@somenitrogenconsumer8859 unfortunately yea, these are the facts (im Turkish too) i really understand you
The Asian gap about career choices I am ded....
I've Asian friends, mom is a mathematician and dad is an engineer. I joked that their kid who played the piano might go into music. Was pleasantly surprised when the reply was "wherever he's happy."
TwoSetViolin should do a, "Can Violinists and Violists Agree?".
Yesss please
xD haha
Yesss
*I'm pretty sure they wouldn't even agree on the filming date*
I don’t think they have violists as friends lmao
Eddy: But was it for pianoforte or for harpsichord?
Alex: *answering with the best shush ever*
So many types of pianos...
It was really funny question Lol
can I just say that Eddy is extremely good-looking. like holy :o
I KNOWWWWW
his hair was such a vibe like bruh i turned gay
He's so damn cute 🥺✨❤️
cass brett is also good looking!! But yes p, Eddie is hella fine. Like I’m as straight as a circle, but damn-
FINALLY SOMEONE SAID THAT
"what music do you listen to?"
"BTS, the safest answer"
yes brett knows whats uppp
Eddy seems like a really wise young person. His comments on the government and also enjoying life to be able to express what you’ve lived through your music seemed so mature.
Richy G Actually, all throughout the video, Eddy seemed super mature! And Brett too! I guess we're just so used to them messing around that we forget that they're really wise and experienced musicians.
well they’re almost 30 so...
I was just about to say that! Amazing guys with steel-hard friendship 😍
Eddy’s so smart and wise, I could just listen to him all day long!
exactly what I was thinking!
Eddy: "For me it's obvious." I wouldn't have met Brett if it wasn't through music and math tutoring."
Everyone: AWwWWwWW
And the camera goes all wobbly with emotion.
BROMANCE
Effects I’ve noticed from doing music:
Confidence
Experience of being on stage
Public speaking (as soloists performing you have to speak and present what you’re about to play)
Working as part of a team
Maths (as a bassoonist figuring out where I’m coming in after 250 bars rest)
Patience (counting bars, long orchestral rehearsals)
Focus
Time management
Language (as a singer lots of language learning but also as a musician in general lots of language bits here and there; Italian being a big one)
Responsibility (the shame of forgetting your pencil for rehearsal can help with that eek!)
Lmao
17:31 Eddy: "What's R&R?"
Spoken like a true Ling Ling
brett’s taste is so exquisite....classical music with a side of bts
I think the bts part is because of Eddie
Angie Chang honestly 😂
He doesn't know much abt pop atm i guess what pops up in his mind is BTS xd
@@angiechang7866 and we shall thank Eddie for that!
“It’s the safest answer!”

All hail to math tutoring
and music.
Imagine they never went to math tutoring 😭 we won’t have twoset:(
Pianist be like:
-I don't like moving
Lol
I'd really love to listen to Eddy talk more about everything and anything he wants to. Even his way of expressing the fact that he doesn't have developed opinions on certain topics are very eye opening and you learn different ways to just communicate better from him. Mad props to Everyone here, I really loved listening to everyone and especially Eddy of course. TwoSet never fails to help people like me grow and assimilate new thoughts and opinions by understanding others better bit by bit.
I feel like all the comments in this video are like, "dang, Eddy is so wise". I totally agree but also give Brett some love! 😆
Ella Jeffres It’s ok, we all know his Brett’s true abilities. He doesn’t need to talk much, he has proven his worth through his skills and patience.
Eddy's giving me Elon Musk vibes in this one.
check out eddy's old channel lol
I agree with what you said 100%. I love it whenever i get to hear him express his thoughts, his opinions, his deep thinking, his passionate talk about music pieces or the way he instructs and teach as in other videos. Such cool nerding
Lol as an Asian it was never occurred to me that music could be a “career” because how I brought up and the stigma around it. It always looked as a thing you do as a hobby or as a “side earning” when you have another stable job. Which kind of made me sad because I love playing piano, I love performing, it has always been some day dream for me to actually go around the world playing the piano classically but there’s no way I can do it now. People might say “it is never too late” but reality sucks man.
Edit:
Wow, I didn’t think I will get so many response and it’s actually endearing that so many people has been through and thinking the same thing as I did. You are not alone!
I really appreciate all of the response and I’ll try my best to personally reply each of it with my own thoughts. It has been a really insightful and touching for me to read through the replies.
I’m sure all of you meant well, however I’d like to say that I’m not saying this because I’m being pessimistic or “giving up” on my “dream”, I’d just like to point out how growing up, as a children and even as a teen it never crossed my mind that I “can” be a classical musician, I know classical musicians exist but it just never occurred to me that it is an option (does it makes sense? Haha) and I think a lot of people experience the same thing, thus making music career less approachable for kids (I mean, I even dreamed to be an astronaut when I was young and other “irregular” career-- but being a musician was never crossed my mind although I love playing piano)
As I’ve already said in a reply below, I’m an engineer in my late 20s and I love my job. Although sometimes I can’t help but wonder how life would turn out if I’m a classical musician, as it seems so different as a life as an engineer. Sometimes part of me wishes I was one, when I went to classical concert and such (do you get it? Haha) I didn’t quit playing music altogether. I still do some small gigs and teaching young kids occasionally. Being a professional classical musician is just a day dream of me, something that I always wondered but not something I “have to” achieve. It just something that I keep dear in my heart.
I wish everyone luck in your respective path that you’ve choose or wish to take. Best regards.
Nabila Ahmeidiati as another Asian it’s so true it really takes courage to go against the tradition and stereotype
Nabila Ahmeidiati Yeah! Kind of the same for me in Germany as a cellist. I feel you!
Nabila Ahmeidiati Another asian here. I too had musical training from an early age, but my true passion lies with the visual arts. I’m going to pursue my love for fine arts at university this fall (more likely spring 2021 at this rate...) and I plan on turning this hobby into a profession. Chase your dreams or you will die *miserable* (that’s a bit of an exaggeration, but you get the idea). What is the point of life if not to live? Nothing is too late. You may not be able to travel the world in it’s current state, but plan big and you will win in the long run. DO IT OR I WILL *VIRTUALLY COUGH ON YOU*.
Why the fuck do I sound so pretentious in the beginning hahaha
same here as an asian but come on you dont need to obey what your family want
She said, "Technically you're great,you can play the notes; you just need to live life more because you need to mature, experience life. And how do you express the music if you don't know what to express..."
As a musician, this hit me HARD
this is why child prodigies often don't impress me or move me the same way that a seasoned pro does. Every moment of our lives has a feeling associated with it, sometimes very intense ones, and music is often something we associate with vivid memories. I just don't think a child, or someone who was sheltered, can express these feelings or feel them the same way. That's why talent is only one aspect of overall potential.
This even hit me as a writer and was honestly a relief to hear I didn't even know I needed to hear it
That was what my piano teacher always said to me and i never got what she meant until i quit the lessons and grew up... only later on i realised the meaning behind her words when i started to play and practice for myself and not only for my lesssons
I think this applies to a lot of professions, that's such a powerful perspective... Gonna try to keep that one with me
as an illustrator, this hit me HARD too
I don't know but feels like I need to hear this a long time ago, daamnn
love how they wrote everyone elses name in full while Brett and Eddie are just adressed as Brett and Eddie.
Yes, he is a remarkable violinist; additionally, Eddy Chen’s speaking voice is emotively euphonic.
I fell in love for the way that eddy talk and the way he just express what's has been into his head and thoughts. Ah, i just like my man how I like my coffee. Also the way that brett is just very important in eddy's life and eddy in brett's, bro, i'm soft for that, it's the most beautiful friendship I have ever seen, in a first place I thought they were brothers, lol

I really like how Eddy explains his perspectives.
"You need to live life more, because you need to mature and experience life, and how can you express through music if you don't know what to express?" That's some deep wise life tip Eddy
I do agree with that. Musicality is much more rich and real when you have life experiences

Can someone tell eddy, that his way of expressing himself is perfect? I feel like he always finds the right words.. and btw, his hair looks soooo good!! And not to forget, that Brett should be praised for staying loyal
The way Eddy expresses his thoughts and speaks with perfect tone and pauses tho
Eddy was expecting one person to not like pop music. Was he thinking about Brett? 🤔
Angela Dominique I know I was
Mon lmao same
How can you dislike that which you do not know?
tbh I was expecting brett to disagree lol
Brett once said he was neutral about music. If we put some music on the radio, he will enjoy it but he will rarely listen to music willingly
I know I’m obsessed, but Eddy has this way of talking which has the sound of thinking (I know it sounds weird 😓)
Agreed
I know exactly what you mean! And I agree too! I’m working on explaining things the way Eddie does 🤣
128th like
FairyWings thinking out loud?
Wendy Shell 😂😂😂 yeah. That the what it is 😂😂. I just could get the words out
I just love to listen to Eddy talk. He just looks so wise, so profound, so lost in his thoughts... I just love that he brings another perspective on matters that I wouldn't even think about otherwise.
(Sorry for my bad english)
Yeah. You gotta love Eddy.
How do you even dare to post a comment with that english though?? (seriously though, I'm not a native speaker either, but maybe you should be more confident; your english seems fine to me).
@@koalabandit9166 hahahah yeah, you are right, I should be more confident about it
Are you brazilian? Every single brazilian (including me) say that lol
@@sarahvelten_ yes, I'm Brazilian haha
Jubilee: Nope,
Twoset: Yes
Erin: ThAtS nOt VeGaN
She was so insufferable. I wish I could like your comment one hundred times.
ahahahaha yes!!
Who is Erin?
@@Vanessa-dx7dy She's a lady that enrolled on one of jubilee programs odd man out. It's the one about "who's not a vegan?". she argued many tines that she felt that a contestant wasn't a vegan because they had done something not strict vegan. So she says many times "that's not vegan" and it end up as a joke between the fans of the program. If you have the time check this episode later, it's quite entertaining.
“BTS is the safest answer” *oh Brett... he doesn’t know*
you're not wrong
yeaahhhh.... whos gonna tell him.
I actually wish he may listen to BTS someday, their lyrics are so nice
@@alex_ye in fact more than 50% of their fans don't understand what do they sing :)
vn1 tuitron probably more than 80% 😂
“Group of people”. “Get together”. “Hanging out”. What are these concepts?
Excuses not to practice?

8:22 as a pianist i very agree with Alex, maybe i would even have put myself more on the disagree-side. In my experience, pianists seem to be able to stand a lot more pressure and concert anxiety than other musicians, who maybe are more used to play in groups or in an orchestra, so that they get more nervous when playing solo. I´m not a professional concert pianist (yet ;) ), and i also don´t really want do be, but over the years, when i was performing, i learned to control that feelings that stood in my way to a good performance. In my opinion, getting nervous just makes it worse and it doesn´t help your concentration at all. Last year, i had the opportunity to play Debussys 'clair de lune' in our every-year school concert in our townhall, and i wasn´t nervous at all. Not only that, i even enjoyed it so much, i completely ignored the audience and just concentrated on the music. It is very important to me to not worry about what mistakes could happen, but to look forward to having a nice and fun concert. Maybe you will think of that when performing yourself ;) just have fun!

dhtp music yea it’s like super stressful, because when you play a wrong note in an orchestra, it’s fine, because the other instruments will cover it up, but when you miss a note on piano, everyone notices .
I used to play piano. Maybe I was so bad because I literally can’t even talk with people in only somewhat comfortable with without a stutter and it’s even worse when I do any type of presentation. (Fml i take a class that basically social skills cause of this)
Can't agree more! It is very stressful that we cannot hide our mistakes
Eddy is so articulate it's super attractive
6 professional musicians yelling at me to go practice is extremely intimidating. I guess I better go practice.
At 10:15 , 2million people around the world also said *"AWWWWWW"* 🥰😭
dats so tru
Lol yeah 2 million people out of 600 thousand said that

i love eddy’s thought process.
I love how Eddy explains things. His voice is soothing and convincing. I wonder what happen with that Eddy when he's making videos only with Brett. Hahaha....
“Hi. My name is Brett. I play violin.”
“And I use to...”
“Play professionally”
“I don’t know what happened”
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 don’t know what happened huh
Lol brett better go practice
whats up with all the quotations
I
Don’t
Know
It’s just funny
me: "hey what about social dis--"
me: *reads description*
me: YOU MAY PROCEED
@akanerosechan yess they even separate eddy and Brett
What is going through your head?
I’m 15 and play the Tenor Saxophone and for as long as I remember I have been in love with classical music , even people at school have made fun of me for it because I love it so much. I have always thought since I play the Tenor Sax i will never be able to play classical music. Yet, the classical saxophonist in the video gave me inspiration however, I still have no idea where to start to becoming a classical musician. Maybe someone could comment under this comment and help me. You would be greatly appreciated!!
baka • I will !! Thank you 💓💓
❤️ I play Alto sax. Seek out an instructor in your area
Ella Jeffres I will look into it if there are any in my area because I live in a sort of woody area if that makes any sense
Maybe things have changed. But in my day, you were never a tenor saxophonist. You were a saxophonist period. That always also could pay a standard clarinet. Whereas a clarinet player may say they specialise in one saxophone. Whether in an orchestra or a stage band, we all had at least 3 instruments beside us, though usually 4. And like in the Bolero, sometimes you would switch mid piece! Not all orchestra's are huge! Start with knowing your genre of instruments! Though keys are different, notation is the same!
A little late to the party but many music teachers (including myself, although I am not a saxophone player unfortunately) are teaching online or have begun teaching online in the last year. Perhaps that's a way to find a classical saxophone teacher if there isn't one in your area? Good luck and the best general advice I have for you is to listen, listen, listen! (To decent recordings of the kind of music you want to play)
Love how brett tip toe at 10:21
When eddy says "The government should fund the arts more," he takes on a more imposing voice and body
MP Chen
Nikhil Manandhar they really need to, my schools music department is amazing staff wise and they get amazing opportunities like a European tour etc. However it’s so much planning and even sometimes money out of their own pockets because they don’t get ANY funding a year. It all has to be fund raised
@@maxlove8894 but what make them deserve to be funded?
@@xNugalx money income
"I used to make play music professionally, but I don't know what happened"
Dang Brett. don't be so hard on yourself
15:01 doesn't hit close to home, it HITS HOME, i am trying to stop this habit of leaving projects halfway through and actually finish something that i can feel proud of.
does anybody noticed how Brett's voice is so deep and beautiful??
i think he would sing very well
How come I feel like Brett and Eddy roasted themselves in the introduction… Well I mean, they are still playing professionally, but just in a different way!! So please don't roast yourselves Brett and Eddy and we love you!!🙈🙈🙈
Love that Brett is in front cause he is the *cough* shortest
Are you okay? cus you cough
Hahahaha brruvv
Oh I love your idea abt this =)))
*gasp* oh no corona
Put on a mask will you? Damn such impertinence
Brett and Eddy's bond and friendship never fails to amaze me.
Friendship goals right there.
As an art student I can relate to many of these things. Many people think all kind of art should be free, and creating art is only a hobby. Not a real job. I have studied art related studies almost 9 years, and still people are thinking I'm not studying a real profession. My family doesn't support me either. I hope people learn to appreciate different career choises, even though they don't see the importance themselves. Without diversity this world would be a grey and a dull place to live.
Yup. Don't let the lack of support get you down. Find your own community.
Did everyone else go "awwwweee" when Eddy said he wouldn't have met Brett if it weren't for music at around 10:00?
Of course ! x)
That was so cute
I went awwwwww big time!!!
I SQUEALED SO LOUD
Man, I don't know what's making me cry more, the fact that I relate to Brett and Eddy's parents disagreeing with their career choices (I'm taking fine arts) or the fact that Eddy said he wouldn't have met Brett if it weren't for music 🥺😭
I support your career choice! ( ; w; )/ ♥
I think for me, it's both. I wish I had a friendship like Brett and Eddy. And as an Asian, I could relate to that. I almost became a lawyer but now, I'm about to take multimedia arts in college.
And a great love story was born.
How do yall cry so easily lol
@@pauladal3968 because lacking support from your parents for your passion hurts too much especially if they often downplay that choice, and their friendship is beautiful and rare that one could only wish to have the same relationship as theirs
real talk tho: near the end I kind of glimpsed what kind of depth their love for music must have, in order for them to dedicate so much of their lives to it everyday and find so much fulfillment in the dedication after all is said and done. like. man, I hope I love doing something that much someday, you know? this video made me straight-up yearn for the feeling that looking back on music and how it's affected them must give these people skdhsjhssj.
My family can't really afford lessons or an instrument, even though I'd love nothing more than to learn the piano or violin. I know I wouldn't get to a professional level anymore since I'm a teen, but I do feel like it would have been enriching in my childhood and it could still be enriching in my future. I'm very sad that my school didn't offer classes to learn instruments or after school activies. I guess it's difficult to realize, but it would be quite nice
I'm in the same boat as you. I have a really big family so there isn't much money to go around. And my school doesn't offer any classes because they don't have much money either.
Same, I think I would have genuinely enjoyed playing the piano, but because of our financial situation, I don't think I will have the opportunity to truly hone my skills. I am in my teens and my parents do not think playing a musical instrument is some sort of priority anymore. Besides, I think they will just let me focus on academics ( My parents are not fond of supporting the idea that music interests me. I understand the financial burden, but imposing in me the belief that my life should revolve on my studies is a no-no. It's kind of sad.)
@@jieceldiaz0340 sorry if this sounds blunt as I'm typing pretty quickly. U could get a job to buy a few £hundred (equivalent) keyboard and start learning on that. It's not gonna be as good as a piano but should be touch sensitive and give you a good starting point for a while.
Sad, I live in Hungary, where music schools are very cheap (you can get a sponsorship) and If you choose to play professionally, you can go to a music high school (which is free).
I know this is a year later.... but just to encourage you...
My mom wanted to learn the piano when she was a kid but her dad died when she was young. So, the family, although not poor, didn't have extra for things like piano lessons. (My grandma, who never remarried, had 6 children to raise. The oldest was in her early teens and the youngest was only 5 at the time). So, when my mom went to uni, she paid for her own lessons on the organ. :) She's not a professional but she can tinker out a tune on the organ and piano.
I also know of another gentleman who went to college to take business or something -- totally unrelated to music. He experienced a life-changing event that led him to want to become a musician. He started taking music lessons as a freshman at uni and he graduated with a music degree. He became a music professor at a small college and taught piano and other music subjects. He also taught piano tuning. He is an AMAZING musician.... and he only took lessons during those 4 years in college and then practiced 40 hours a day. :)
So... all that to say -- it's never too late to learn.... and you can become a pro. You might not be the youngest pro in the world... but you can do it. :)
Lowkey was surprised when they pulled out a sax player we have never been very included in classical music only things like jazz so respect from me a fellow player
100% agree.
It doesn't sound classical
HopefulDavid you should listen to Otis Murphy he's my favorite classical sax player
The oboe chick was busy ;D
Eddy: I have found deeper relationships doing music than anywhere else.
(Eddy moves to AGREE)
*Eddy: For me, it's obvious. I wouldn't have met Brett if it wasn't through music and math tutoring.*
My heart.
Incase you want to hear the advice that Eddy was talking about (because I know I did) 16:30
eddy's hair looked so good here
*twoset writes their names on the description box*
Me: who's Eddy Chen?
Also me five seconds of thinking hard: OWH.
hahahahaa lol
