Seeing Ray emitting soloist aura and giving advice with a bedhead is just so hilarious.
What if they don’t reach 4 million subscribers by the time that the concert’s due?
@@johnstack6225 I think they’ll do it anyways.
Yeah that’s what I was thinking.
@@johnstack6225 bruh it’s a ticketed concert that sold already, how the hell they gonna change their performance
@@johnstack6225 Doesn't matter, they'll reach 4 mil anyway, just take it as an advance payment
Eddy: he looks so peaceful I’m jealous
Also Eddy: *ruthlessly turns on light*
*turns on the light* and then WAKEY WAKEY
Well that's how some jealous people act...
The maestro hath been awakened from its slumber
This is also a good way to test how hard you can push the partying while still being able to perform the next day lmao
Eddy is such a main character in this vid, wakes everyone up to train but doesn't train himself. A true main character
And the jacket too
hell yeah
Oh he was probably out in the middle of the night hunting down M&Ms for the boys and then picking out all the orange ones!
The fact that two set are so close and such good friends with some of the world’s top soloists (Ray and Hilary) is something that shouldn’t be forgotten. Not everyone can just ask Ray Chen to stay for the night and give them a mini masterclass on a concerto at 8am - that’s an achievement in itself!
And play smash bros and eat takeout😭😂
I don't think the classical musicians these days have big big fame-induced egos like what you would imagine of a pop star/celebrity. I mean, on a basic level, as someone once said to me in a masterclass, "Classical music famous is not Taylor Swift famous." haha. And being a successful classical musician almost certainly guarantees you to be a true expert and self-critiquing perfectionist. The more you know and can do, the more you know how much more there is you need to know and do. So it really makes one very humble.
They have been friends so long, you know. They are both from Brisbane, and trust me it’s a such a small city and they also went, played, & studied in the same circle, which was ordinary if you want to be a professional classical musician in Brisbane.
@@nickxiao6126 Idk about that, but unfortunately, there are classical people or hobbyists who act elitist and bash other genres like pop and modern music. I like classical too and many genres. There's videos and thousands of comments on them saying that modern music is bad or not music. There's also comments there saying classical is superior. I think partly, these people's want to grift; an excuse to bully; or be edgy, contrarian, or trendy. Such as it's trendy to hate on certain things, like modern and classical music.
@TheHunter33DD scammer
Other people: It sounds like a good idea at the time.
Eddy: It sounds like a bad idea I'm so excited to do it.
Also Eddy at 8am: I regret this already.
That's a HORRIBLE idea. When?
That’s TwoSet spirit right there
😂
it's all fun and games until they do this to eddy for 5 mil
I love how ThreeSet’s idea of being dragged out of bed in the middle of the night is the alarm going off at 7:55 a.m. 😂
they did adjust the plan after they stayed up past the middle of the night 😂
Yeah, I'm jealous that they woke up at 8 instead of my normal 5
@@fantomhalo3938 weak
I would be on my way to school at that time
Night people are just like that
I love the dynamic with Ray! He seems humble but has the ability to be ultra self-confident when needed.
Oddly, those often go together in real life...
cause he knows he's good lol
props to these two for engineering a private concert + masterclass/slumber party with a world-famous soloist and somehow making a living out of that.
This ^^^^ 😂
I wanna join in too. I'll bring my chromatic harmonica with me :3
I’ll bring the clarinet
And we love every minute of it!
Ray really is a master violinist. You can tell his musicality is just on a different tier. And he really was proud of Brett too hah
Indeed! Every time I listen to a world class soloist especially if it was a child prodigy I get my soul and self-esteem crushed and thrown away
Actually I think Brett just needs to have more dynamic contrast(larger dynamic range), like what the teacher from Curtis showed him before.
@@nerdcartoon2544 I mean... You shouldn't be looking at those world class players and let that destroy your dreams, instead you should use their example to give yourself motivation to achieve more and become better
@@idonkat6097 I agree. You will never be as good a violinist as Ray Chen or as good a pianist as Evgeny Kissin, but letting that discourage you only shows you have the wrong mindset. You should look to them as examples of great musicianship and let that inspire and encourage you rather than only humble you (although a little humility never hurts!)
@@BenjaminAnderson21Lmao no, your comment is rather depressing
I was really glad to hear Ray encourage Brett in the area of confidence and to not overthink, but to really go for it and play. This is something that I’ve noticed about Brett in the past. However, Brett REALLY IS better than he believes. When Brett becomes nervous it also seems that he becomes intimidated, which effects his musicality, which has caused Brett to (at times) perform like a shy violinist. However, if Brett works on Ray’s advice to relax, not over think and just go for it, we will definitely see a new level of Brett’s playing. Again I say, Brett is significantly better than he thinks he is! There are moments when he was relaxed and joking around that I’ve gotten a glimpse of how good Brett really is on the violin. Brett has the skills to perform the Mendelssohn concerto well, he only has to believe in himself.
So Brett, I respectfully say directly to you please do not overthink it. Ray’s compliment to you in the video was legit, we noticed. I say all of this to encourage you. As you continue to prepare the technical parts, please continue to believe in yourself and learn relaxation techniques. These things will naturally build your confidence, drastically reduced any technical mistakes resulting in you performing with even more vigor, your musicality will soar. You have another level in you as a violinist, even I can see it. You don’t have to work for that next level it’s already sitting there in you waiting to be released as you relax more and believe in yourself, the result will immediately show in your playing. As Ray said, go for it and play Brett… play!😁
Your advice worked! Thanks!
There's a reason Brett's Left Pizz is legendary. We've seen him at a level on par with Hilary when he's relaxed.
Yeah I just watched Brett's half-asleep warmup and wow, the frisson I got 😳 delicious.
I was thinking Brett seems at his best when he's just woken up and his conscious mind isn't yet alert enough to much influence his playing.
He sounds glorious in this video.
That is exactly what I've noticed on Brett. That he is a bit nervous or perhaps shy and that shows in his playing. Though he is technically very advanced his sound lacks the clarity of Ray's playing not because he doesn't have the skill but mostly because he lacks the self confidence to play like Ray.
And that confirms what I've always said. That the best soloists are those who have self confident on and off stage. The technique is something that can be taught and improved with a lot of practice. But you need a certain kind of character in order to be able to perform well and show all your technique in front of the audience.
Honestly, I think Ray Chen should do more videos with TwoSet. I feel like they’re just a perfect match together and makes the video 100 times better.
He is a travelling soloist and he is currently programming/managing his own app. So it will be a little hard to fit more videos into his schedule.
Triple pisces trio
Three-Set violin
Imagine collabing with Hilary and Ray at the same time
That would be even more insane
Same
When Ray asked if Brett knew what to do if his string broke, you could just see the horror on Ray's face as he recalled the times he broke his own strings during concerts😂
Iirc, one of them was actually during a Mendelssohn performance.
So I'm a figure skater, that means being on the ice on my own, while the whole arena is watching. It is very intimidating to know that the judges have a replay system, and they can rewatch every little detail in slow motion. What made me more confidence was when I overheard another skater's grandma saying "oh you were so amazing, because you DIDN'T FALL". I mean, it's like saying you are amazing because you can hold a violin. 😂 Then I realized that there are only a few judges, but hundreds of grandparents / family friends / classmates, who have no idea whatsoever about skating, so whatever I do, they will find it amazing. So ever since I go out to the ice like LET'S SHOW THEM SOME AWESOMENESS, because I KNOW that even my worst performance looks awesome for them. And it really helps if you KNOW that the whole arena thinks you are awesome.
Thank you for posting this! I hope Brett sees it!!
This is really excellent advice! Brett needs to see this!
Good analogy.
This is beautiful and very true. Keep being awesome!
Woooah! Super insightful and very well put!
Ray warming up and playing that shit perfectly right after waking up and being in the shittiest state while Brett and Eddy just genuinely cannot fucking believe their ears lmao
Their bed hair, screaming during Smash Bros, Eddy humming the mendy first thing in the morning while waking up Ray and Brett, Two Chens hyping Brett during the 3rd movement and Ray being so detailed about how Brett can improve his playing and be less nervous is definitely the threeset content I signed up for
Two Chen, haha, I love it!
yess.
I love the bed hair!
I love how at 10:58 it looks like Brett completely dials in and starts emitting that "soloist confidence" that Ray was talking about! It might just be me but I feel like he was standing up a little straighter too. They both killed it!!
Brett's playing is sooo good! One can tell he practiced for fourty hours a day every day!!! Can't wait for the 4 mil!!!!
same!
But he was playing smash at one point…. NOT TRUE 40 HOURS SMH
He has been practicing 42 hours a day to prepare for the big concert!!!
Thought this would just be comedy, but Brett's emotional playing was stunning to my pianist's ear- I just closed my eyes and enjoyed listening. Bravo!
This was EPIC. I love any collab they do with Ray. Ray is such a sweetheart (not to mention excellent friend) to coach Brett. (If you watch closely, you can see Ray watching Brett's fingering through each movement they played)
YOU'VE GOT THIS BRETT!
(LOL. The "auto generated" subtitles referred to the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto as "The Mental Symbolic Shepherd". I'm still laughing.)
Ray Chen playing scales perfectly in tune right after waking up. What a Ling Ling.
It was so cool to see Brett actually smiling in the 3rd movement. The playing is amazing, and Brett is totally gonna rock then Mendelssohn.
I honestly LOVE the relationship between these three!! Ray said in his video when he comment on Eddy's Sebelius that he really appreciate Twoset for bringing more people into classical music (I know Ray because of Twoset and I love him so much lol). And Ray himself as a lingling soloist, is a great teacher, big brother, and friend of Twoset! Like in this video, he inspired them with this "new/old" way of practice, and he teaches them techniques and how to get mentally prepared before going on stage, all that. This is such a wholesome relationship!! LOVE YOU GUYS!!
Yep same... Ashamed to say it was TwoSet who introduced me to Ray, Hilary, Oistrakh, Perlman, Janine etc... even Olaf, so my violin knowledge has soared from zero....B&E brought me back to Classical Music with a bang. Agree everything you say. These 3 guys are awesome. I love them too!
Tell me you're obsessed without telling me you're obsessed
@@wakingtheworld I don’t think that’s a shame. It’s no secret that classical music hasn’t been appreciated by young people for a long time. UA-camrs and content creators like TwoSet are doing amazing things with classical music and I think that’s why so many amazing artists are so happy to collaborate with them. They approach classical music with appreciation for the masters while also being careful to explain things to people who are just starting to get into it.
@@wakingtheworld Same! I appreciate them all and I love how friendly and encouraging they are to Twoset, but Twoset if you ever read this you are the OG faves, thank you for opening the door to this classical music world through your own skill and personal flair. Much love
I love how Ray’s bedhead hair is just bouncing so nicely while listening to Brett play 😂
Ray being kind senpai is so heart warming. Brett will be fine. He's practiced a lot and he's confident. He will do great for his concert. I'll be there cheering.
the headbangs, the nods, the excitement from ray and eddy everytime brett play give me pure joy
Ray and Hilary are the two most wholesome big siblings ever!! I'd love an episode of TwoSet and Friends, with both Ray and Hilary. Maybe a pre-Mendelssohn video where Hilary and Ray sub in vlogging for TwoSet as the "audience" to a big concert.
That's true! Though we have seen Ray with TwoSet, and Hilary with TwoSet, we've never seen Ray and Hilary together.
Picture them doing a concerto for 4 violins for 5 mil feat. Hilary & Ray
@@hawkins347 I'll fly in to watch that concert 😍
Oh yeah that'd be absolutely perfect!
@@hawkins347 they have been at 3.8 million subscribers for a long time
I was expecting mostly a funny video of these three hanging out and maybe admiring Ray's playing in the morning, but once the coaching started, it just got to a whole new level of awesome.
Yes! I will also try this - on piano simply to play at church. Their collaboration is inspiring and delightful.
If you can play it half in sleep, you can play it awake.
Nice one...
This should be the next most quoted phrase.
@@eggizgud yes
Ray looks genuinely shocked by realising how much practice Brett was doing behind the scene lol.
I think Brett is the first classical musician whose colour I can clearly identify as someone who didn’t usually have an ear for these things. There’s a particular warmth to the way he plays, and a softness even when there’s a hard edge to the sound or the piece.
Yess I feel that too! Brett has such a fiery warm style of playing while Eddy and Ray's playing ive found to be on the sweeter emotional side.
trueeeeee!
Brett just being entranced, looking like a tired puppy, while watching Ray Chen playing is absolutely hilarious
15:00 minutes of seeing threeset sleeping, playing smash, regretting there life decisions and beautiful violin playing.
Could have not asked for more.
Same here! I absolutely love when they show us small parts of their lives like this! Even if it's just a few minutes in a video it's still fun to see that they're enjoying life while also doing something they all love. They didn't have to, but still did anyways! :)
I know right? A beautiful little window in to three set life :)
Brett is so good and Ray is like a loving brother. All people should be like this to each other in all aspect of life.
Hence proved....musicians who practice 40 hours are INVINCIBLE HUMAN BEINGS...even when they are SACRILEGIOUSLY shaken up from their sleep...!!!
Two things to say:
-I congratulate my buddy Brett for the hard work seen; literally minutes after waking up and being extremely accurate, *Ling ling is gonna have some competition at the concerto*
-Ray is freaking insane, I can't believe he just woke up and remembered every detail of how to improve the play to the point of giving his fingering (yeah, I know sounds funny) to Brett.
Love this kind of stuff.
Currently pulling an all-nighter to cram for law school exams and strangely comforted by Eddie's less than perfect pitch humming, Brett's catatonic morning face and Ray's energetic bed hair.
edit: This comment section is so wholesome! Thank you lovelies 🥰
edit 2: Smashed it with lots of luck from this thread, prayers for lingling's wisdom and the spirit of my ancestors' cow.
Good luck with the exams!
GOOD LUCK!!!
Brett's catatonic morning face is practice for his I'm dying inside face (can't remember his meme name. it's early here)
Great day in the life. Their creativity on full display
GOOD LUCK!!
GOOD LUCK!
Ray Chen is god tier, not just for his artistry immediately after waking up but also for the way he cheers on and advises his friend 🤩
It's funny because you can actually hear how sleepy Brett is when he plays compared to Ray
Also "morning bow movement" is a critically underappreciated joke.
I honestly think Brett just trusting himself will be the thing to bring his playing to that next level.
Rewatching this after Brett's Mendelssohn performance yesterday, and so amazed at his improvement since then. I feel like a proud mom :)
I said the same thing ❤ I’ll never have kids and I feel totally like a proud momma. They both did so well.
You can see the clear improvement from the time Brett played at Curtis to now. He's been putting in a LOT of practice.
Editor-san! Thank you so much for the ThreeSetViolin editing at 10:50 It was seriously perfect with Ray and Eddy both bouncing and headbanging along with Brett trying his hardest!
correction = it was FourSet... i was headbanging too
@@Lucy-ui9cbit’s called Allset
I’m actually amazed at how Brett’s playing evolved since his 2 mil Tchaik! His playing is much more clear and precise. Though he already had an impressive technique, he achieved to improve it to this wonderful level ! I can’t wait to hear the entire concerto, with the orchestra as well 😍
While I wouldn't be surprised if he's improved since then, I suspect the bigger factor is that he's playing with a real orchestra rather than just fooling around with Eddy, along with having an actual audience, so he's taking it far more seriously. Not only does he want to play well for the audience, but he's playing with a room full of professional musicians, and it would be disrespectful to do anything other than his utmost best. If he looks bad, the whole orchestra performance looks bad.
Ray's just on another level. Brett has improved so much but RAY IS JUST INSANE. So refined and his dynamics are just eargasmic
I am already amazed by Ray's warm-up and the idea is fun and Brett did a brilliant job!
But speaking for your neighbour's point of view, I hope the room is soundproof XD
Technically I don't know what the laws about noise where they live are, but if they filmed this on a weekday the neighbours might have already left for work, so that might not have been a problem.
Heck, at least this is better than to wake up in the middle of the night because of your drunkard neighbours shouting at each other because of a random argument haha
It's eight in the morning, most people are awake by then and even if it was a weekend I'm pretty sure it's okay. I mean, most house owners are up mow the lawn already...
@@atriyakoller136 Was talking about the screaming bit when they played Smash Bro, also they seemed to film this in a hotel room...Anyway I was just joking...
@@xandraxandra1437 Was talking about the screaming bit when they played Smash Bro, also they seemed to film this in a hotel room...Anyway I was just joking...
@@helenwong4230 Ah, my bad :) Let's hope the rooms were soundproofed!
😄 I love that Ray is happy to spend some time out of his busy schedule to help out his mates. Good on ya!
I'm here for the bed hairs. They look so cute~🥺💕 Kudos to Maestro Ray for helping Brett in the incoming 4M concert. Love you guys♡
Same
I'm sorry, bed hairs? Do you mean their messy hair from just waking up? I hope that is it, haha.
Yes, bed hair is what your hair looks like when you wake up.
@@charlottethompson6193 When I read it I thought they liked looking through the bed sheets for hairs, then I realised this person maybe a non-English speaker so I thought I'd ask.
Really loved the domestic vlog style of this video, especially the bed heads!
Ray's advice about confidence is really important. In some serious videos, suchs a the Ysaye 3 Masterclass, I felt that Brett wasn't as confident as he could be. Of course, any stage fright and performance anxiety he has is valid. That why I really appreciate this video. These seemingly random and hard training could really help him develop his own confidence and be able to help him a lot more. I am really excited to watch the Mendelssohn live.
Always a good day when twoset uploads…a better day when Ray Chen shows up in the video!
So now we know, finally, that Brett does in fact sleep with his glasses off . . .
Seeing all the people rooting for Brett's 4mil is just heartwarming. You got this!! Cant wait for the concert!
Ikr!! I wasnt here for the 2mil and 3mil celebrations so I'm really enjoying experiencing all the hype and support!!!
Noticing how dark Brett's violin hickey is you can tell he must've practiced A LOT for the concert. Looking forward to the 4 mil Mendelssohn!
I really love the moment like 11:00 you can clearly see Brett went from full PANIC mode to something he himself actually enjoys. He truly nailed every note in that passage. LOVE IT
Even waking up sleepy, Brett unconsciously plays "Scissors" and defeats Ray, truly BRAVO!
Can you imagine the range of emotions their neighbors must have felt that morning lol
Oh come on!! This early in the morning!! Ugh I hate those- wait... oh that's beautiful... please play it again
I just assumed they got a detached Airbnb 😅
Loved seeing Brett actually smiling while playing. He has smiled in videos before, but normally he has this intense look of focus and parts really felt like he's got this. That and Ray Chen being such an awesome role model and friend. Amazing wholesome content!!
Watching Rey how he wants to help Brett overcome his (on stage) anxiety makes me appreciate him more.
Going back here after watching the concerto. Brett's growth amazes me
It’s clearly that Brett has been practicing 40hrs a day! You’ve really done a good job. Trust yourself Brett, we’re always here to support you!
You mean a week? There are only 24 hrs a day 🤣🤣🤣
@@reniadiwijaya8211 are you new to the channel?
@@mojtabarafizadah7702 definitely new. Everyone know it’s 40 hrs a day practice.
@@thunderbirdice yes Ling Ling always practices 40 Hrs a day
@@reniadiwijaya8211 “40 hours a day” is an inside-joke of this channel haha. That’s how Ling Ling (another inside-joke referring to a fictional/supernatural violin master/prodigy) get all their extra practice time :D
the power of bed hair. awesome playing by Brett more than they normally shows i think.
Ray, Hillary and Chloe are best guest they ever introduce to world outside classical musician IMO.
I think it's great Ray did this with Brett. Really showed him that soloist confidence the first round and I think that challenged Brett to give more. I have a feeling if it was just Eddy, they would have joked around much more. Also, the hair was cute.
Here after the 4 Mil drop!
Congrats to Brett and to everyone on this journey, we're so proud of you
It’s funny; ray’s playing is still amazing as always, but is is clear how hard Brett has practiced this, as he almost sounds like Ray’s equal playing a piece in which he specializes. Incredibly what practice can achieve!
Literally CHEERING for Brett, that smile during the 3rd mvt excerpt was EVERYTHING!!!! Freaking slay your performance will be sensational!
The look on Ray's face when he realized Brett actually kept pace with him through that first fast passage was great
I'm incredibly impressed with Brett's playing in this. He's come such a long way from the Tchaik, he must have practiced 40 hours a day for months to get to this level. Good on him for it, can't wait for the livestream!
Ray's dynamic is so freaking refined. Makes it feels like it's what supposed to sound like
YO YOU GUYS BRING THE VIDEOS BACK, Great to see y'all struggling with my piece
“Bulletproofing Brett”-such an entertaining, edifying, and excellent video. Love that ThreeSet energy!
Sing, Ray, SING! And it's just epically funny when both Brett and Eddy's jaws drop when Ray plays that mvt 3 passage! I really loved when Brett smiled in the first mvt 3 section....he so rarely does when he plays, it's a joy to see!
He usually gives a little smile to acknowledge when he makes a mistake
My favorite moment was at 11:00 when Brett suddenly slips into complete focus. The seconds before that he looked so nervous. Then suddenly he slips into the music and nothing else exists.
I love how everyone is so supportive, specially Ray! He gave so much good advice and was super encouraging
I kind of love how this isn't staged and it looks more realistic. Like, twoset would usually just film in that one room, but now we get to see the rest of the place. Really cool. Also would love to see more Ray Chen videos
It’s an AirBnb that they probably got in a convenient place for wherever Ray was headed, with separate bedrooms for the 3 of them.
Watching Brett's face look so out of it while he totally rocks the concerto makes me smile. He's doing really well, and Ray was exactly right with his comment on body language.
Props to Ray for his all out support for the bois! He's our number one hypeman fo sho.
On a side note, this video is very unique and fun to watch. They played until 2am which kinda tipped the balance but hey, 8am is still as fun 😁
Brett used to be so good at using dynamic markings for his musicality (as a child) but somehow he kind of forgets it when he's nervous.....or he has outgrown that and focused more on projection that the p/pp/ppp/>/< parts gets swallowed up by the big sound he's trying to produce.
I did notice his gentle playing coming back with his new violin but I think he's either too nervous or he hasnt shaken off his habit of trying to be big as possible.
I really think Brett's interpretation is still coming off really strong and it's got that quite raw energy that still needs a bit of refining (im sure when he's a little bit more awake, we get to see that refined version more). Ray's version is one of my favourite recordings of the Mendy and I've always associated Mendy with childhood memories and the rollercoaster of emotions as a child (the story in my head for mendy is like this: 1st mvt-trying to convince my _strict & very asian_ parents to buy me toys, 2nd mvt-bargaining with parents using grades, 3rd mvt-getting to enjoy the toy) and it was Ray's recording that made me have that imagery so I've held that imagery as a reference every time i hear mendy. Case in point, here's my opinion on other recordings: Janine's got a juicier mendy so I imagined that instead of a toy, it's letting me out to play outside. Hilary is so on point, she made me think I wanted a lot of toys (like I raided and shoved every toy possible in the shop). Perlman's recording gave me the same vibes as Ray.
Not saying I am comparing but Brett's version to these great guys but he gave me an imagery of naive teenage love, always headstrong, and always impulsive. Which is nice! But it caught me off guard.
Maybe it's got to do with the mic position too. Recordings got a very far mic whereas tsv videos have theirs at a 1-2 m distance so the sound may come off strong.
Anyway, I love that these nerds decided to give us something to think and ponder ♥️♥️♥️
Like.........how Ray holds his chopsticks. 🤔 and how he sleeps like a cocoon but still gets bed head 🤔
Ngl that was pretty nice to read
This comment needs more love.
@@lotusjuice3834 thank you ✨
It's so funny to look at sleepy Brett. He looks so tired which is very relatable, but at the same time he's surprisingly cute even after sleeping nearly five hours which is really a superpower. And his playing here of course... Amazing🥰
Watching them be so sleepy with bed head at the beginning and then alternate between being impressed by each other to just jamming together was such a joy to watch. Smiling the whole video. I’m looking forward to Brett’s performance.
Wait, Brett actually sounds REALLY good
What a backhanded compliment 🤨🤣
I know, he really does. His Tchaik was really good but he sounds brilliant here. Obviously there are still things to work on but he sounds good
@@DanielHernandez-fn8tx indeed. 😊😔
@@sophiawang8096I feel like Brett is a better violinist than eddy
I was smiling for 15 minutes straight. Didn't notice until the vid was over. My cheeks hurt 😂. I'm so excited for this concert! Ray's suggestions were on point! I'm glad to see him back with you guys!
new channel, 4set violin with Ray and Hilary, Brett and Eddie
This video is EXACTLY the moment, when I knew Brett was gonna be just ok with this Concerto❣️
"Yo-Yo Ma, Yo Mama." - Oppa Hyung
The fact that they are mutually helping and supporting each other warms my heart. Not only it's so educational but it motivates everyone else watching this video! I'm on my way to go practice then haha ^^
my jaw DROPPED when brett just went into the solo in the third movement 😦 you can see how truly proud eddy and ray were. watching this after seeing brett play mendelssohn he did SO incredibly well. all three of you guys are just amazing!
I am SO impressed! Brett is doing great. Can't wait for the performance.
I think is it so nice of Ray to take the time, come by and tutor Brett a bit. He's got the concert already practised, but some extra tips will help with nerves and that is really nice to see. (I'm assuming they practised together more than is shown here).
Was not expecting a slumber party, but I was delighted by the whole thing. The B2TSM shirt is just great.
I really love the openness to feedback and humility demonstrated here. A good lesson In always being open to growth.
Threeset is probably the only thing I love more than TwoSet… the fact that they are both offering their violins to Eddy without a second thought. Such a beautiful friendship
And don't forget Brett will be practicing on the Strad that's been loaned to him... Mebee Eddy as well cos he got loaned one too and also needs to practice
It makes me chuckle that Eddy didn't dare accept Ray's Strad even though it was offered
@@humblesparrow lol yea
Ray has fantastically emotive dynamics. And Brett is playing better than ever!
TwoSet collabing with Ray always makes me smile - this rainy day suddenly became sunny.
I absolutely love this video! Ray is such a good friend for doing this crazy idea with our boys! I want more crazy videos like this, next one: pajama party with guests lol
Omg that would be great y really fun JSJSJSJSJ
I love how Eddy plays scissors paper rock with them although he's not even part of the competition 😂 he just can't skip that opportunity to measure his skills with Brett's and Ray's 🤣
The head banging at the 3rd movement was THE best lol 😆❤
What a great exercise to get out of your own head and check how ingrained the music/musicality is in you! Stealing it for my own practice
Okay, so Ray playing while sleepy and still in his PJs with bed head is a thing I never knew I needed in my life. And yet here we are. Also, I am filled with all kinds of warm fuzzies that even though it's to make content, Ray and Eddy are both in an Airbnb, having fun, playing Smash Bros and supporting Brett so much with this. And Brett already sounds SO polished, I know I'm going to be so proud of him and his performance. I can't wait until the show happens, I just wish that I was able to be there in person, but I'll have to enjoy it online. To think all this came from a ridiculous pun that we all took seriously.
Ray's advice to himself to "Don't think, just do!" is what I say to myself whenever I feel the immobilising freeze of social anxiety creeping over me.
Its always a good video when Ray Chen is back
I still can't believe that Brett will be playing with such a huge orchestra, it's going to be epic 😀😀
As an Asian who can’t hold my chopstick properly, thank you Ray for making me feel normal 😂
What a wonderful support system you have BRETT! Don’t forget to enjoy living your dream. Same to you Eddie! Have fun out there. Your hard work will show🎉🎉🎉
Can't believe how excited I am watching two guys eat, play smash and sleep XD.
It’s also so cool to see that Ray and other soloist and classical musicians in general are still normal people that enjoy food and video games
