They've been professionals for so long they forgot how to be beginners.
This needs more likes. Love it!
838 likes but only one comment, now there is two, GUYS HELP!!!
Hahaha so trueee
This is how sight-reading works (for piano at any rate)
And me being a beginner for so long that I don’t know how to be a professional. 😩😭😂
When Eddy just borrow Brett's violin I thought : "That's real friendship." in my music school people treated Theirs instruments like babies.
Wait, you guys don't borrow babies??!?
Gérémy Desmanche exactly
Theirs instrument
Grade 4 me
A2,B1,C3 for violin exam grade 4
TwoSet: play super hard pieces with eyes closed, nails it
TwoSet: plays low level pieces with eyes open, wHoOPS
i get this with osu lol
cant hit anything below AR8 anymore
same for me but im an amateur pianist
Sorenkair same. I also do that with rhythm games
@@shadowdepths2486 how did you learn scales and chords?
@@HelderGriff Ive had a professor for 11 years or so but now im a self-learner
I honestly thought that this ABRSM was some violin-type ASMR
it's an exam system, but love this comment lolz
I entered thinking "What kind of ASMR is this?"
ABRSM is a music exam system established in the UK going through various classical instruments from the grades Initial to Grade 8. I do trinity, taking my grade 2 exam
Imagine a whole orchestra/choir performing Beethoven 9 in pianissimo.
Same.
"Easy."
"Easy."
"Pretty easy."
"Still easy."
"Not easy."
"Romantic."
"Nailed it."
"Nice."
"Practice."
"I think that's it."
"Dodgy."
"Harder than it sounds."
"I know this piece."
"I DONT know this piece."
*TwoSet, you are men of many words.*
ua-cam.com/video/m3aX16KtFkk/v-deo.html secret twoset video!
Maniac Memes *InTeReStInG*
Maniac Memes Can’t believe I somehow fell for that
you forgot "swingt"
“Many” words indeed, the energy in this video is a little different, not so upbeat... I wonder why
"Can't wait for my new violin dude"
Wow you said that RIGHT IN FRONT OF your violin!
I had that exact thought "not in front of the kids!"
And that actually happened
😱
😱
@Yanjun Sun same question ..I need explanations
That fact that Brett said that he doesn’t know the Mendelssohn piece is so cool , little does he know , he will be playing it as a huge performance in a few years 😂
Singapore symphony
It was surely sarcastic. Mendelssohn violin concerto is one of the biggest violin concertos ever.
Of course he knows the Mendelssohn, every violin player learns it. Its almost always learned after Bruch as the "entry" into higher level violin repetoire
@@lik7953 I know it was just sarcasm 🙃
Eddy casually borrowing Brett's violin just lengthened my life span
when brett is playing: eddy dances in the background
when eddy is playing: brett deadpan face
Any instrument: Just sight read
Piano: *nervous sweating*
why is it so hard to sight read on piano?
Guitarist- what is this "sight reading"
@@FlixTwix Two clefs as opposed to one for violin, outrageous amounts of notes in certain pieces that take a fair amount of time to process. With practice and experience Level 6 or 7 pieces become really easy to sightread, but something like Chopin's Etudes, Scherzos, or anything by Liszt will take even a professional a bit of time to process.
Sooooo true!!! Violinists are so easy to flex their sightreading skills.... Put them at a piano, and they will say " WHAAATT!!? Double bars!?? This should be illegal!
Edit: thanks for the likes guys! I never got so much before! :D
@@FlixTwix sigh.... Pain, pain...
I love how Eddy rocks out to everything Brett plays haha
Eddy when Brett plays: vibing noises
Brett when eddy plays: depression in 3...2...1...
"The difference between the master and the novice is that the master has failed more times then the novice has tried."
Let this remind you that it's never simply "talent". They learned starting from Level 1 too and it's their HARD WORK got them to the end.
That is a beautiful quote that I have never heard before! Thanks! I needed that right now!
wise words
@@nellapenelope3240 I agree even though it hit me like a brick when I first heard it haha. I'm glad it could help! Don't be afraid of the mistakes!
@@nellapenelope3240 same, to be on a task for hours and with a chance to get it wrong is very depressing but you have to get through and try even if you fail
@@LiquidDiamondFlute thanks! Yes, it does hit you somewhat. XD
*that awkward moment when TwoSet plays one of the pieces you've spent a full year working on perfectly on the first try*
I
KNOW
RIGHT i just
What pice
It's not their first try, they've played and memorized these pieces before in massive orchestras or on their own
yes omg 😭😭😭
Relateable.... Same with other people I know. They just sightread stuff like pudding, and I'm sitting there like:
It's crazy how they'll play these gorgeous pieces and put their heart and soul into it but the second they finish they're just like "cool" and move on to the next one 💀
Because they are so casual and have a bunch of fun with playing music and running the channel, I sometimes forget that these guys are legit professionals and in no way are the pieces they play *easy.* This is one of the videos where all their hard work and experience really shine through. It's one of those things that looks like you can do it so you try it and you suck because of that difference in skill. I wish there was a second subscribe button :'(
@A.H Well I obviously know that they *are* professionals. I don't literally forget it and become surprised whenever they mention it. It's just that they don't show it off all the time. It's fun and casual and they don't constantly try to show off their skill just for the sake of showing off. This is one of their videos that show the more technical side of playing the violin and I just wanted to show my appreciation for their craft. As someone who doesn't play the violin or any other instrument, it's cool to see all that goes into playing the violin on a professional level and what that exactly means.
If you really want to add to their subscribers, make another Google account. :D
👍👍👍👍👍👍
12:09 anyone knows this piece hihi
Grade 1 - 8 : seriously sightread (mostly)
DIPABRSM++ : Flex and chill
I think they've probably played some of these pieces before so they were a little easier to pick up again.
@@TheTransformerCrazed yep, agree (:
For the famous pieces they just memorise them
@@henryn5445 exactly. Then you don't have to worry about your sheet music or your music stand. You also can count and know when to come in if your playing with an orchestra, I would imagine. I know I was a vocalist, and while contemporary music is easier, I knew the lyrics and all of the verses of close to a thousand songs. It's easier to just memorize them than sightread lyrics, and of course you can't perform with sheet music at all as a vocalist.
@@IorekBear92 Well, I'm not going to argue with you about it. I'm sure different singing venues have different criteria, and sometimes the audience doesn't see you, or if you are singing while playing piano it would be easy. I could have used sheet music when recording in the studio, but I sang in choir, as a lead in theater, and with a microphone in front of a band, and in all of those places you really couldn't have a music stand or sheet music.

Amos Lee such an underrated comment
Amos Lee ur amazing
Amos Lee u seem 2 know what i am gonna do next
Brett: 💯 sightreading skills
Also Brett: From clarinet quin-K four five naah..
Sacril boi: I can play 15 notes a second
Twoset: We can get 3 master degree certificates in less than a 20 min video
This makes me wonder how many if any certificates they’ve officially tested for.
@@AlfredEiji don't need any if you have a music degree with a major in violin
Mr35diamonds then what are these tests for? genuinely curious
@@easyteh4getperson they're for middle class parents to put a certificate on their wall and brag to other middle class parents that they are superior because their child has Grade 3 violin and the other child only has Grade 2 😉 in reality it's just a way of creating a framework for the process of learning an instrument, giving students a goal to work towards and an indicator of how far they've progressed. Grade 8 is often a prerequisite for music degrees or teaching courses but the others aren't really 'for' anything except giving yourself motivation to achieve your goals and move on to the next stage.
How do you know the "sacril boi" can't do the same? Being prejudicial is always easy....
I love how they're so comfortable playing each other's violins and it's like second nature to them at this point since they've known each other so long. I aspire to gain a friend like that. But none of my friends play instruments so that might take a while.
Felt.
I actually have a friend that switches recorders with me. As I bought my new traverse flute she brought hers to our rehearsal and we tested each others instruments. Now I realize how fantastic this is ❤
They need this kind of video to remind us that THEY ARE PROFESSIONAL.
Brett: (calmly) I know this piece
*messes up beginning*
Brett: (calmly) I don't know this piece
I've never seen anybody look as soulless as Brett playing "Fish Cakes and Apple Pie"

Oh lmao
The way these two just breezed through my exam pieces 🥺
Fun fact: today are the 180 years since Paganini's death. And today is the Paganini's day, organised by the "Società dei concerti" of Parma

paganini be with you
Maybe celebrate his birth and not his death lol
F for Respect.

"I know this piece"
"I don't know this piece"
lmao
I laughed my ass off at that
I love that
I'm still amazed at how much comedy you guys can pack into the single words after each piece
You know someone is a true musician when they start dancing while playing
No one:
Literally no one ever:
Brett: sight rieding
Eddy: _gently swinging_
eddy: comment which grade you think you are
me, a nonviolinist:
grade A comment
When you realise they just sightread beyond diploma level music and made it look kind of easy. Damn, they were right... they do practice 40 hours a day. I need to sort my life out 😂 there are so many memes that I forgot that 2 set r INCREDIBLY skilled musicians.
I love how Eddy's genuinely vibing to everything and Brett's just here to get it done with
I think the higher levels are actually easier for them because they basically memorized the whole piece...
Yep, I'd like to see them sightread some of the ones they don't already know. Also this overview neglects that the standard of playing is expected to improve significantly, especially for the diplomas, so even if the pieces aren't that much harder the level of finesse required is.
This type of video is my fav. Please flex it more hehe
When your Abrsm exam is cancelled so you watch two set play the pieces instead
noob if you had rcm exam you'd do it through a zoom call
@@benjaminyaary8419 but wouldn't it be harder for the examiner to grade the examinees because from my experience, tone and emotion or interpretation is pretty hard to hear through the zoom calls, also the acoustics would be a problem for many as not all examinees have *that* good of a room... :) also, it actually is harder to study the pieces right now through online classes sooo... welp that's just an opinion of someone who takes exams yearly 🙃
Jess D mine was cancelled-_-
fr
My violin oral is cancelled :/
that awkward moment when you came here to see what level you are expecting to be 3-4 but realize you can just barely pass 1.
I know they both can play some piano and that it isn't their expertise but it wiuld be cool watching them do the propper grading for piano too
I think this list seems great. These are the pieces played by myself over the years for my exams. For the grades I skipped, please add in for me.
For some others I forgot their names.
G1: (skipped)
G2: (2011-12 syllabus) Military Minuet (A2), The Sandman (B2), Ba ba du bah (C1)

Bach Musette in D
Clementi Sonatina in C
Mozart Rondo alla Turka
Mozart K 545
Mozart Theme from Piano Concerto no. 21
Tchaikovsky Swan Lake
Beethoven Fur Elise

Handel Largo
Mozart Fantasia in D minor
Mozart Fantasia in C minor
And many more
And currently learning:
Beethoven Appassionata Sonata
Bach C minor Keyboard Partita
sometimes i forget the reason why the piece sounds so robust, beautiful and effortless is bc the musicians are talented and hardworking little shits this also makes me realise that i am a talentless piece of trash that has not practiced
Yep, you said it!
I think practice is much more important than talent.
Skill through practice >>>>> Talent

when u remember that brett and eddy did their fellowship grade exam when they were 12........
when did they say this?
@@Markful they said it in one of their videos but i'm sorry i forgot which one! it was a very offhanded/casual remark in one of their vids and i was just stunned that they dropped that fact so casually since that's an insane achievement!
@@Markful it might be in this video, at 3:30 ua-cam.com/video/rA-63x_UEPc/v-deo.html

I agreeeee!!
Me too!
True 😂 😂 😂
11:52 is when you dont know the answer, then you look at ur teacher's face and she said "why u looking at my face, there is no answer in my face"
Best part of the video!! I laughed so hard!!
My teacher’s a he... and yes I do that, but he just laughs.
Ahahahahahahaha so true omg your comment made me burst out laughing. Nailed that look 100% XD
when u realize that violin difficulty level is an exponential growth every grade
Everyone else : Ah imma take the ABRSM, one grade a year (which is very very difficult, and probably means 40 hours practise everyday)
Brett and Eddy : "Let's try and see how far we can go" *aces the whole test from grade one to getting the license in 17 minutes*
Try 4 months
Of course,, once they get to the upper grades, they probably already know the pieces...
uh, i tend to take two terms per test, and i barely practice(i'm getting to higher grades now so its a bit harder but like, if you have the training its not that hard)
I think you need to play the entire piece for the exam, not just lines. (I don't know tell me if I am wrong)
This is just basically Brett and Eddy lowkey showcasing their skills. I sometimes forget that these guys are pro and can play superbly well. I love these guys! Hahaha!
Highkey*
I love how everybody’s talking about the playing but nobody’s talking about eddys new Violin
I forgot about that!! Asdfghjkl
I feel like I'm going to miss hearing his old one
I honestly never though one of them would get a new violin (dunk know why) cuz it feels like the ones they had/have where almost as big of a part of 2set as brett and Eddy since they are the actual violins.
But as long Eddy likes the violin it's good :)
Really? I missed it! But it’s sound a lil bit different,I thought i was misheard
Aisyarah Andina he said he can’t wait for his new one
It blows my mind how sometime one violin can create what sounds like two complete separate sounds within the same instrument. Almost like oif you listened with your eyes closed you would think there was two instruments being played simultaneously
Eddy couldn't possibly be more distracting. LOL
And as distracting as Eddy is, Brett is totally without a reaction. What a team.
The way they would look impressed after the other nailed a particularly hard passage is endearing. Get you some friends like that haha
Alternate Title: TwoSet flexes for 17 minutes (with all the practice they have done)
TwoSet: Sightreads 3 Grade 5 pieces plus a Grade 7 piece perfectly
Me: Cries in months of practice and still being worse
16:20 where Eddy gives mad respect to Brett's incredible playing!
Can we just appreciate how Brett instinctively handed Eddy his violin?
Kousei Arima when?
When?
17:22
@@maryanntamasan3585 15:04
That's some serious trust right there.
Did Brett and Eddy just flex on us for 17:22 minutes straight?
They play the higher grades so much better than the beginner ones lol
ling ling could play all of those pieces perfectly at the same time
Of course!! That’s Ling Ling
All jokes aside ... no matter what he’s playing... grade 1 or 8, Brett has some of the loveliest most beautiful phrasing I’ve ever heard ...
I love his tone,so effortless
Brett's vibrato is also absolutely beautiful
It's so warm and smooth...like hot chocolate on a snowy day.
Eddie is like iced tea on a hot day.
@@Tirryna that is surprisingly accurate! I also thought that Brett always has this warm, cozy feel to his music. Eddy is completely different. He is crystal clear, and bright. This just shows you how diverse music can be!!
Bro some of the early songs only have like one phrase lmao
Brett has now become the opposite of Alma, he turns flats to naturals.
More people need to see this comment lmfao
I hope i will see this meme on subreddit today 🤲🏻
Cause he's a NATURAL
I was the 100th like now more people sees this
XD good one! Like this comment EVERYBODY!!! Twoset needs to see this! XD
It's even more impressive knowing that you've finished this when you both were 12-13 😳
its times like this where i think theyve been hinting mendelssohn violin concerto
Brett plays high level pieces: i practice 40hrs a day no fear
Brett plays for kangaroos and ez pieces: I'm NeRvOuS
And it wasn't even his violin, it was Eddy's...
same here... have the FRSM diploma and lower level pieces freak me out.

To TwoSetViolin: Have you tried the ABRSM UK Jazz test???? Part of this test is for the musician to improvise where there are literally blank sections in the music, to fill in the empty bars with your own melody while paying in the existing key with the existing chords or chord progression.
Jazz solos are really fun once you get used to them. I’d like to see two set do something with jazz/jazz improv for sure
You can just kill me now thank you.
@@zurich5607 I play a ton of jazz and I think its cringe when classical musicians try it because it sounds so awkward. Still appreciate their effort and the fact that they gave it a chance though.
British jazz musicians are on another level the past few years like right off the top of my head tho i can only think of alfa mist XD
@@PeterGriffin-kb2hf can actually relate
Wow TwoSet’s sightreading skills are on point!! I am 11 years old, still going through grade 6 XDDD, I play the Handel Sonata one...which I still sound like crap after 5 months of practicing...ugghhhhhh...I love you TwoSet!! You are the best!!
watching Eddy's facial expressions and dancing while Brett is playing. OMG!!!! hahahahah
I am so impressed by Eddy and Brett. Did you notice that the harder the pieces got, the more they closed their eyes and just felt the music? They didn't even use the notes as more than support. I love this channel so much!!
That's also kinda because they have played all the harder pieces many times and know it well by heart. I think they didn't know the beginner pieces which is why they had to sight read them.
I was very impressed as well! Excellent musicians. But the eyes closed was probably when they knew the piece already and didn't have to read the music. :)
They know the pieces and its called concentration
Yeah the first ones they had to keep their eyes open to sightread.
I was about to mention the same! Absolutely true.
There are so many comments that are like “sometimes I forget that they’re actually professionals” and I’m here like
“HOW DO YALL FORGET THAT?”
right?
Honestly I forget that sometimes. But it’s only because they make everything look so effortless, it gives me a false sense of understanding at what level a professional should be.
My only level of music is fifth grade clarinet. I watch to learn about music and because their raw charisma is utterly charming. Since they’re so casual, I also forget that they’ve played at the White House and massive orchestras.
Basically, for me, they are so amazing that I forget what it means to be a professional musician.
@@Alex-is8hk
...and they also look down on themselves.
They have a lot of self-deprecating humor... But also, so many of their videos are them dicking around
This is pure unadulterated pleasure listening to and watching these musicians perform. Brett and Eddy are wonderful violinists with a gorgeous tone. Their charm and humor is icing on the cake.
I love how the last one is Bach. That confirms that Bach has become the beggining and the end of the life of every musician.
Nobody:
Brett: “Corelli-19”
Video: ABRSM pieces
Me: *WAR FLASHBACKS*
It’s worse since I’m haven’t finished the grades
I should really practice
Imao Imagine NOT using the Suzuki books. smh 🤦♂️
I feel you bro. I am at Grade 7 and then they just sight read it all. I am like damn I should practice.
I am traumatised from my Grade 3 exam. I remember now why I said I am not doing grades again after grade 2 15 years ago. Now I am prepping for grade 4 for purely for technical learning. I am NOT taking grades again!
my grade 6 piano exam ruined me. 2/10 in sight reading was not what I hoped for 🥺
Imagine if Brett & Eddy _actually_ recorded an album. Our brains would explode. 🤯🤯🤯
Let's start with Brett playing Tchaikovsky and Mozart pieces bc he does them _so_ artfully and Eddy doing Bach and Debussy bc he's super amazing with Bach and LOVES Debussy. 😍😍😍
Guys, let's do this!!!
Well, they did publish their lofi music on Spotify... but I have a feeling they'd be too self-critical to do a classical album. Besides, albums don't make much money so it might not make economic sense.
*Fantasia has entered the chat* 👀
"What Grade do you think you are?"

I was about to cry at 5:51
That piece is really powerful and full of emotions.
I felt it.
even in playing piano it surprises me that playing simple pieces is much harder than playing harder pieces especially when you got accustomed to playing hard pieces already. so i kinda understand how it feels lol
Eddy and Brett: Flying through grades in a matter of minutes
Me: stares at my pile of repertoire that I’ve been working on for the past year with 40 hours of practice every day

I'm part of the non-musician gang here in the twoset fandom but ehhhh I'm to give you my support. Keep practicing! You can do it
Same, I have my trinity exam for grade 2 this year and it's postponed 😭😭😭 I'm honestly tired of practising the same thing all the while😬
Ikr , Brett played my piece so well but he escaped the hard part , actually maybe it's just hard for me , this is why I cannot be ling ling cause I'm still at grade 6 after like two years *sigh* shouldn't have stopped violin just for my major exam
I've been studying ABRSM's program for years now...To think that the pieces I had to spend months practicing, these guys could just sightread them...
I need to practice.
Hey, at one point, they were exactly where you are, if you keep going you can do what they are doing! Just gotta practice 40 hrs a day
40 hours a day, :)
It helps if the piece you're sight reading is one you've practiced before. XD
Eddy and the Drunken sailor-my neighbors must think I’m crazy I’m in bed laughing my head off. 😂🙈🙈😜
Nobody will ever read this but I just have to say that I don‘t like listening to Bach. But when Eddy played that fuge...that was somehow touching. Now I can‘t stop listening to this piece. Thank you, Eddy, and congratz for actually bringing me to finally enjoy something by Bach :‘)
No, really?! And I thought I'd comment how much I love it every time I hear Bach. Different strokes indeed. What kind of music or which composers do you like/prefer?
I didn't read it!
I love Bach too, but I think I know what you mean...
If you like piano at all, try Glenn Gould playing Bach Goldberg variations. If I could only listen to one piece of music the rest of my life it would be this.
“gently swinging” *sways side to side*
*AGGRESSIVE SWINGING*
I’ve been conditioned to accent the like button even before being asked to
Yees
I, too, salivate any time I see a TwoSet upload.
You must SLAP LI- wait wrong channel
Ah yes. Classical conditioning
lmao the way he just snatched brett's violin
This is one of my favorite episodes of 2set. I just love hearing them play, period. ❤❤❤🎻🔥🔥🔥👍🏽💯

*eddy plays violin*: _e string squeaks_
eddy: let me use Brett's violin
_e string still squeaks_
MY e string squeaks. all the time.
any sponsors for a new violin and a lifetime supply of strings?
Hello, I'm a non violinist. Is this common to most violins? Are old strings the only/usual reason?
Is anyone going to mention how much emotion they played with on the harder pieces?? That's more emotion than I think I even have!!
Watching this episode like 10 times and it's still amazing 🤩
Love that *Swinging* in the Rain :-)
I love how they are doing vibrato even on like the lower grades because their ability to phrase music just comes naturally
Are you really trying to imply that vibrato has anything to do with phrasing??? LOL!!!!!!! Oh boy....
@@adameves5970 i mean it kinda does, no?
@@adameves5970 why not? Vibrato can be considered phrasing
@@Skelliiie The way I see it, vibrato is just applying an effect to a single note. I don't think it has anything to do with phrasing.
