Dam. Ty
Thank you so much!!
It is so good to see that there are other people who aren't discouraged to start learning an instrument when they're older. I'm a teenager, and I just got a violin yesterday, and today I started to learn how to play it. Thank you Twoset for encouraging me to learn a new instrument.
The Piano and Violin have always been two of my favorite instruments. I've always wanted to learn piano, too. But lessons are expensive and buying a piano, even a used one is also super expensive. Maybe by 27 I'll be able to join the piano gang too ^^ Good luck with your violin learning.
Good luck with your violin and welcome to the club of people learning instruments at "older ages" :)
Last year I started learning to play the cello at 23 years old, and am still going, hope your journey goes well too!
@@floralcat7328 and @Mangofretchen Thank you so much for the encouraging replies. I really appreciate it!
My mom started to learn cello when she was in 50s and she is still playing it (in her 60s). There is no best age to learn something new. Good luck to you, noah!!
viola players sobbing
I'm finished practicing, I deserve to watch twoset.
nobody is ever finished practicing.
never ever.
ling ling tech
Did you already practice 40 hours?
No fucking way
Bret and Eddy going nuts over figuring out their scissor, paper, rock habits just made my day. 😂
brett's laugh at 4:29 😂
Honestly it just gave me such Sam and Dean vibes
“Experts believe we may have evolved to catch other people’s yawns as a way of displaying empathy for one another and deepening those social bonds. So it makes sense that further research discovered that yawns are more contagious the closer you are to someone.”
I’m empathetic enough to yawn just seeing the word, even when I try not to😂
Am I the only one who doesn't yawn when others do?!😅
@@dev3403 gee, we must be psychopaths
Me in the math class:
At least that bird isn't savaging them while they play. I have a conure. Its a coinflip whether or not he's going to sit there and listen, or start trying to violently kill me. Been really good practice for jumping octaves and dramatic range changes as I dodge a murderous bird.
This is hilarious😂
Me in class: *tries to focus*
Two set: 🌝
I CANT RESIST
Tha emoji is lookin different
the emoji looks like twoset looking psychotic and them making us watch the new video instead of practicing 😃👍
@@h3izouu17 LMAO SORRY it looks like a “hehe” emoji on iPhone 😭😭 dang I didn’t think bout that 😂
@@walshar2705 ^
Finally y'all admitted it. The piano is in its league of its own ;)
99th, like
edit 200th like
Yes
Piano can play everything for every other instrument lol
Percussion, you got it.
String pieces, yep.
Literally any other instrument in an orchestra, I got this.
a nice way to say alone lol
my CS teacher once started a lesson with "is a piano a string or a percussion instrument?" and then after we'd all said our answers he said, "the correct answer is yes." it was a lesson about truthiness in Python, so I guess it fit.
What kind of counter strike you are playing?
@@Heikki_Virtanen I can't tell if this is sarcasm or you truely thought CS in context is counter strike...

So fun to see other adults start to learn an instrument too! Started the accordion here about 2 months ago, at age 37. And a big thanks to Brett and Eddy for making me practice every day and making classical music approachable for newcomers!
Have fun with your accordion! I, too, am an adult learner. I came upon Brett and Eddy a couple of years ago, and they were the biggest motivators to get me back to playing my violin! I played for 8 years as a kid, and am now 59. I really love it. I am grateful to TwoSet Violin for sharing their love of classical music in a fun way. They always make me smile!
Joining Piano Gang at almost 25 now. Tried to learn at 19, but didn't have one to practice with at home in between lessons. Good luck to both of you

Liszt easy piano? YEAH! EASY!
They mean :

- EASY to break your sanity through the piano,
- as EASY as fighting a Tyranosaurs with nunchucks,
- etc
Easy to break your sanity lol
Liszt makes me insane XD
Exactly- Easy

I used to win rock paper scissors every time against my husband when I noticed he always threw rock first. It went on for years! I guess I blew it though...he realized something fishy was going on when I would win EVERY SINGLE TIME and I would have the exact same reaction to my win 😫
Dear TwoSet, thank you so very much for making classical music popular again! I have been watching for years now. As a classical wind musician who just earned his bachelors in music performance (bassoon) I enjoy every video! Looking forward to whatever the 4 million subscriber concerto/sonata will be!
Same
Brett is going to play Mendelsohn VC I believe…
@@susanbryant6516 I love that concerto! I’ve played it before!
Wow congrats!! So happy for u~
@@veronicachow thank you! It was a long journey but so worth it! Being able to perform is a bit difficult with the pandemic. Looking forward to when things improve one day. It’s not perfect yet but I do enjoy going to rehearsals once a week again with a local orchestra. It has been fun being able to perform again after not being able to do so for 7 months now.
I love how Brett lost it at the scissors paper rock post🤣🤣🤣🤣
5:46 rip editorsan 🥲
I joined the piano gang when I was 28. It's been two years and I can play grade 2 pieces. Slow and steady progress gets the win.
Congrats! Keep going :)
That's amazing! Are you learning by yourself? I've been teaching my mom and she's at grade 2 as well (:
@@dianabanana7394 I have a teacher :)
@@youidiotbleh that's great! You got this 💪🎹🎶
I think nowadays the piano is often classified in the category of "keyboard instrument," including things like the organ, the harpsichord, etc. After all, we don't tend to say that the organ is a woodwind
Am I the only one who doesn’t play an instrument (and is confused half the time of what they’re talking about), but watches just for Brett and Eddy (idk I just like their personalities and their dynamic).
there are a ton, i watched them before i play one
Same here
You are not alone in that 😂
Their*
They're really magnetic personalities and loads of fun to watch shoot the shit together. But playing brings a new level of appreciation to their comedy, especially if you play in group settings.
As a percussionist, it was funny hearing Eddy and Brett talking about polyrhythms
Bruh is it just me or does Eddy's hair actually look more contained today?
Nah, it's not just you, I feel that too.
haha aww, that first one reminds me of my bird, she sadly died, but she used to sing when i would practice my violin and piano, it got kinda annoying somtimes but it was funny how she would get louder as i got louder lol. And she would sit on my shoulder :) love you guys! keep up the great work :)
they say the closer two people are, the more contagious their laugh can be for the other. maybe they are just so close that even the very fake yawn caused eddy to actually yawn.
7:45 I'm joining the violin gang at 27! 😆😆😆
Eddy tidying his hair is sooooo cuuuute
A friend of mine who plays piano (really well!) says it's percussion and I do not agree. We were actually "comparing notes" and trying to prove why it's a string or percussion instrument.
"The hammers hit the string, so it's percussion."
"But it's the strings that are making the sound. So technically it's strings."
"You don't pluck the strings, you press the keys."
"Oh, so anything that you press is percussion?"
Seriously, we were ready to debate about it for hours, but his younger brother stopped us from going any further.
"Let's just call it the keyboard section, okay."
What do y'all think?
- Ana
Keyboard?
But... It's percussion??!
@@thairinkhudr4259 Well, wouldn't it have been in Strings b/c of the Harpsichord? That is classified as Strings, I believe. And the Piano/pianoforte -- "clavicembalo col piano e forte" (loosely translated to "the strong and quiet keyboard instrument." Literally, a "harpsichord that can play soft and loud noises") -- came from the harpsichord. Correct me if I'm wrong.
- Ana
The problem is this notion that everything needs to fit neatly into one of these categories, which are pretty arbitrary. A lot of people get really hung up on what they learned in grade school music class, it seems.
Why can't be both?
I mean, if you slap the bass or the guitar that doesn't mean it's percussion, but if the guitar had a hammer to make the strings vibrate and it was part of the instrument itself, then it could be Percussion and Strings, because the sound is made when the strings are hit
Also it is just a way to classify the instruments according to how the sound is made, if something uses air to move strings that would be both.
As a person still struggling with liebestraum, that liszt easy piano book thingy killed me
Looks like we're in the same boat. That 2nd cadenza is freaking killing me!
@@PianoDawg1620 I'm already struggling with the piu animato con passione part
@@History_In_The_Making If you got through the first cadenza, you're all set for the entire piece in my opinion. The difficulty in that Animato section is projecting the melody over the broken chords. Timing and evenness issues can be fixed with a metronome.
@@PianoDawg1620 Thanks for the advice! 😄
@@History_In_The_Making No problem. What I suggested was what I thought was difficult with that particular section. Difficulty is quite subjective in this piece.
Liszt-easy, for beginners.
Piano gang: *LET’S GET ‘EM*
I'm a pianist, and the title made my soul like Brett's deadpan face for eternity, life is so much more depressing.
Brett talking about 4 against 3: "it's really hard actually." Me who has been practicing it for 2 weeks and still feel like it's wrong every time: "thank you that helps 🥺🥺"
I been practicing Fantasie Impromptu coming up two years, and still messing up either the 4s or the 3s when I'm focusing on the other hand.
4 against 3 is ok, but 5 against 4-NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
@@aliceko4695 Grieg "Wedding day at Trollthaugen"
@@veronicaredeemed omg
@@aliceko4695 I learned it a lot earlier / find it generally much easier than the Impromptu, but it does have those 5s. And really threw me off for a while!!
I'm wondering if they conciously put the beethoven music sheet at the back to show that they just stopped practicing to read some reddit contents
🤣🤣🤣
I think it's just there. I mean, there's always music out around my house, it's nothing special.
Brett’s laugh at 4:28 🥰🥰🥰
i jsut started learning piano 8 months ago at the age of 37, i stumbled on your videos and now practice 40 hours a day just like LingLing thanks for the push
They used prelude at the end, is this a sign? 🤔
*_Petition for Twoset to give us a hint, What is this the prelude to? Are we having a full composition?_*
I literally yawned after Eddy
Same lol
I yawned looking at this comment lmao
5:32 omg that's my meme. Omg That's my Meme. OH MY FUGING GOD THAT'S MY MEME. I was not expecting that at all what dueyhdgshaa 😭
Technically, the piano is a struck chordophone.
Dont do that 😖😅
Georgia doesn’t actually make a lot of peaches and it isn’t our biggest industry.
3:24 we all know what Eddy was thinking of....👀
?
There are pieces that bow the piano I think, if i recall correctly Henry Cowel's "The Banshee" has bowed parts? Correct me if I'm wrong. Also Piano Guys in "What Makes You Beautiful" bowed the piano strings. It sounds like a very long, muted version of the plucking
Yes! Also in "Angels we have heard on high". In The Banshee I don't know what is that...
I love that bird! My rabbits always fall asleep during my ballet class because they love the music. One gets super excited when I move the laptop to where I set it for dance , like, "it's time, it's time!"
8:15
ayyyyyy that's my post
4:17 editor-san is ruthless 😂
5:59 Liszt did compose rather "easy" pieces in his 60s or later (especially in 1880s), however... although it may look easy, the music itself is sometimes hard to understand (e.g. Bagatelle Without Tonality).
the last sentence sounds liek something watchmojo would say
watch the watchmojo videos on this channel
On the subject of small hands: I'm glad you mentioned that hand span is also important. As a small-handed guitar and piano player, I've often been told I must struggle with power chords (guitar) and reaching across more than three keys on a piano. When I demonstrate that I can play stretchier-chords, people are genuinely shocked and warn me against injuring myself 😂 Edit: Not that I'll be playing Rachmaninoff or Paganinianytime soon!
Me! Small hand guitar gang and I'm STRUGGLING OMFG
@@magalydegollado8659 Do you play acoustic and/or electric guitar? I started out on the former, but switched to electric as it's much more comfortable for smaller hands. Which chords are you finding the hardest?!
I play acoustic, and really any time I have to bar my fingers, lmao
I have tiny hands and what feels like no finger strength
@@magalydegollado8659 Barre chords are amongst the 'nightmare chords' for We, The Small-handed-and-fingered, particularly when it comes to playing them on acoustic and classical guitars. With stubborness and determination, and some luck, they are possible to play. At first my fingers just struggled to get into position, but with practice (read: stress, frustration - haha), I was able to play them (up until the 8th fret only). I still have off-days when I can't produce a buzz-free barre chord!
How long have you been playing guitar? I found analysing my technique (reducing shoulder to finger tension), changing the angle I hold my guitar, my arm, wrist and my left hand made barre chords a *little easier/more comfortable. Regarding finger strength, it will come with Lingling's favourite word, practice - gentle practice, i.e. building up the time you spend practicing, but possibly starting out with a much shorter practice time than 40 hours XD
I'll send you positive thoughts, so you'll have some barre-chord success!
(Sorry for the lengthy post. Sometimes I say a little in a million characters!)
Im coming on 12 years, but I will (ashamedly) admit that plateaued around year 5-6
I've kept it up, but I shy away from anything too advanced because I don't want to suck, lol
I will say though, Twoset has motivated me to practice more advanced pieces, but its a slow climb
I started learning violin a few weeks ago and it's so much fun, love it 🥰
(yess, even tho it sounds horrible when I play)
Welcome to the violin gang!
@@dang_vill3929 I love it here 🥰
the other week my piano teacher gave me a load of free music (hell yeah!!!) and was like 'out of all my students you're the only one who i think will be able to play these' and like, im honoured but theres no way im playing liszt concert studies or rachmaninoff sonata no 1 any time soon
Awww, bless. Brett & Eddy have to share polyrhythms to be able to complete them.
(Laughs in Piano Gang)
That was very wholesome guys! Thank you, just what I needed before I go practice
prelude at the end 🥺
7:20
My right hand that struggles with octaves on the piano: **cries**
yawning is so weirdly contagious i yawned every time the word yawn came up and every time brett or eddy yawned
(i yawned again typing this comment 😂
I yawned reading your comment XD
"i gave my peaches from.. Georgia [clutches heart dramatically]"
Eddy that middle part looks amazing on you! Pls do that more often
I'm cuted badly by Brett's hiccup. And the PRELUDE!!! Show my respect to editorsan.
Now let's talk about:
Ling Ling - Easy Violin. 🎻🎻
2:35 oh wow, I would've loved to watch Eddy's lesson with Hilary 😊 if only they recorded it
Yo your channel is popping off. Deserved.
I’m getting tickets to the virtual world tour for my next purchase 😄 thank you guys for always making videos that bridge different kinds of nerds together and show people that classical music isn’t just for stuffy old folks!
Yes! Not just for...what did Sharon Osborne (America's Got Talent) say - "greasy old men" ... But what do you expect from the wife of the 72 year old
Prince of Darkness?
I'm learning a Liszt piece right now and I started to keep track of minor wrist/finger injuries or forearm strain. the tallies are more than I thought they would be.
Chopin laughs at your 4:3 polyrhythms and raises you 7:6
As someone learning Liszt's Consolation No 3, polyrhythms have emotionally scarred me.
I just had a mental breakdown, but im fine now thanks to you guys!!
The prelude at the end 😭❤️
9:09 TwoSetYawn!
Just found this vid in my notifications right after I finished my (40 hour) violin practice :D
It's crazy the amount of power Brett and Eddy have over us with just a yawn... I know 99% of us also yawned when they did at the end!
For those of you who don’t know Ling Ling is a fictional character who practices 40 hrs a day and never makes mistakes when playing
ling ling is real
ling ling is god
I've been learning violin for two years now all thanks to TwoSet!
Yay!
For the violinists that can't relate to how sacrilegious that book is, think of that nonexistent book "Violin Beginners: Learn Paganini's 24 Caprices in 24 Hours"
Hi, Brett & Eddy! I really enjoyed hearing your own music played during the outro. It is so lovely. 🥰🥰🎼🎵🎶🎻🎻
prelude as bg music huhu 💙 hope to see you guys post a video of playing it together one day.
Now I'm really curious if there's a Brettina and Edwina doppelganger out there somewhere...
A bit of a high chance maybe.
Another great LingLing40Hours. I appreciated a bit of Prelude at the end too
Twosetpolite always finds a way to make people's day happier, they have inspired me to start my own channel👋👷🙏
now eddy knows how to win
Brett's laugh is the cutest and Eddy's laugh is like him laughing at something incredibly funny! 🤣
Me at age 34, started learning about music that I skipped in school (due to getting bullied). Feels like I'm learning music theory in reverse order though (Using UA-cam).
My order: first learned Computers, then Programming (Visual Studio)->Drawing/Colors (GIMP)->3D Modelling (Blender)->Photography/Lighting->Recording/Editing (Blender)->Music (from manually Copying notes from Sheets using MuseScore 3)->LMMS (Tempo, notes more music mixing)-> And finally a Midi keyboard to learn piano, where I am currently, waiting for the Midi keyboard I ordered yesterday.
All this just so I can do every step in a game myself (life goal since childhood), such a mind-blowing mess to remember.
I know you guys miss touring but I really appreciate the fact that you're doing a virtual one this time. I've been wanting to go to one of your tours for so long but couldn't because it would be way to expensive and hard to get to. Thank you for being so flexible and doing something I've never seen before!
You killed my COUSINAHHH
4:21 but when they compete with Chloe Chua they BOTH lost
"Brett and Eddy when I ask for time off"
- Editor-San 2021
@6:16 - in case anyone here is wondering, the modes in this meme all have the same key signature (no sharps or flats) but start on different notes. (For example: Playing a scale from g to g with all white keys gives you g mixolydian.)
Now that Brett and Eddy are aware, their Rock, Paper, Scissor will never be the same again...
or not.
I don’t even play piano. I’m not a classically trained musician either.
But goddamn because I watch Twoset, that thumbnail cracked me up real hard LOL
GOD I LOVE U GUYS !! you guys really inspired me to start playing piano' and i appreciate u guys for tht. much love
You guys are the best!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ending music ❤️❤️❤️❤️
0:47 bird gang is happy.
I smiled. Thank you for this video
I'm excited for Prelude to be used in more videos cause it's amazing!
Nobody:
Editor-san: divertimento by Mozart in every video
Now that you’ve finally used Prelude as your outro, when will we get see it on spotify/apple music?
Oh my god. It's been a while I'm away from youtube. But when I come back, it's so cool seeing both of you look so fresh and comedic as ever!
As a piano player and enthusiast I'm always happy when they mention the piano they usually have some nice things to say about it 🥰
