Who watches TwoSetViolin but doesn’t play violin?
Clarinet for almost 13 years.
I.. I play viola
I play oboe and alto sax but i want to do orchestra next year and play cello lol
Ahh, I have been playing trombone for about 4 years.
I play contrabass lol
Eddy got more correct answers than Brett. He really is the Viola King. 🤣🤣🤣
69th like
It's sad that he's not good enough to play the viola.
Actually Eddy goes to more concerts and orchestras than Brett
He might be a viola player in disguise lol
Plot Twist
Brett is the Viola King he was playing so well, then Eddy guessed them right.
I noticed you can sight read alto clef, but claim to hate viola...INTERESTING
I love how they're really good at playing it, also...they don't show it much but you know they both can shred that thing. Behind the scenes you know they're hot for viola sometimes.
@@mattimaranda9638 😂😂
They used to play viola.
Grade 5 Music theory and up, you must be able to read Alto and Tenor clef lol. I play the piano but I can sight read in Alto clef.
They plays the piano
Here's a true CHALLENGE:
Guess the concerto by the percussion part! Coming from a percussionist I wish you good luck sirs, because even we can't understand our part
Hahah
I'd be able to guess at least Holst's "Mars, Bringer of War" by percussion alone. Love that movement
most of these: tacet
Lol imagine if you only have to play one note and you missed it..
@@DickEnchilada p

*Wants to roast Viola players*
*Can't read C Clef scores.*
And I'm sitting here dealing with my bass, tenor and treble clefs. Such is the life of a cellist.
@@painovoimaton You poor soul.
Sitting here with bass clef, tenor clef, treble clef, and transposed treble clef. Such is the life of a trombone.
And here's me with bass clef, alto clef, treble clef, octave-treble ("Dvorak") clef, tenor clef, soprano clef, baritone clef, and French tablature. Such is the life of a violist da gamba.
For advanced study, add French violin clef, mezzosoprano clef, and seven additional sizes/tunings of the instrument. If you are Ling Ling, add German tablature.
@@painovoimaton bassoonists suffer with us cellists at least though
Up next: guess the viola concerto from the violin part.
Yeah -- that'll learn 'em a thing or three!
No one knows viola concertos
@@ivanarellano3409 hey there
@@ivanarellano3409 if by "no one" you mean those lacking culture, then yes. that's correct lmao
there's viola concerto ?
me: ah yes, my area of expertise 😏
also me: **doesn’t even recognise my own part**
dc.superflash, not recognizing your part is a violists area of expertise
dc.superflash Recognize*
@@randomrage1203 ouch lol
Heh same
Do you play the... viola???
But deep deep in their heart I think they actually have fun playing the viola😂
I get the feeling that violists are the electric bassist's analogue in the orchestra
I think so too
Ling Ling can play both the violin and viola part simultaneously on cello
While reading bass part
While using the treble clef while cooking for his Asian motha after he study all while running track
and sight reading and blindfolded and doing jumping jacks
And sleeping and showering
While singing the bass
*"Oh, okay Mr. Perfect Pitch!"*

"Interesting!"
Nice to see you two getting some use out of that viola. Maybe if you practiced it you could play it, too.
Kristine Carlson they can play. Because the viola is slightly bigger and the strings are placed a little differently, it makes it harder to adjust to the viola when playing the violin beforehand.
@@LOCAL_LEE well sure but their tone on viola is pretty bad, they also need better intonation.
Burnnnn
Ik this comments rlly old buuut that said not the only thing différant about viola

Eddy: Who even pays attention to the viola part anyways?
Me: I. . . I do 😢 (I play the viola)
shame on you
LittleMonster 287 he is making fun of us. this is REVENGE! we must get more (I also play viola and I love conquistador the song
Why do people even make fun of violas, people who play them r actually talented though -_- (I play viola too)
I believe you’ll be a Ling Ling between violist
Tbh though, I don't pay much attention to the viola part in violin concertos (or most other concertos) because 99% of the time it is really really boring
It somehow makes me feel good inside to know that I play Viola better than Brett and Eddy...though I don't know how much that matters
Because now you can roast them back.
I heard Eddy play the viola at their New York City live show. Brett played the violin and Eddy played the viola. They did a duet. Eddy is really good at playing the viola!😂
WhAtEvEr MaTe wHaTeVeR mAtE
Exactly
I feel you
@@tessLizCroft Maybe before Twoset began, Eddy was a violist. And then Brett came and saved him and said "Let's start Twoset Violin :)".
Brett’s birthday present can be used only at this time 🤦🏻♀️
Imagine he secretly practices the viola...
Ah he's a secret violist ua-cam.com/video/pl5WtNI4Ojs/v-deo.html
It's so funny - they are SO USED to their violin's bow length and keep practically skewering eachother.
Try guessing the concerto from the double bass part
that would be fun
Haha
@Arpicembalo triangle part
V I amirite.
@@69mviewsnt Liszt piano concerto no.1
Every viola player gets revenge every time Brett says "oh sh*t"
I swear that was the first time I've ever heard him curse 😂
That went about as well as I thought it would.
I agree with your name and profile picture

"it's the most nonmelodic part ever"
...What'd you expect? Violas to actually get the melody? LOL
Joseph Zhang Apparently it’s jazz 😂
You really think that? Are you music analphabet or what?
Violas get less melodic part that the overrated violin, but there are still a lot of good melodic violas parts! Search and you will find!
😢
Ofc they do, in most occasions violas get the melody and in some occasions violas get solo.
Actually, yeah.
Now you know my pain while I'm in orchestra...
Yes.
I play viola.
Of course
Me too
Why
Why
Why
Me too but I pity the basses more
Same here man I can barely hear myself or the violas at all bc there are 3 violas and like 752 violins

💀SKSHJAHAH
8:12
LOOK AT THE SUBTITLES
Brett says "It's Bach"
Subtitles say "Da fuq"
That killed me xD
Wait, did they just sightread music for an instrument that they don't play in a clef that they don't play?
It's very common for violinists to be 'converted' to the viola section when there aren't enough violists. If they're professional players, most likely they have performed on the viola more than once already
Uummmmm.....yup
well the viola just lacks the high e and gains that low C, meaning that in treble clef they read the same but move the string 'down' to the next lowest, as for the clef, its a bit confusing sometimes
Mech WARRIOR57 especially since the alto clef is one octave and ONE NOTE off from treble... couldn’t they have made it exactly one octave lower smh
@@Jay-S04 at that point though you could just use a treble clef 8 bassa
I play viola.....this is very accurate. I struggle to stay awake in my highschool orchestra
Your comment killed me😂😂
Same
Same :(
My high school orchestra teacher recognized that we needed good viola parts, since the violins sounded like shit, so we got pretty great pieces.
Actually true
Try guessing the concerto from a wind part with tacet.
Edit: YAUS this is the second time twoset loved my comment :0
Lmao just basing it off the font and amount of measures 😂 rad
Know the number of measures there is in a piece challenge
Hey, I watch your channel too
I watch ur vids
key/time signature, publication style, movement length, which movement is tacet. Tempo names, etc There's actually a lot of data even without notes
Ironic how this channel is what inspired me to learn viola
2set: Who even pays attention to the Viola anyways?
Me, a viola player: that's not even funny because it's true lmao
*silently cries*
poor you
let's stay positive, nobody listens to out mistakes as well 😔✨
Viola: *sccccrrrrrrraaaaatch*
Brett or Eddy: Beethoven
Viola: *skreeeeeeeeeeee*
Brett or Eddy: Mozart
Viola: (Perfect note in tune)
Brett or Eddy: wut I don't think that's even in a concerto
Violin logic...😒
*Makes jokes about violas*
*can't play it sounding good*
this is an underrated observation
It's because violas don't sound good never :v
@@darzeearmstrong that's fake news :D
Valerie Darzee it’s because the viola is a harder instrument to play because of the size so if you want to get it to sound good it can take years of practice mostly because of the bigger size and awkward string placements it’s hard to make it sound clean and clear
@@lilliangutherless2136 Now I understand everything, that is the reason that nobody wants to play the viola. It's so many difficult that only the bravest can play it. Cheers!
Eddy is so good at guessing from the viola part, maybe he's born to play the viola!
"some people are just meant to play the c string" --eddy chen (see Its Okay to Play Viola)
Eddy: ‘Who even listens to the viola parts?’
Me: ‘the violists’
I love viola harmonies. Quite often, I am unaware of how the violin melodies go, from the viola seat, and years later hear it on the radio and have that ‘so that’s how it goes’ lightbulb moment. 💡
#violagang
I love them too☺️I’m new to viola and it’s been a revalation to hear the inner voice of pieces. I love the way sometimes viola has this push pull thing with the rest of the orchestra too, sometimes totally fighting it or echoing something while they are off somewhere else. Counting rests is awfully hard at my beginner level though 😆
dghi
Oh well........🙃
Musicians are supposed to listen to others when they play with them, though.
@@jaydenfung1 listening to those around you for synchronised energy and timing are different from listening to just the melody (I would not be doing my job properly if I only did this). 🎻🤘
That might be a balancing/ensemble issue then or you might be playing too loudly in your own ear if you can't hear the melody. Good ensembles emphasize active listening and if it's something with few parts like a string orchestra, then they can typically hear all parts and know who has what
viola part: doesn't look like a melodic first violin part
brett: iS tHAt ProKoFiEV?
Playing the viola and watching this video is the best cause for once I know things they don’t 😂
Hey Violas, where are you??😂💕 We need to be strong together❤
I m with you stay strong
I'm going to join the group of violists very soon!
Fuck this I'm moving to cello... Wait nvm I can't afford one ....viola gang?
Viola greetings from Germany 💪🏻

I'm a violinist and that is true as hell
I only liked this comment because I was the 69th like
Lol try playing an organ trio, right hand alto clef, left hand tenor clef, feet bass clef.
Twoset: * openly insults violists *
Also twoset: Struggles to call the viola part insignificant for fear of upsetting the composer
Love it when they play clips of Hilary Hahn whenever possible😂 she's a queen
Love how they use Hillary Hahn clips to showcase the concertos for us!
I like that cat.
An ad popped up before the video and I was going to skip it, but then I remembered that TwoSet get money from ads, so I watched it. I sacrificed 1 minute 26 seconds, and my data for them.
i painfully relate to this
Sucks for you then, after 30 seconds any time is just a waste as after 30 it counts as a paid view
@@moomooplopadom5483 seriously?
@@moomooplopadom5483 interesting.
Careful! He’s a hero!
as someone who has recently taken up the violin but has traditionally sung alto and harmony in choir, I'm thinking perhaps the viola is more my speed

Hats off to Editor-San for the light sabre sound effects! Nice! 🎻❤️🔥
Hmmm I'm so glad that you guys made a viola video again :)))) Acc viola sounds really nice : known for sounding like a human's voice :) so if you play viola well, it can be quite touching :)
i was having a full blown triggered crying session that was gonna devolve into a panic attack so i desperately clicked on the first thing i saw when i opened yt and y'all got me snorting a laugh through my tears LMFAO twoset never fails me
As if it wasn't hard enough to sight read the alto clef.....
Jessica Ng I know that the viola uses the alto clef, but I wonder does any band instrument use alto?? I know nothing about band 😂😂
Lilly Dreher sometimes bassoon does I think
@@lillydreher426 I think alto sax does, but I've never laid eyes on alto sax music sooooo
@@lillydreher426 Mostly if they use a clef that looks like the alto clef, it'll be the C-clef on another line and tenor clef rather than alto (it's one line different). Occasionally trombone parts use alto clef for high passages, and you find alto clef in older organ books as well, and like very very very very old copies of, you guessed it, alto parts.
@@adelinaarmstrong9423 Alto sax uses treble clef. Tenor sax and baritone sax also use treble clef. They're transposing instruments so you write music for the note B (for example) and a different sound actually comes out. This is convenient for folks who play more than one type of saxophone, because you just see "B" and do the "B" fingering.
Watching Brett playing viola makes me realise how short he must actually be 😂
He's 5'5" or 5'6"! So not too short
i also suspect he might not (im not sure) have long enough arms to play a full-sized viola. i also suspect their viola is full size (pretty sure). but im not sure if such a difference actually exists between him and his viola.
5:54 lol brett's jumping around like a little boi
9:01 eddy
so full of energy
The video was uploaded 6 minutes ago, its eleven minutes long, there are 119 comments..
Which is an indictment of the *viewers*. Liking the video before watching it. Commenting before watching it. All to be "first".
Because they watch the video a 2x speed so they can go back to practice quickly.
Where is the livestream guys? You promised one when you hit the 1M mark.

@@twosetviolin Dang you responded!
Classical Music ikrrrrr
05:59 this is a proof that if you have a perfect pitch doesn't mean that you can guess the piece correctly.
I just saw you at a meet and greet kinda thing and I really love how y’all are so real and true to your selfs like it was so nice meeting you and getting to know the story behind TwoSetViolin I was extremely happy and I’m glad I got to see you so close and in person 😁
*Challenge:* try to play a violin piece but turn the sheet music upside down, unless of course the pitch gets too low that you have to use a viola 😏😏
Wow I didn't even recognize the viola part of the concerto which i'm currently studying (Bruch).. i'm so bad at this
But the video was very enjoyable, hope you'll do more of these, maybe with other instruments' parts
Agreed. It’s really great to see the harmony parts
add an extra hour to practice every time Brett says “oh shit”
Funny when they played the excerpts...
...I couldn't hear the viola part
It's the first time I see you guys play viola seriously (to win the game). Lingling would be proud.
I love these videos, but what we REALLY need is more cello content. Sincerely, the best section : )
"The bow is a deadly, dangerous weapon"
- Eddy, 2019 - Umbrella Academy Violin Review
I ever read a comic book. There were 3 students singing. One was melody 1 , second was melody 2, third was like an accompaniment harmony (maybe like a viola) ? She harmonized or maybe made the song kind of perfect and nicer. And in the comic, there was a part when the third felt like she sucked too for her unimportant role 😂 but then her friends help her to gain her confidence. Without her, the melody 1 and 2 are too dominant. And they made a perfect trio harmony in the end.
I think viola does it too for violins ! It smoothes the song with its few notes. Foods are more delicious with chilli. Maybe sumthing like that 😝
I dunno, im pianist anyway 😆
"We're poor musicians"

Why is everyone always coming at violas though, like dang
Dayja Bland - 🤜🤛
Dayja Bland bc that’s the channels best joke
Because it's so different compared to other instruments in the orchestra. They do get annoying though...
It's an inside joke.
Just so you know, Brett and Eddy didn't invent viola jokes.
Classical musicians (especially violinists) have been making fun of violists for 300 years. It's like a "tradition" in orchestra.
You should google "viola jokes", you'll find very insightful articles, like this one : www.wqxr.org/story/why-viola-butt-so-many-jokes/ . 🤗
i just want to say that i fucking LIVE for these violin games/charades. making classical music relevant and fun is my vice (and also pretty important to inspire more people to dive into the oft intimidating realm)
Just came back from the Dallas show, and it was pretty great. Congrats, guys.
Seems as if it harder to play the viola than what you always claim!
Erik Nystrom they say viola is insignificant but they can’t even play it lmao
Not so Anonymously actually, I heard Eddy play the viola at their live show in Seattle and he’s actually good. They just play badly as a joke, which you would know if you had a sense of humor.
RandomGreninja no...
they actually like the viola and can play it well, they just joking
@@VIM365 literally yes lmao you violists get so cheesed off so easily
Hearing the orchestral part of the viola actually sounds nice. Hence I feel bad when they keep making fun of viola. It has a warm sound in orchestra
Who plays viola but doesn’t care about the jokes on this channel 😂
It's getting a lil old though.
Yea for someone who is deaf- O wait you can read subtitles

Hi my name is Voilet and my orchestra teacher came to your show yesterday. He told us the amazing story of how he met you guys and escorted you to the lobby while pushing booker t Washington students out of he way! It was awesome.

I am a proud member of the viola gang
ayo me too :D
Please come to Kansas City, U.S. on your tour...!! Many will definitely go. This is a very musical city in Classical and jazz. 😊
Even in a field of violas you get a flute solo....even if that is Vivalavida Spring with a British documentist in the foreground talking while birds chirp and a distant stream trickles
Violas are just the gift that keeps on giving
Look at Eddy. He is practicing!!
What a good boy :)
*Be like Eddy*
*Go practice!!!*
Fun to watch!! ^^
These guys are funny. It's nice to see people have fun with viola, or make fun of viola, whichever you want to call it.
I got excited when I saw this because I thought maybe they were finally being inclusive of my instrument for once
But then I realized it was probably 11 minutes and 29 seconds of roasting instead
I don't feel like I can laugh along with them anymore, I think of all the kids trying to learn viola that end up on the receiving end of this and it's starting to seem like a shame.
@@TheSIGHTREADINGProject Well unfortunatley, a lot of the time younger musicians don't understand that viola jokes are all in good fun, and sometimes that can result in bullying. However, it isn't TwoSet's fault for making these kind of jokes, and there is no need for them to clarify or stop making them just because of the minority of people that don't realise they aren't legitimate insults. It just goes to show that a joke can easily go too far, and that there is a clear time for these kind of jokes. Unless somebody is genuinley offended, I see no harm in poking fun at your violist friends, providing that it dosen't go too far and end up hurting people's feelings. So don't worry about the viola jokes on TwoSet violin; they are proffesional musicians and it is all in good fun and is not meant to be taken seriously.
Maisie B - I see your side and I’ve loved watching TwoSet for 18 months. But where they begin, their comment section follows, taking it further and further - and if I’m starting to find it hostile then surely others are too. There’s a girl in the comments feeling bad about her viola and a school cellist beginner saying he wanted to learn viola and switched to cello because of watching TwoSet. These are youngsters and the ripple effect of the ‘jokes’ is reaching them in real life.
I also felt uneasy about the treatment of Alma Deutscher, who was 12 at the time. They have even made an ‘INTERESTING’ t-shirt out of her roasting. If I was her parent I’d be fuming. 12 is so sweet and innocent an age and not fair game for public japes
Much as I like Brett and Eddy, I think it’s important people push back and say something if they think something is out of order (even if it’s only me!). It’s harder to stand up to people you admire and like and so all the more important to take a breath and just do it. It doesn’t mean you don’t like them anymore, just that you didn’t like what they did at a particular point.
Enjoyed reading your perspective. There’s a lot of wisdom in that too
@@TheSIGHTREADINGProject That is true - twoset 'memes' can often be very harsh.. but there was an entire 'viola gang' meme. Eddy literally rapped about how the viola was BETTER than violin! Also, they have/do sell viola related merchandise, so that it is more inclusive for all players.
By the way, in the Alma video: I found it as though they were very impressed with her playing. They mainly said negative things about 90 minutes, (such as the bad cutting which COULD make the video easy to fake) the whole interesting and Bb meme was only reflecting that she was very talented. I mean, it is not easy to improvise stuff in one minute after all.
Glad to hear your thoughts as well 😁
@@TheSIGHTREADINGProject If you really want your views to be heard, I think it is worth emailing TwoSet directly about your concerns. (They usually put their email in the description of all of their videos).
Maybe if you (and others) are sensitive to these kind of jokes, it is worth staying away from these kind of 'viola' videos. I know it can be diffucult to predict/put a measure on what videos you wouldn't enjoy watching, but it is worth trying if the content bothers you.
P.S Love your channel! You are a really excellent technical player, and I look forward to watching some more of your piano related videos (as I am a pianist as well as a violinist - you might have guessed that I play violin already!) You have definetly been making progress and it is a joy to watch :)
Violas are the best 🤥

Wait they look so youthful and full of life here. lol rewatching old twoset videos

They can play the viola just fine, thank you very much. Because the viola is slightly bigger and the strings are placed a little differently, it makes it harder to adjust to playing the viola when playing the violin beforehand.
