They've been playing violin for more than 20 years, including in orchestra and string quartets. Their brain is trained to compute what they hear very fast. Plus Eddy has perfect pitch, it makes it much easier for him to instantly detect notes that are out of tune.
Rey card imagine you see a color with your eyes, and you instantly know what color it is. You don’t have to think; you just go: “oh that’s blue because it’s blue.” From what I understand, perfect pitch is like that but with hearing notes. so like *rips a massive fart* someone with perfect pitch: “oh thats a G flat(ulence)”
Its interesting to watch but i play the viola... those notes are tuff... 16th notes suckkk is you chage notes... cuz you literally throwing up gang signs to get the notes
I sent my friend a clip from the TwoSet Among Us video ("Maybe someone just keeps reading the wrong accidental." "But how? Two times." "Maybe they're just stupid.") and she said, "I mean it's not like a percussionist would understand 🙄✋" and I just about died laughing.
Bc Eddy can be guided by his ear and perfect pitch if he’s remotely familiar with the piece and Brett can rely on muscle memory and good accuracy w/ sight reading 👌
Some guy: So, your piece is in a key signature, right? Strauss: yeah Some guy: So, are you going to _use_ any of the notes in that key consistently? Strauss: lol nah
I had suspected this, so I checked- Eddy's mistake at 5:14 is due to a misprint. The quarter and dotted quarter are supposed to be sixteenth notes as he played it, at least according to all the scores on IMSLP.
Keely Hayes-Davies same. Even though I took mostly all the music classes when I was in high school: ledger line notes still throw me off. It’s a hassle

Well my last comment was 2 months ago and partly due to a convo thread with another TwoSetter but mostly thanks to two guys called Brett & Eddy, I'm now seriously considering it myself, Matt. Have done lots of online research and found a luthier who rents a violin for £17.50 a month! In the meantime I've constructed a bow 'end' to practice my hold so when I try out my eldest son's viola (that he was gifted but doesn't play) I'll have an idea of whether to make that start. Yes, insanely difficult but in 15yrs I should be well beyond 'Twinkle, twinkle' Lol
I took Up the violin when i was 48 now 57 years old and i can tell You unless you have Lots and lots of patience and preserverance there are dark days ahead. Actually even with those qualities it is no walk in the park Either.

But it is one of those things where You Sound awful and then suddenly one day it all falls into Place and its magic!! The key ingredient needed here is the passion for the music that will male you push through.
i don’t understand what it’s like to play violin in the slightest, but, i _do_ play the piano, and have done some pretty basic sightreading. despite that, the sheer *terror* i feel at the sight of this many sixteenths and accidentals is still there my point is, you two are incredible.

It helps when it's a well known tune, you can bridge gaps in the sight-read from just remembering how it supposed to sound. They would have been at least vaguely familiar with this, as it's one of those tunes every classical musician has heard many times during his education.

You can train your sightreading abilities ... if you know your instrument and you do a lot of sightreading (after 20 years on the same instrument it is quite managebale) - and don't forget: They are professional musicians!
As a pianist, violist, and former violinist, I can tell you with confidence that four flats on violin is way harder than four flats on piano. even five sharps would be better for a violinist than four flats.
these boys...they are just so adorably nerdy. pure simple joy for music and passion for the violin, they translate through the screen so profoundly no wonder they get not only subscribers but real honest fans.
Me, seeing 4 sharps on the clarinet: ok I can do this Me, upon seeing one (1) sharp in my piece for voice class: for personal reasons I will be passing away
Petition for Brett and Eddy to upload content of them just playing great pieces together It’s free content that doesn’t take too much time to plan, it doesn’t have to be perfect. It could function as a showcase of a particular style or composer, or examples of personal favourites, or be for its own sake 😊
Me a piano player: *is horrible at sight reading* My teacher: Really now, you can’t be that bad Me: just plays from memory and doesn’t look at music half the time
As a piano player, I must agree. In an online lesson yesterday, I had to sight read something, and i said to my teacher “but miss!!! I cant sight read these crazy chords in the bass AND the crazy melody AT THE SAME TIME!!!” She gasped and said “you’re a piano player you should be able to sight read treble and bass at the same time!”
Eddy plays with such lovely emotion, even though it was level 5 he was still feeling it. Totally blown away with Brett’s ability to never drop technic.
I’m exactly the opposite with piano. I’m on a different level with playing than I am with sight reading, but I don’t even have any grades and I’m playing fantasie impromptu
I love the delight you two have in the music and the playing of it. Watching you both being so playful is wonderful. It helps enormously that you know what you’re doing! Thank you for making me smile!

What I love-you both encourage and still able to gently kid your friend ❤️. I also LOVED a that when you played together, you both NAILED the piece. And that is music, beauty together and shows the love and friendship. Just found your channel and love!!!!
It would be like playing four sharps for a wind player or something like that. In fact, if the wind instrument is already in B flat, then playing 4 flats on that instrument would be like playing 2 sharps on a violin, which is super easy (hence all the violin concertos in D major lol)
Clarinerd617 ummm having played many pieces in 5 or 6 flats I can assure you that violinists are very capable of doing so... it’s just hard to sight read perfectly at close to performance tempo (which is what these two are attempting)

Me: [Laughs in Piano] pathetic
Omg me
SOOOO ME
As a pianist, violist, and former violinist, I can tell you with confidence that four flats on violin is way harder than four flats on piano. even five sharps would be better for a violinist than four flats.
A. Zhang chill that was just a joke... dont take it too serious!
😂😂
these boys...they are just so adorably nerdy. pure simple joy for music and passion for the violin, they translate through the screen so profoundly no wonder they get not only subscribers but real honest fans.
And here is me, laughing, and not even understanding what went wrong
Me, seeing 4 sharps on the clarinet: ok I can do this
Me, upon seeing one (1) sharp in my piece for voice class: for personal reasons I will be passing away
Me, a violinist seeing 4 sharps:
ME OMG
Such a precious comment
Yo same
I'm a flute player. I hate doing more than 2 sharps
When you still sight reading, Ling Ling has already finished playing.
Verolu tell ling ling to get on tempo.
Lion Cubz lmao wrong if u can play it slow, you know what they say
When they're about to play, Ling Ling has already finished playing.
You know it’s about to get serious when Eddy takes off his jacket.
It's like the America's got talent contestants
Once i had to sight read Prokofiev's 1st Symphony 1st violin part 'cuz i was notified 20 minutes before rehearsal... I'm still traumatized
Were you able to play it though? :D just curious! I wanna know how it went 😁
It must hurt big time :)
That's so sad
prayers for u 🥺
That sounds Russian and therefore horrible to sightread.
I love how they're just peacefully playing then when one of them messes up the start screaming 😂
You mean extremely stressed and tense from all the concentration ;)
Time to feel bad about my sight reading skills-
EmPlayzGamez And playing skills. And skills in general. Just time to feel bad I think ._.
I like how your profile picture totally matches the comment
what an appropriate pfp
@@valeaves I feel you
I take like on hour to decipher one sheet i'm ashamed
I love when they played together they bobbed their heads at the same time😂
Petition for Brett and Eddy to upload content of them just playing great pieces together
It’s free content that doesn’t take too much time to plan, it doesn’t have to be perfect. It could function as a showcase of a particular style or composer, or examples of personal favourites, or be for its own sake 😊
Fuzzy Blitzball #TwosetRecital
There’s a YT vid of them being serious and playing a Mendelssohn quartet together. It’s quite good.
Mendelssohn String Quartet No. 2 in A minor, Op. 13: th-cam.com/video/z6JEPmO9wu0/w-d-xo.html
You should play for real more often! It sounds so great despite sightreading!
Ok but I'm german and hearing them pronounce " ein heldenleben" was just too adorable lol
Same xD
Jaa, wie eigentlich alle Namen von deutschen Komponisten, deren Stücke sie gespielt haben...
@@janifromspace ey warte, mir fallt das jetzt erst auf aber wir haben den gleichen Namen? Haha
@@jhuepper5046 anscheinend schon :) Das macht das ganze irgendwie noch besser🤗
I'm dutch and i know how to pronounce german words, i also had to laugh
I can’t even read sheet music but I was stressed the whole time they were playing lmao
4:25 eddy sight reads fabulously but read "16" as "six"
i didnt realise that 😂
That drove my number OCD nuts, lol😂
Somehow I think these guys might play the violin??? Idk why I think this I just get this feeling??? Maybe I'm just sacrilegious
@@telexghoulie that's no way to talk to a fellow violin fan.
@@telexghoulie chill out its just a theory
impossible! them, play a violin? what blasphemous words you have uttered!
wow just because they are asian how racist
@@macemaker123 nah I think it's because of what they're holding????? Can't tell what they are tho idk
Feel like I'm watching little Einstein's
😂
You made me spill my drink
I almost died cause of you.
Piano player: "What is all the jabbering about, this isn't so hard to sight read"
Entire orchestra: **turns around**
Me a piano player:
*is horrible at sight reading*
My teacher:
Really now, you can’t be that bad
Me: just plays from memory and doesn’t look at music half the time
hahahaha so true!!!
As a piano player, I must agree. In an online lesson yesterday, I had to sight read something, and i said to my teacher “but miss!!! I cant sight read these crazy chords in the bass AND the crazy melody AT THE SAME TIME!!!” She gasped and said “you’re a piano player you should be able to sight read treble and bass at the same time!”
I'm a guy that plays the piano and i suck a lot on sight-reading two staves.
I can feel their pain
I really REALLY HATE sight readings it'll torture your mind and e y e s
oh my god lol. I get it cause it's just like a rush of adrenalin to get it right but I love it soooo much
Sight reading isn’t that bad I think, it’s ok. If you sight read more, you can play better
Sammememmeemmeme
This is why I prefer to play it by memorising
It was actually my favorite in my piano ABRSM tests. They were really fun for me and sounded good as well.
Eddy plays with such lovely emotion, even though it was level 5 he was still feeling it. Totally blown away with Brett’s ability to never drop technic.
Who did this at every music lesson instead of practicing?
I’ll practice.. eventually..
Yes!! I don’t play violin though, I play piano. But I used to sight read at all my lessons 😂
I perfect the skill of sight reading rather than practicing 👌
I’m exactly the opposite with piano. I’m on a different level with playing than I am with sight reading, but I don’t even have any grades and I’m playing fantasie impromptu
@@brynkc3355 lol same here I’m playing Un Sospiro and sight reading the entire piece took me like 2 hours
I love the delight you two have in the music and the playing of it. Watching you both being so playful is wonderful. It helps enormously that you know what you’re doing! Thank you for making me smile!
Omg this was so good. My sight reading is shit, so I have a lot of respect for you guys holy cow
Kristine same. I’m so bad at sight reading even though I took Orchestra, Piano, and Choir during high school
Same, I'm really bad at eight reading. Since I don't have glasses yet I have to get really close to the stand to read the music.
A Banana I hate when that happens which is why my teacher was always calling me out for not having my glasses cuz I was getting way to close to my music stand
@@narutoninjagoandtheflashar4256 I know righttttttt. Orchestra is 1000 times harder with bad vision. I'm always getting called out for playing wrong notes. :(
A Banana I don’t play wrong notes. I was just getting so close to the stand that I was hogging it from my stand partner
I’ll show my kids and say “this is how I feel when you show me something funny in your games that I don’t understand”
I admit I don’t play the violin (or any other instrument) but I love Brett and Eddy 💕
@Stan Loona who doesn’t love them?
Omg hi orbit🥺🤙
The burning SQUIP project some violists
A mood
Stan Loona I don't play violin but I do play guitar
As a high school senior tuba player, I’ve seen more sixteenth notes in this video than in my entire career.
Me: **Has to play Brandenburg for an orchestra concert and is sightreading it**
Me: *watches him PERFECT it at **3:17*
Also me: *screws up the first 3 measures*
**throws violin across the room**
W I N C E
iS tHe BriDGe OkAy
I played it...I sightread it and faked the last 3 measures
brandenburg is my fav one but i kid you not it took me so long to get the actually tiempo 😭.
RespEcT yoUr InstRumEnTs
dude... why am I holding my breath like this is some kind of hardcore action movie LMAO
What I love-you both encourage and still able to gently kid your friend ❤️. I also LOVED a that when you played together, you both NAILED the piece. And that is music, beauty together and shows the love and friendship. Just found your channel and love!!!!
*me staring at the sheet music not even knowing where they are*
Wow...thats good..
Takes them 2 seconds to read and play 3 bars and it takes me 30 seconds to figure out one note. Damn.
Niko righttttt😭🤣
It comes with practice
Yet I still can’t do after 3 years of practice
Something tells me that practice isn’t the key to everything
7:59
TSV: bruh, there’s four flats
Literally every wind player ever: so?
It would be like playing four sharps for a wind player or something like that. In fact, if the wind instrument is already in B flat, then playing 4 flats on that instrument would be like playing 2 sharps on a violin, which is super easy (hence all the violin concertos in D major lol)
At this point in orchestra, I expect nothing less than 4 flats. Fellow wind (trumpet) player.
Eh, c-instruments are just wimps. “If it isn’t in C major in Common Time, it’s too hard.”
Bitch try playing Stravinsky’s Three Pieces sometime.
Clarinerd617 ummm having played many pieces in 5 or 6 flats I can assure you that violinists are very capable of doing so... it’s just hard to sight read perfectly at close to performance tempo (which is what these two are attempting)
Clarinerd617 BASICALLY
I love how you keep smiling to self inflicted pain. Your passion and enthusiasm are inspiring!
Music is not a competition
Music competitions : am I a joke to you
Guys you always upload when my practice session ends. How do you do that????
Wait, I found the reason:

@@lillianliu8880 but don't deserve because we don't practice 40 hrs/day.

What's the piece in between?
Thanks for this !! Also, do you know the song of the piece in the background between 0:09 and 0:36??
Eddy: "not that music is a competition "
Also Eddy: makes everything a competition
Your level of attractiveness jump so high when you guys sight read
