10:37 You say Finland and Hungary are so far apart, but actually their languages and ethnic groups are related! They’re both Uralic, the original tribes migrated from the Ural Mountains (in modern day Russia) to Hungary and to Finland/Estonia.
Thank you. Finno-Ugric or Uralic languages. We love TSV to pieces, even when their general knowledge is lacking. That’s entirely due to their practicing 40 hrs a day, so it’s easily forgiven. 😊❤
The more you know . . .
I thought that, but particularly the folk music traditions are really distinct from each other. Finland was so heavily influenced culturally by Scandinavia (and a little bit by Russia), and Hungary by central and southern Europe (especially think about how much of Bartok's stuff was studies of like Romanian and Macedonian folk tunes). The linguistic connection is really far in the past, far enough that if you don't know it you'd be unlikely to see it without a really deep dive.
@@jelenakatic1778 When I first got into them, their lack of general knowledge (esp geographic knowledge) annoyed me a bit, but now I just find it a bit adorable. At least they're kind of self-aware about it
So true!
I love that their games have developed from “loser has punishment” to “winner has bbt” and now they are just having fun 🤣
I prefffered it with the punishment/reward, gives it more excitement
nah I didn’t… feels basic and a bit childish to stay on the same punishment thing forever
I love how both of them make it quickly obvious that the majority of their musical knowledge just comes from having played every Violin Concerto ever composed. "This is just like the Violin Concerto!"
lol to a certain extent. they were also orchestral musicians for quite some time as well
As Dave Hurwitz would say, "you mean all six of them?" I KNOW there are more violin concertos than that, but his point is the repertoire is limited, so the same concertos are played and recorded over and over again.
Yes, but how did they miss the Sibelius??
4:55 when brett says
"Aus tiefer Not schrei ich zu dir: you got it wrong!" that's actually kind of a logical sentence, meaning something along the lines of "Of abject misery I scream at you: you got it wrong!"
(Sorry if someone wrote that already, I didn't find any comment about this.)
Edit: For the actual (biblical) translation read the comments on this one to find Linda Cowles' comment!
oh, wow, what a coincidence! 😂
Bestimmt. Hätte er “Du warst falsch!“ gesagt…..
G'day! It's actually from Psalm 130:1 "Out of deep anguish I call to You."
@@lindacowles756 Thank you! Added a note for interested ppl to my comment!
Oh, interesting. Hearing him pronounce the German title, I was like "That sounds pretty good, has he studied German in the past?"
Brett: *listening like a normal person*
Eddy: *slowly turning into a instrument*
Well Brett may be listening like a normal /person/ but Eddy is acting like a normal /musician/ - slowly turning into a musical instrument while listening to music is in fact the typical action of a normal musician ^^
These comments might be offensive to Brett because he is a musician like Eddy.
@@youngkyJprolly not
i'm so glad they're bringing back the really fun guessing games like before!! ❤❤
I honestly wouldn't mind them redoing previous games. There are so many I don't remember a lot of them and it wouldn't detract from viewing enjoyment at all if they redid some of their games.
YESS they’re so fun to play along with
I love your profile picture omg
And longer videos too❤
Rogerina
As a non-classical musician that has only been introduced to classical music by twoset, I was surprised that I was able to guess some of the pieces. Some I did not get correctly but had close guesses based on what they sounded like. It's astonishing--I reckon twoset has cultured me more than I thought they did! 😅
Have you been practicing?
Bit of a late reply here, but same! They taught me so much about classical music
I love how Eddy breaks out into his conductor form every once in a while 😂
As a dancer, I immediately picked out Tchaikovsky… he’s incredibly distinctive.
Same, ballet knowledge actually helps lol
@@isra9862 Also, the Chopin La Ci Darem variations were used by Frederick Ashton in one of his ballets.
Same lol
Immediately I was like, this has such distinct Tchaikovsky piano vibes; it really echoes his first one in how the piano soars above the orchestra
And it’s literally the music for Balanchine's Allegro Brillante 😂
While it’s a great game, it’s also amazing how much I learn from videos like this. The discussion on why they thought a piece was by a particular composer was very educational.
That is totally my favorite part. It's like a crash course in classical musical education!
twoset isn’t just funny, they educate their audience too!
0:46 (answer: 1:38) - guessed correctly, had a good laugh when Eddy said it sounded "kinda off"
2:00 (answer: 3:16) - recognized it from Bruce Liu's excellent third round performance at 2021 competition
3:50 (answer: 4:52) - got it right, sounded too complex for any other baroque composer and also reminded me of Sonata 3 fugue
5:16 (answer: 6:04) - was gonna guess very early Stravinsky, but got it right after seeing the choices
6:32 (answer: 7:07) - yay, got it
7:26 (answer: 7:51) - yep, it had to be
8:01 (answer: 8:50) - guessed C. Schumann
9:17 (answer: 9:31) - haha too easy
9:54 (answer: 10:18) - guessed Dvořák
11:05 (answer: 11:53) - yay, I also thought the beginning sounded like unfinished symphony
12:18 (answer: 14:23) - got it right, was almost gonna guess Beethoven but 14:03 doesn't sound like him
14:41 (answer: 15:26) - no idea, was gonna guess Mendelssohn based on 15:03-15:09, then guessed Dvořák
15:50 (answer: 16:51) - same as Eddy, knew it was modern from 16:06 and got it right after the violin melody
17:33 (answer: 18:30) - guessed R. Schumann
18:39 (answer: 19:52) - this one was wild, the beginning suspensions sounded like Wagner, the long sequence sounded like Rimsky-Korsakov, the climax sounded like Rachmaninoff, the way down sounded like Mussgorsky (which is what I guessed)
total score: 10/15
*Mussorgsky
I also recognized the Chopin from Bruce Liu's performance at the Chopin competition - but actually the style is typical Chopin, too.
Bless you for not putting spoilers! It was nice to read your input as I watched
Beethoven always sounds kinda off to me :P
Not gonna lie, I, too, found this Beethoven piece to be a bit off, maybe because it sounded like a mixture of so many of his works…from Coriolan, Leonore, even to his 5th!!!
It's interesting how you violinists don't immediately recognize Chopin. Even for me as a non musician Chopin is the most recognizable composer with an iconic sound you just can't miss. I've never even heard variations on La ci darem la mano before but I could instantly hear it was Chopin.
I immediately knew it was Chopin as well For me, there are like 3 composers I’ll immediately recognize on listening even if I hadn’t heard the piece before, those being Beethoven(drama, motivic development, sudden dynamic shifts), Chopin(lyrical virtuosity), and Bach(complex counterpoint). Then there’s pieces where I’d have a pretty good idea who wrote it, but not 100% certain if I hadn’t heard the piece(Mozart, Schubert, Liszt), those where I have absolutely no idea if I hadn’t heard it(lots of composers from Romantic and 20th century eras), and those where I often think "No way, sounds like a different composer to me"(Domenico Scarlatti for example, his keyboard works sound so similar in style to Haydn that I generally guess Haydn when I hear Scarlatti in a "Guess the composer" video)
i know, it sounded so Chopin-y to me I even started to doubt myself when they were so unsure
Those chromatic runs into the melody made me immediately think Chopin. And the fact that nearly all of Chopin's works were for solo piano.
It sounded so Chopin to me that I suspected a trap!
It sounded like Liszt to me, like his more Chopin-like pieces. The chromaric runs in the right hand delt more like Liszt than Chopin, the melody in octaves, and the #5 chords... and I've studied piano for 10 years. Overthinking it, I guess 😅
I seriously need a part two of this
Petition signed!!
I agree !
So do I
Yes please!❤
Ya! It was fun to play along!
I also got 6 out of 15. I agree with Brett tho, Stravinsky's music really sticks out you'd recognize it.
Wow good for you! I got 2 right and a couple close guesses.
Yeah same I got 6 lol
The same. I was ashamed but if you too 😅
i find stravinsky and shastakovich both really have their own unique sounds. i almost immediately can tell.
@@themike97_58 Yes, they are both horrible. To me at least.
10:18 Best part
Was wondering why a commenter wrote Two Set Violin under my Vivaldi Griselda upload. Mystery solved! Awesome!
12:45 When Eddy starts to flex his perfect pitch, you know this is going to be an epic Twoset video!!
Do you need perfect pitch to recognize a key signature? Brett's done it before I'm pretty sure.
@Humble Sparrow I think so, because if I remember correctly, in one of their videos with Singapore youth orchestra, Brett said that Eddy can figure out the key signature first, that's why he can guess the piece faster. I could be wrong though.
@@humblesparrow You need eyes to recognize _key signature,_ because it's only something that exists in written music (and it also doesn't define the key of the piece)... But I know you actually mean key. In that case, the answer is kind of yes and no at the same time. Technically speaking, recognizing a key has to do with absolute pitch, because theoretically all keys (of the same type) sound the same (like, there's no clear difference in sound between playing the same piece in E major and Eb major for example). But there are certain things that may give you clues about the key, like the way that certain instruments sound (for example on guitar, the open chords have quite distinct sounds to them, so if there's a guitar, it wouldn't be difficult to hear the key just from the chords that the guitar plays). And also, it isn't rare for violinists to have the sound of the open strings in their mind, even if they don't actually have perfect pitch. This is called pitch memory, and I would assume most people have it to some degree. How reliable one's pitch memory is, is another question (I know that my pitch memory is not very reliable - sometimes it's spot on, but other times I'm way off).
But even if you don't have perfect pitch, you can do that stuff purely by ear. You may not know the key, but you do still hear the way that the notes relate to the key. So, you could listen to the functions of the notes and chords, like "that's a V I progression in minor, and then it modulates to the relative major and does the same thing". You don't know which specific minor key it is, but you still know all of the relationships, so you still essentially know it. You could tell that "if the song is in D minor, then the chords are A7 Dm, C7 F, and if it's in B minor, then the chords are F#7 Bm, A7 D" (or whatever - you would be able to transpose it to any key).
You could also use your voice as a reference point. For example I know the lowest comfortable note I can sing, so I could figure out the key by singing my lowest comfortable note over the song, and figuring out how it relates to the key. My lowest comfortable note is F#, so let's say I sing it over a song that is in D major. I would hear that the note I'm singing sounds like the major 3rd, and that's how I would be able to tell that the song is in D major.
@@MaggaraMarine Yeah, that's what I meant, hehe. Thanks!
As a pianist, watching them struggle with piano music is hilarious.
especially more since I know the piece from memory after having relistened to hyuk lee, bruce liu & yunchan lim play them in recent competitions
"is it bad that every piano thing sounds like Chopin to me" looooolll
Lol same it was so easy for me
@@TunedNoiseas a pianist that hates classical music, I agree with them 😂 I guess I’m a disgrace to my instrument
@@nightrock4713 nah. That's why piano is the best instrument: it has a presence in pretty much every genre 😤
That augmented chord at 2:25 is a dead giveaway it's Chopin
SO TRUE THATS WHEN I KNEW
Eddy’s face at at 9:59 when the violin comes in is priceless.
This video makes me think that it's a real shame that classical music is limited to what's mainstream and frequently recorded, as there are so many unrecognized masterpieces out there. I would love to see some big classical label hunt down great, forgotten pieces and get high-quality musicians and orchestras to record them.
Unfortunately, the music world will always be driven by where the money flows towards.
For example, Beethoven's piano sonatas. Actual greater masterpieces there are the 8th, 21st, 23rd, 29th, 30+...but all that's hyped, overpopularized and overplayed is the 14th Moonlight... Even Beethoven himself said "... I have truly written better... " in a letter to a friend.
Listen to Louise Farrenc 3rd symphony you will love it
I agree, when I put on classical playlists this is what I’m expecting to find. Not “play the hits”
I love how Brett just quickly follow the intuition and lock in the answer, while Eddy wait to hear more and analyze everything
That’s just SOOOO them!
Brett's style is how I play Wordle. but in other things I'm an Eddy
7:47 I absolutely love Eddy's shocking face when he heard the voice entering like he never expects that from Vivaldi😂
10:25 Eddie was like: “Sibelius? What are you doing here?” 😂
I *adore* this format! As a classical music enthusiast, it was so much fun to try and guess alongside you, and to get some new pieces to put on my list of pieces I want to explore in depth!
There are so many more well-known composers out there, I'd love a "second edition"! Ideally another 20-minute one because I also love how long this video is! A whole 20-minute video, you guys are spoiling us!
Yes yes and yes! :D
I agree, fun, educational and some very interesting ‘new’ pieces to listen too
Respect to Editor San (I guess) who came up with this list!! I love this kind of video so much!! Definitely introduce me to more classical music pieces! Twoset Academy let's go! If anything, I hope Brett and Eddy can talk more about how they identify or at least rule out some of the options, like put their thinking process into words lol (which they did for some pieces, but I really don't know much about classical music history)😂 But anyways, still learned a lot from you guys!! Thanks!!
Agree 10000%!!!!
I agree! I know so much about classical music, but this video is a great way to introduce classical music to someone else!
Non-musician here, but I do like listening to classical music. I really learn a lot when Twoset play this kind of game. Educational and entertaining.
16:46 They laugh the exact same way, they have been friends for waaaaaay to long :D
Just an informative note on Liszt's piano music: he wrote insane amounts of it, of course there are all these massive really difficult thing, but he also wrote loads of small, minimalistic, easy things. :)
I easily guessed the first one and then quickly went downhill from there 😂. Impressive musical recognition TwoSet, these videos are always fascinating!
I literally didn’t know any of them😭😭💀
haha i only got the stravinsky and i don't even like his music :)
I guessed Chopin, then second guessed, and got it wrong.
It’s interesting that Brett formed a first impression each time, and mostly went with it, but Eddy struggled through many and eventually deduced the correct answer, both good techniques
@@LesserMoffHootkins lol it fits their personalities though because Brett is more like “fuck it” and eddy is like “wait is that right?”
its so interesting to hear these not so well known pieces. i feel like i can sense the composers' style more. its a bit odd and illogical lol since the style should formed by their famous pieces. but those piece we known too well, like close friends you forgot why you like them. but when you see some other people have the similarity reminds you of your friends, suddenly you remembered. even not the best work of these composers, still their works, still have themselves in the pieces. its so interesting relationship between art pieces and the creators.
so did you guess as well as Eddy or better? :-)
I adore Eddy's expressions when appretiating the music. Like, he is so into it! I loved that he explained the reasons why he related the piece with the composer and what he liked about it. As a major nerd on other topics with absolutely no musical training, I found that entretaining, relatable and educational. He truly transmits his passion in this video.
I agree 100 percent with what you said about eddy.
Hi TwoSet and TwoSetters!!!
I wanted to drop in this space some words that I keep deep inside. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you've been doing for the past few years, and thank you to this community for being so warm and close-knit.
That united aspect is particularly close to my heart, being the only musician in my family and circle of friends. I started the violin at the age of 9 and stopped lessons at the age of 17, for lack of time, also to escape an exam that had killed my passion. I was a passionate child at first, then a teenager who cried over her instrument and had no satisfactory level at all.
Discovering you a few years ago gave me back the ambition and the energy, but I lacked time. Today, at 20 years old, I watch your videos everyday to give myself energy and I practice every day. I understood today that the school system was weighing me down too much and that I was getting caught up in my mistakes and incompetence. I have cried on your videos more than once, not from sadness, but from new found hope.
I can't wait to make up for lost time, but with passion this time and more kindness towards myself, being better surrounded and also rubbing shoulders with this awesome TwoSetter community.
What a beautiful comment and heartfelt story. I agree this community and twoset are so supportive and encouraging. I am glad to hear you have a newfound interest in playing again. Good luck!
Off the bat, before even watching, my prediction is:
- Eddy's gonna win (possibly by a lot)
- Brett's gonna be adorably vibing to the music
- there will be some screaming
- Eddy will go full nerd-mode in-depth about a composer's style
- Brett will say "you're right" (etc) a lot but once in a while throw in a fact that opens up an additional perspective to whatever Eddy just said
- this is gonna be fun!
This is my little game with myself, now I can watch the video to see how I did
Edit: Okay, I did quite alright. Eddy won by a lot, Brett was vibing to the music (not as much as I thought though, and I beat myself up for not thinking to predict Eddy's air-violining!), definitely some screaming, Eddy *did* go a bit in-depth about composer's styles with some comments thrown in by Brett (though there wasn't enough nerd-mode for my taste). And it *was* super fun!!
When people think it's Shut Down by Blackpink, but it's actually La Campanella by Paganini
5:16 the bombastic, triumphant vibe of it and the specific sound of the strings were instantly recognisable to me, no one does that quite like tchaikovsky imo!
#7 8:01 this theme by Brahms appears in the central part of the Scherzo of his Trio for Violin, Horn and Piano in E-flat major, Op. 40 (composed 1865). As an anecdote, I had this melody in my head when I was younger and I did not know from where it came ... I even thought that I had invented it and wrote it down on a music sheet .... and one day I was at a concert and suddenly this melody emerges from this trio. It is the quintessential Brahms melody, generous, romantic, sensitive.
After 6 months of intense watching Twoset and listening to CM, I got 8 points!!!! Proud student of TwoSet Academy!! 🎓
Good job 👏 Ling Ling is proud
Between Brett and Eddy testing their knowledge, Perfect Pitch Boi flexing, Editor-San just being Editor-San, and the overall cuteness of the video just shows the real Twoset Violin theme that I'm in love with❤
PS: They look so happy when listening to music...I love them so much, just for their wonderful personalities.
I feel this is your best video so far of 2023 ! It demonstrates your enthusiasm, dedication and superior knowledge of classical music. And for other classical music lovers out there this can be quite inspiring ! I particularly loved it when Eddy was using his perfect pitch to try and anticipate a composer’s style. Well done guys. Yes us oldies out there really like your videos too. Please do a similar segment again.👏👏👏👏
Hunagarian and Finnish are related languages. They belong to the Uralic family. I am getting addicted to your videos. Keep on rocking!
I was scrolling to hopefully find this comment. :) I think this knowledge is somewhat common in Europe but not further away.
I cannot describe how excited I got when I saw TwoSet posted a 20 minute video.
Finally, food for a playlist with new pieces ❤ Let's see if I can find them all on YT ...
Yes, a new playlist, I'm looking forward to it !! 😀
Thanks for all that you do 💖
10:16 omg they were like all excited they both got Bartók and there's me who just kinda guessed Sibelius and it turned out to be right
btw the reason i guessed Sib was bc I saw some parallelisms w the violin concerto
Throwing my voice into the pile clamoring for more nerdy videos like these ones. This was great :)
That last piece was unmistakably Rach, he loves to build tension like that and bring the climax in the most dramatic way possible and that’s why he’s my favorite :)
...and yet, it sounded nothing like Rachmaninoff. I don't think it was unmistakable. Neither Eddy nor Brett thought so either.
@@maryvallettakeith6146 well to me it was but maybe that’s because I’ve played a good amount of his music. That climax is definitely a signature sound of his in his piano literature which would make sense why Brett and Eddy wouldn’t know who wrote it. Rachmaninoff wrote awesome symphonies but he was obviously primarily a pianist, a lot of his signature sounds appear in his piano works, in fact the climax sounds super similar to one of his concerti I think either the third or the rhapsody. To me it was clear who wrote that as soon as the climax came.
@@maryvallettakeith6146 It's very early Rachmaninoff, before his voice became strongly defined. It sounded more like Wagner to me.
Wagner is famous for exactly that if nothing else.
I agree! He is also my favorite, and it was the one I was most certain of!
As a jazz saxophonist, I’m just happy that I guessed 1 right. I got Vivaldi😂
9:57 I recognized the sound of Henning Kraggerud and his Guarneri at once! So powerfull and rich! Then i knew that it had to be some nordic music, because he has never recorded any Bartok
I have no musical training but I did get five right. I guess being a lighting tech for nine years for the Royal NZ Ballet payed off. Great channel lads.
we have brett just guessing and going with the flow and on the other hand eddy analyzing every bit
Would be cool to see them explore the works of female composers (there are a lot!) :)
I agree !!!
For the curious, some really cool composers to check out: Francesca Caccini, Béatrice de Die, Barbara Strozzi, Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre, Fanny Mendelssohn, Clara Schumann, Mel Bonis, Lili Boulanger (personal fav, Eddy would love her!),
Yeah, lily Boulanger would be really fun to see
@@Elophee thanks, I'd also say check out Leokadiya Kashperova who is very unknown despite having been an incredible composer and teacher of Stravinsky!
@@octaviamarshall1266 thanks! So sad that such great composers aren't more known!
i'm not a musician, but i do listen to classical music while working, and surprisingly i guessed the works of my two favourite composers (Tchaikovsky/Rachmaninoff) right! 😆 The rest had me stumped though bahaha
thanks for the fun video guys!
i wanna see eddy listen to pop music and have him guess the chords as they change
12:51
7:35 the reaction to Vivaldi is so funny and cute Eddy’s chuckles “hehe” and Brett’s “neh neh neh” 😂
The first piece was used as the opening of 'Stephen The King', a very iconic hungarian rock opera. I'm so glad I heard it on this channel 😊
More than doubling the age of the two guys and having listen to classical music for more than 45 years I only could guess 11, from all of them exactly Eddy's guess plus one more. Bravo Brett and Eddy.
I've always loved lesser known pieces. A lot of holst is over shadowed by the planets, but theres treasures like "A song of the night" hidden within. Mozart KV 617 is another one that comes out of no where.
When they say classical music is calm and soothing💀
Stravinsky: 9:19
It’s not a twoset video without Eddy flexing his perfect pitch
10:30 - What was Sibelius doing composing Hungarian-sounding music? Well Finnish and Hungarian are the only relatively major European languages that are not Indo-European. Both being Finno-Ugrian languages, they are _very_ distantly related and have similar grammar, even though they share almost no words. As a result of this connection, Finns and Hungarians often study each other's languages, even though the cultures are so different.
I enjoyed playing along the game but I also enjoyed seeing how two sets react when they encounter new music. PLEEEASE drop part 2 of this.
The Brahms "Albumblatt" is reused in his Horn Trio Op.40 (a piece that I'm actually learning in my chamber music class).
Yes! That's what I thought. I've just checked it to be sure. More precisely he used it in the trio of the scherzo (2nd mov), but in a flat minor instead of a minor
Yeah, that's how I recognized it.
I rearched for this comment! When I heard the first few notes, I immediately recognised the melody and I was 100% sure about it being part of his Trio for French Horn, Violin and Piano. My next thought was : this is not so rarely known as the other pieces mentioned in the video...and then I realised that the Horn and the violin are not coming in ...so I was about to check it, too. But you proved me right! And cool that I am not the only one that knows the gorgeous Trio!
Also, respect for working on the Trio. It has a beast of a piano part.
@jb1980ist Thanks :) It's a lot of work, especially in the last movements (those left hand octaves are killing me), but the piece is so much devine and beautiful.
I'm not a musician, love listening to classical music but most of them I don't know by whom, which piece, what period. So I always come to your channel for some education. But that last piece, I immediately thought, "Oh! That feels like the Isle of the Dead. So maybe Rachmaninoff?" Well, whaddaya know... I feel very accomplished today. Thank you, boys, this was fun :D
Hey, that's pretty good! For me it sounded like Rachmaninoff because of the build up and crescendo; it's like his piano concertos that I love very much
We need to do more of these. I am so excited to hear lesser-known gems!
The first piece is used as a prelude for THE most popular hungarian rock-opera, István a király, which hungarians listen basically every year. I recognized it in a heartbeat :) It was so nice to hear it here!
Yes, exactly! This was my reaction: Is it István, a király? And I was humming it together with the recording, smiling as it brought back memories from my childhood... 🙂
This is by far one of my favorite recent TwoSet videos. Please do more of these where we found out more about classical repertoire!
Some time ago you put out two videos where you discussed epic performances & pieces we must listen to. Can you do another one of those videos? It’s nice to just chill out and discover new music.
Like so they can see if you want this too
I love this concept. Please make it a series!
I can't believe you didn't get the Tchaikovsky Piano concerto 3. It may only be the 1st movement but it's a fave of mine.
Wow incredible skills they most recognized the composer by just the taste, the style, the Melodies, the feeling, etc good job 👍
10:12 the best confusion to realization expression 😆
Just watching twoset thinking about and discussing classical music is such a treat!
What this video told me the most was that no one knows what Dvorak is supposed to sound like - I guessed him a few times too!
Watching Eddy react to these pieces is the most entertaining thing I've seen all day
7:25 aint no way im the only one who thought this was boccherini's minuet and got pranked half a second later
Please please part 2! This video is sooo good for many reasons
This was one of my favorite videos. So engaging. I was so invested and actually surprised how much I was able to navigate through this.
As history enthusiast, my favourite part in this kind of game is when you two give some background stories behind the facts so it doesn't sound one-dimensional and also piques my curiosity. I'm pretty excited to educate-slash-entertain myself to find another background stories that you haven't covered yet. 🤓📚📝
Feel the same way here
I went to a classical performance for the first time yesterday, it was St Matthew Passion, and I loved it! I discovered a lot of classical music thanks to TwoSet, and I am very happy to now listen to all these amazing pieces! Thank you so much for all the videos Brett and Eddy!
wow, was it the whole Passion? if so, you have endurance, lol. i like it too. was disappointed when i went to a concert that was suppose to play excerpts but they only sang 2 arias and 3 choruses. 20 minutes out of almost 3 hours! i felt cheated.
@@oxoelfoxo I went to a full performance! It was a very long indeed haha, in the end I couldn't really pay attention that well anymore, but I loved it, it was beautiful!
Goodness, I don't think even I can pay attention to the entire thing, and I've been listening to classical music for 25 years!
Wow what a great piece to start concert going to with.
Congrats on jumping in at the deep end and not drowning. The St Matt Passion never fails to move me to tears. Just stunning stuff.
What an excellent, delightfull musical selection !!! Just loved it, and increase my playlist 😊
This video really had me thinking and listening to the subtleties and techniques of the composers. A very cerebral video.
This was awesome. Not only do we get to hear beautiful music and learn about new pieces, but in such an enjoyable format as well! This is a winner! Bring it's fresh but I want more!
As a Band and Choir kid, this was way harder than I expected. Though I wasnt completely hopeless, it wasnt easy. Y’all did a great job
Brett's reactions to Sibelius and Rachmaninoff were the best 😂😂
That's crazy, I've actually sung that duet from Don Giovanni but I couldn't recognize the theme in that variation. I also thought Chopin though!
This is really a brilliant plan to introduce more deep knowledge of classical music....
It’s a great day when twoset uploads :)
Loved thjs episode. Some had me pranked too but I got most. Bring more episodes like this, please.
Throwing this out, I LOVE this type of episode, not only it adds more to may to listen list, it also helps me appreciate the many type of composers style better through your 'nerdy' analysis. Please don't hesitate to show that to us, it's really cool and entertaining and informative!
Thank you for another fun vid!
This has to be one of my favorite videos you’ve ever done! So interesting, educational, fun, with a dash of chaos. 😂❤
Two amazing things happened this morning: this video came out, and I got the announcement email for the local symphony's upcoming season! Be still, my classically-inclined heart.
I just want to say that you guys have been such a huge encouragement, and I've started practicing more because of you, lol.
The laughter that I get from watching your videos always makes me feel better. Y'all have brung me out of some dark spots, and I appreciate your existence, lol. Thanks for existing :)
You really should make more content like this, I love it
I did 12/15 (4 of them I even knew the pieces), not bad.
But I'm just quite shocked that anyone would consider Schubert's Quartetsatz an "unknown work"... °_°
Kids: TH-cam is the new classroom! We learn more online than in school!
Parents: No such thing
Twoset: Hold my bow
please do this again! THis was so fun! i loved playing along! i used to tutor music history back in college and this is how we would learn the excerpts. style! thanks so much for another great video!
Thank youuuu for the video! Loved finding out about those new discoveries ❤
Ayeeee OG TwoSet! Love the musical education + fun to play along. I usually play this game when I'm listening to the radio (guess the composer, or at least guess the era haha)
Great game, they could do that one again!
Schubert Quartettsatz is hardly an obscure piece I thought?! and the Brahms melody was recognizable from his Horn trio.
Love this format !
I'm not a musician, but I really love classical music. It was very nice to guess together with you and really feel the style of the composers! Years of watching the channel have taken their toll < 3
