I’m not playing out of tune, I play m i c r o t o n e s
No, I’m not a bad violinist that pretends to be the fastest violinist in the world, it’s called *S U L P O N T I C E L L O*
There are music systems with microtones, check some indian pieces
I do not have bad intonation I am inventing a new technique called sul ponticello
If you dont mind to practice and play just random out of tune notes like the guy in the video it will sound awful. But there is beautiful microtonal music which is btw very hard to intonate properly.

artificial harmonic glissando
aka the “oui oui” glissando

@@inthelimelight2680 what

@@inthelimelight2680 i dont- what?
6.5 minutes of the violin being violated lol
Microtonal music is dope, though. These two violin bois are a bit too afraid of contemporary stuff. Probably because of the chord extensions that can be spooky to a classical musician.
Viola-ated
Those "sub-harmomic". Oof
Viola-ted

I didn`t know that everything that I did in the orquestra when I was bored had a name :)
Great names like "I don't even know what this is called"
"orquestra"?

@Shuncey Balba lol so is everyone. There are only 7 now.
All of these can be summarized into “things I do that make my teacher mad when we’re supposed to be quiet”
True, but when used properly in compositions these techniques can be devastatingly effective!

The circular bowing was actually interesting.
Artemis Fowl [2nd Channel]
It sounded like distorted game music
At first it sounded like an audio glitch but then I tried it in real life and it sounded like that!
I liked the pizz glissando too
5:07 was also interesting (when you turn up the volume)
6:01 Bow Screw glissando also sounded very cool

thanks for playing im gonna go die now
Im watching this as a guitarist and im just like “wait a minute more than a couple of these are just guitar techniques on violin”
Which ones?
I'm a guitarist too
Pizzato and sliding
Silent fingering
Slap
Are guitar techniques
@@arbs-5164 Plus harmonics and tapping (though tapping on guitar is different)!
@@BlitzballMadness also harmonic guys is diferent
@@nathanpentury5201 I though natural harmonics were the same on both (just picked/plucked vs bowed)? Obviously pinch and artificial harmonics on guitar don't translate well onto violin.
5:52 “I don’t even know what this is called”- My conductors has legitimately asked us to use this technique FOR A CONCERT. The composition was borderline sacrilegious.
Piece?
it’s been 2 years since you commented this but i still have so many questions
I really want to now the name of the piece now
piece name???? lmao
Was it for Brett's Lo-fi?
'It's called subharmonics, mom.'

3:15
Since when was playing like a beginner a professional thing
That Oboe HAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHA
Everyone: this is weird
Me:
*Sits in the corner using these techniques in composition for some reason*
Literally watching this whilst composing..... And yup I'm considering using them....
*col legno breaks my heart*
just like how it almost breaks my bow
It should be marked "col stunt bow" XD
It was even used in Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique and Mahler's Second

3:29 Scatch tone
3:40 Circular bowing
3:50 Subharmonic
4:16 Play behind the bridge
4:28 Brush over the bridge
4:57 Play on the tailpiece
Can you tell how it is written in the notes, or are there any symbols?
@@hemharutyunyan Hmm... I'm not sure since I'm not a string player, but I think most of these would be written explicitly in words (e.g. 'play on the tailpiece', and then the notes may have a different notehead). Some will have normal notation (e.g. pizz glissando, they will just indicate pizz and probably have a gliss line just like a normal note). For more information, you can probably just google, and if you cannot find them on google, there probably isn't an agreed way to notate it because the technique is not commonly used. You can then invent your own notation, as long as it's clear for the performer (if it's too complex, you can also consider to explain it in the programme note)
Thank you!!
@@hemharutyunyan Look up the notation utilised by Penderecki for these techniques, many of which he incorporated into his music. A lot of these he would notate by using headless stems with different shapes around half way through the length of the stem.
@@cooldude123817 Thank's a lot

Contemporary Violinist: Artificial Harmonic Glissando
TwoSet Violin: you mean violin charades sound effect?
This looks like what people do in orchestra class
"it sounds familiar"
Maybe brett still remember that one time he and eddie compose a sonata under 1 minute video...

The bridge one was so painful ahhhh
When you're a violinist and you have a twoset Viola shirt
Ethan Lammayot Ling Ling is proud
In this case, I find "If you can play it, then don't" very suitable.
This is just my “practice routine” summed up in one video.
As a contemporary composer, I DIED watching this. This is so true, yet hilarious.
"Learn how to do violin ASMR in 2018 with TwoSetViolin".
And never forget....
If you can play it quickly,
You can play it slowly
...that's actually a legitimate practice strategy btw
What about playing on the piano strings with the violin bow? 😂
Or on wine glasses with violin bow
Piano guys reference 😁😁
Chesed Bongcawel
Yes thank you
the silent finger tapping was basically violin asmr 😂😂😭
It’s funny since I’m a cellist, Luciano Berio uses that in his _Sequenza XIV_ for cello, and you have to do tapping and silent fingering at the beginning at the same time. It’s kinda soothing actually :)
Another title: techniques that 5th graders use if they're trying to be cool......or if they just don't know how to play😂😂
As an aspiring composer, this is a great video for violin extended techniques. Thanks guys!
extended does not necessarily mean good
AnimeBoi1348 Most extended techniques can be used very effectively if you understand their textual context and importance. Just because it sounds weird doesn’t mean it’s bad.
1:53 Oui oui!
5:51 Brett's iconic "Stepping on Cockroaches" technique
5:38 Eddy looks like he's shooting a bow and arrow
Ill tell you what’s interesting
If you can play it slowly, you can play it quickly
If you can sit on a sofa for 24 hours, you can run a marathon
Half of the techniques are asmr content
As someone who plays a lot of new music I've done just about every single one of these in performance. Some of them can actually be very effective when done right!
Side note...love that violinist instinct to do something with your left hand even when you're bowing behind the bridge and it'll make no difference whatsoever to the pitch lol
Combining two techniques at once!! Bowing behind the bridge while doing silent fingering. :)
"I dont know what this is called" is sometimes called "twist bow" and works on the (muted) strings as well. Although you then might need to loosen the hair (of the bow) a bit to get it to work properly.
Thanks for an awesome channel!
I read on Wikipedia and here is what it’s called. It’s called _chewing._
*An effect sometimes used for humorous effect by string players, “chewing” is performed by loosening the bow hair and placing the bow, bow hair side up, against the back of the instrument. The bow is then rotated causing the bow stick to pop and crunch as it goes over the coarse bow hairs. This effect, which sounds remarkably like a person chewing something crunchy, is fairly quiet and could benefit from amplification.*
You just Composition majors a shload of new ideas! 😆
well I hope not.. if other composers find this as source of ideas, daaaaamn XD
@@rachsky1224 Comp majors at my university already do this :p
Speaking of ideas, I’ve been having composers block for a while... I’m either not satisfied with what I compose or I have trouble finishing pieces. Any advice from composers out there?
@@jeremyevans1135 well thats really bad if the majority of composers nowadays need only this to create something... nothin more to tell...
Who'll be practicing 50 hours per day in 2019?

Me. Have to prepare for Texas All State
4:57 onwards
And here we see the emerging stages (facial expressions) of when something you didn’t think would work actually goes extremely well
1:54 "This sounds familiar"
Artificial harmonic glissando aka oui oui aka little annoying animals in their charges ahah
And I thought circular breathing is crazy.
Then I saw circular bowing
Playing behind the bridge is nOt a 2018 technique, because my mum had to play it in 1973
But it is a contemporary one if you compare it to 19th or 18th century techniques.
I guess they meant 20th and 21th centuries.
Subharmonics is legit hard though, which is why (to my ear at least) Brett only actually produces the subharmonic combination tone once very briefly in that demo.
Offhand, the only places I'm used to hearing harmonics done reliably:
- Some pipe organs, with two smaller pipes working together to simulate a low note that would usually require a much bigger pipe
- Some oktavists (very deep-voiced singers in a particular mostly-Russian choral tradition)
INTERESTING level 5.
Me: "is this ASMR?"
I'm starting a go fund me for your violins for every dollar donation Eddy and Brett will stop abusing their violins anything helps link in the description
2:17 Um I think you mean 2 HOURS [ASMR] Violin Tapping Tingles (NO TALKING) for Sleep, Studying, and Relaxation
Wait a second, we did the crunchy sound by pushing the bow under the instrument thing and that fact that it's an actual thing gets me every time. 20th century composition truly is a wonder
3:02 davie 504 wants to know your location
*s l a p p* the violin
just kidding don't do that pls
The most interesting would be 15 notes a second
Why?
Because it sounds like all of those techniques combined
Another one : Blowing on the strings
Just imagine a piece that starts with the cello section playing on the tailpiece! It sounded great
Damn, now I am calling pick slides "plectrum glissando" XD
Sounds like a viola to me
No harm intended
*I N T E R E S T I N G 'N T 'N T*
5:54 Sounded like your violin was going to rip in half!
Thank you for this breakdown!
Ling ling can do all of these at once and it would be rated 40/10 INTERESTING
I turn my phone to Airplane mode,it didn't fly.
I turn my VIOLA to Sacrilegious Boy mode,it didnt play quickly,instead it played it super slow,why????

@@clairev.g.7361 haha yeah that would be great
Listen "Guerro" by Lachenmann
@@math9172 You say that but I've seen pieces with various materials stuck in the strings, using a mallet to hit the strings and rubbingrings with various things. Then there's the wooden block on the keys, face on the keys, tapping the underside of the keyboard, depressing keys without playing them to get sympathetic vibrations, flutter pedalling, forearm tone clusters, all kinds of other techniques as well
The playing in the bridge one makes my hair stand on end. Ugh. What a WONDERFUL sound
It’s not a pleasant sound but it is *I N T E R E S T I N G.*
I find microtonal most interesting but is it contemporary? It has always been a part of the kemenche. The middle eastern instrument became the medieval rebec and maybe one could say that the violin is contemporary!
To name and master the numeral microtones in every semitone and knowing all hijaz and maqam is a challenge worthy any Ling Ling.
Good point. I recently started listening to Middle Eastern music and I like it.
I guess people often forget there is other music apart from European?
This is actually very sad that a lot of people don't know about it. There's so much variety! I also like gamelan music and I am looking for something else non-European to listen to.

“I don’t know what this is even called” should be “Popping Bubble wrap on the violin”
Totally Ale stepping on a cockroach
Apparently the actual name many composers and musicians give it is called “chewing” or a “crunch sound” as it sounds similar to someone chewing a crunchy food item.
