That is a killer because some notes require tons of positional changes. And the fingerboard doesn't really help--it's all empty space with no marks for any kind of position. You have to memorize the position.

I was doing trills before I learned vibrato. I dont even know, man
Me too
Same
me too but i also play piano so
Thst was me, I learnt the basics of trills at Grade 2 and vibrato at Grade 4.
Well, I was made to learn up and down staccato at 2 grade... Absolutely a disgrace. Probably a mad teacher
Look at Brett's face when he does melody with the bow and left hand pizzicato XD

Hello Izzy
As someone who's just (barely) started violin, this was very educational. I'm still struggling to even do an upbow without the bow bouncing on the string!
And how's it going now? I'm soon to be in the position you were in 10 months ago!
I find upbows easier - it's down bows I bounce on, hope your progress has gone well the past year. I'm on week four currently and loving it!

@@user-nx1zs1ef6l Hi
When vibrato is considered c grade and me and my grade 7 tiny ass hands still struggle
same dude but the only differance is i play viola
@@ecstasyegg8870 I feel for you...
Well, let me put it this way. Improper, wiggle vibrato is C grade. Actual good vibrato is more like A grade because it requires lots of practice. The difficult part about vibrato is knowing where to place it and how much. Actual vibrato control consists of being able to do different kinds of vibrato. For example, you can start a long note with no vibrato and ease it in. Or if you're playing a slow section, you vibrato through each and every note. The high-class vibrato consists of using the vibrato to enrich the notes, and the amount placed into each and every note varies musically. Plus, high-class violinists can play through a whole horde of difficult notes moving up to the top of the E-string and vibrate on that last note that's longer to really charge the music. In case many of you have not tried, vibrato is harder the higher you go up in position. Hence, I disagree with the video. Proper vibrato (those of pro violin experts) is at least A class, if not higher.
grade 6 here and I feel the exact same....
tiny hands pianist struggling with octaves 😔✊
Sometimes I feel ashamed that I know more about a violin than my own instrument...
Don't worry, if you play violin, you will feel more depressed because there is a ten years old kid playing better than you.

@@yvonnestea6397 hei, I don't play any instruments. Knowing everyone is better than me at something makes me depressed. Knowing there are 10 years old asian kids better than everyone makes me think I am a useless being.

What if Ling Ling was the violin
It could never be played.
Plot twist😱😱
Making epic, sexy comments since 1945.
Who is lingling
He wouldn't even need the bow
I remember that when I started playing violin an exercise we had to do was play around half a dozen variants of twinkle twinkle little star, and I really didn't know why until today when I realized those were literally just the song only on semiquavers, martele, spicatto, sautille and ricochet
I had to do those for piano😂
as for me playing piano, and discovering TwoSet a few years ago, *I learned that violin struggles with moving to another octave perfectly* that's just.. wow
Imagine being a pianist and finding out 12ths are laughably easy on guitar. (you can literally fret them with one finger)
I’d argue that vibrato is a little bit higher on the list
MatHM 14 Yeah same. I think it comes more naturally to some people than others, but it’s pretty difficult to have solid vibrato.
I thought it would be at least a B or an A
Really? I can do vibrato decently but I can’t do too many things ranked above it. But I do think that the double stops were put way too high.
Oh, well, I know vibrato since 3rd class of music school. I don't think it's difficult, but it's only my opinion, so don't feel offend. Xd, sorry😅😂❤
good vibrato really isn't that easy but compared to everything else i think it's spot on the list is fair lol

Is it just me or do the double harmonics sound really beautiful?
yes it does, except when YOU are the one playing it
2:58 had my ears RINGING
Ling ling is classified as its own category of difficulty: lingpossible
Siege and its called lingpossible because only ling ling can make it possible™
Didn’t even know tenths were a thing until I watched this. Now that I think about it, what would a tenth sound like in the first inversion position?
Considering a 10th is a 3rd but with notes in different octaves, its inversion is just a 6th :)
@@slapmyfunkybass It is an ambiguous question indeed, but I supposed he meant what was the inversion of the interval. As the interval of a tenth can be reduced to a third with notes on different octaves, the result of its inversion is a sixth.
Like a third?
It's not about how easy a piece is, it's the skills and effort you put into it.

Nicely done. That was both entertaining and informative. Thanks for a few ideas on the next thing to pound my head against.
This vid is underrated... I actually underestimated violin a lot... and i started thinking if i have the time and effort to try mastering it.....
2:42 OMFG guys, for the first time in thirty years, Brett has changed his facial expression!
P.S.: speaking as a complete beginner, some of these rankings are clearly off. I still can't play martelé after a whole year of practicing. Ricochet, on the other hand, I could play no problem on day one. As soon as I picked up the violin and played my very first note, it was ricochet! :-D
then it’s probably a bad ricochet.
Facepalm @Jole Schütz. The proverbial German with his proverbial lack of any sense of humour. Hilarious.
That was literally the whole joke. That he had shaky bow on his very first note. Because of course he did.
Nobody plays ricochet on their very first note _on purpose._ Duh. At that point nobody even knows what ricochet is.
What are you even doing watching this channel if the simplest of jokes flies way over your head. This channel is all jokes all the time, mate. And many of them are way more sophisticated than this one.

Oh please excuse me for singlehandedly ruining a whole comment section
why again are we making such a huge deal out of it? go back practise.
I had a smile on my face that grew and grew and then my jaw dropped at fingered octave trills, lol WOW! When did your jaw drop? XD
Playing octaves like this is really hard. I have them in a piece I'm playing right now and it's really frustrating to keep the intonation on an acceptable level.
As someone who plays piano, and plays violin for school orchestra, I can say that the vibrato was truly amazing.
Fingered octave trills are hard, but very doable in higher positions. The reason is that the higher in position you go, the less spacing there is for each octave, so you are stretching your fingers less. The hard octave trills are the ones in first position because these require the most finger stretching!
Double harmonics are so beautiful! You guys are amazing !
There are 10 levels of playing the violin. Please pay very close attention to this...

I've been a classical music fan since I can remember and spent 15 years in a choir and I had NO idea that when violinists move their fingers back and forth they are creating vibrato.. I just thought it was something more advanced players naturally did.. Had no idea until watching 2set. Thanks guys!

They look like they're having so much fun with it :)
As someone who doesn't play the violin, do violinist actually use all of them? Cause the ones near the end just seem like combinations of them for fun
Alexander it depends on the song. Some times none of the harder ones are used. But I’m sure they are in a few pieces that have been composed. I play the viola so I wouldn’t ever think I’d have to do any of them 😂
I've seen quite a few songs with lots of those last really difficult ones. They're super professional songs though that I can only dream of learning one day. Soon I can get back to my violin and I'll begin my Ling Ling training!! Let's hope 9 years of practice won't be forgotten in my 4 year break lol!
Upbow staccato is in loads of high level songs, same with double harmonics
you guys mean pieces, right? XD
Listen to (Nel Cor Piu Non Mi Sento) by Paganini if you wanna see a lot of the hardest techniques put together. Especially the last few ones.
