I love how Brett was unfazed by Eddy’s presentation at the ending until Eddy said “up-bow staccato” 😂😂
He looks so confused hâhhaaa
And then there is downbow staccato
he tried, Eddy not ling ling (yet)
It's not legit till you do it again 😐
@@Perryz7ppq1
"resist the urge to go faster"
"don't play quickly just because you can"
"if you can practice quickly, you can practice slowly"
I felt that in my soul
I should print this out and put it on my wall 😂
Ikr. It's so hard to play Bach's Concerto for Two Violins mov. 1 slowly for me
I read this comment right when Eddie said it
The amount of times I and my voice teacher tell me this is astronomical
All the violinists in my grade including me right before our orchestra concert:
Brett should have flexed his upbow staccato every time Eddy did with his perfect pitch all these years
He is too chill for that lol
Or his perfect pizz
@@Iris-fp4uk left hand pizz go brrr
Maybe he can overpower him with his perfect pizz too lol
*perfect rizz**
2:40 initial attempt
10:12 final result
That's some SERIOUS improvement. The magic of putting in your 40 hours
40 hours a day keeps the growing sense of failure away :DDD
Ooh thanks for the stamps!
Love that Brett looks so confused and thought he got pranked 😅 but then hearing Eddy said about his learning “upbow staccato”, Brett immediately shows support and gives out some helpful ideas
Okay, so Brett can do up-bow staccato while Eddy has perfect pitch. Interesting.
And left hand pizz and double harmonics
Now they only need to meet the "Pinky thrill" girl and the "Three scales on the G string" monster to become The Fantastic 4 of violin 🤩
Perfect pitch boy vs perfect pitz boy
@@TheVulcanBard it’s written as pizz and read as pitz ^^ but yeah hehe
A Yin and Yang moment.
Haha Brett is so traumatised from pranks he's always on high alert if he doesn't know what Eddy is doing 😂
The RUclips algorithm led me to this channel and I got hooked. You guys have inspired me to pick up my violin that has been sitting unused for years at my parents' house. When I moved out for post-secondary, I didn't want to disturb my new neighbours and just stopped playing. I got it tuned up, and then I muddled through some scales, twinkle twinkle, hot cross buns, and then butchered happy birthday. I guess I'm going to have to practice a bit before I move on to any Paganini.
Sonorous expertise (Eddy) and Mechanical expertise (Brett)
No wonder the TwoSet duo get along so effortlessly from a musical standpoint, these two elements are the fundamental blocks for making music at all
fr brett's technique is just too good man
I miss eddy’s old channel for his advice and instruction. I hope both he and Brett put out a series of those someday.
I remember watching all of them. I believe he took them down because he said he doesn't align with them anymore or doesn't believe in those methods anymore and doesn't want to spread it around when there are better ways of approaching stuff now. However, I would love to see what has changed and why he feels that way about it now.
I hope he sees this. They were awesome and helped me so much when I started!
In my perfect world, Brett and Eddie put out a video playlist on playing violin, and also for just general musicality. But also, maybe with the fandom have compositions put into a book with increasing difficulty of fan, made music that they could share in their site or some thing. And they could teach their own TwoSet course.
Same bro
YES, I love these videos, they dont need to bring it back, just let the old ones avaliable😢❤
Love how Brett instantly changes into supportive mode as soon as he gets what Eddy has been doing!
I feel like I'm holding my breath when he played for Brett. You want Eddy to do well after all that effort. I think he accomplished it and I'm so glad he took us along for the ride
aaa this reminds me of the time eddy bought christmas gifts for brett a couple years back;-;
i love how cautiously brett enters the room juxtaposed with eddy's "kid showing off his macaroni art from school" energy
too cutee
I like how Brett gives honest critiques. His praise isn’t empty because he notes the areas that need further work or are not as good as they could be, and where improvement could be made. So when he then says this or that was good, or he was impressed, it really means something. Good enough to deserve a bubble tea!

How about 10:13 ?
Thank you :)
Thank youuuuuu!
Watching Brett's initial empty reaction was the funniest part lol
Great job Eddy, very impressive!
10:45 omg, I lost it at the cricket sounds 🤣 loving their dynamics with each other; Eddy trying his hardest to impress Brett and Brett being a supportive friend (after realizing what this was all about) 🤣
Eddy, your wrist is a little too low when you start the upbow staccato. If your wrist is low in comparison with your fingers, your fingers have no space to impulse the stroke upwards. Upbow staccato is primarily centred around the fingers and thumb as these are the only muscles sensitive enough to do the movement. By way of preparing for your upbow staccato run, drop your fingers in relation to your wrist, then martellato up. As you work up proficiency, you can upgrade martellato for a true flying stroke, then add speed. Notice when you were doing it at the end of your 7 days, your wrist was higher compared to when you started, but it was still lower than it should be for full efficiency.
Upppp
Up up up
Well dang it. My teacher - who famously had a VERY fluid and relaxed wrist - told me to tighten things up for that passage, then just kinda "think the Minuet in G" (quote from "The Music Man") if you will. Not helpful. Your detailed explanation makes me wish I was that age again instead of closer to the end, and certainly no longer needing to learn this stroke.
You seriously think that the Two Set need an advice about staccato from an amateur? they know, they just make content. By the way, there are different ways to do staccato, actually there are better ones than what you describe.
@@MishaSkripach God your comment projects so much devoted two set worshipping staunch defender energy. Get a grip on that superiority complex ya little snob...
Literally the embodiment of the classical music stereotype for condescension.
I feel so relieved that upbow staccato is so difficult even for professional violinists! Them being real and honest is one of the many reasons I love twoset!
We don’t talk about down bow staccato
@@pooppee8146 Shhhh! Don't mention it!
it was actually fun to watch eddy's thought process when learning a new technique, i'm gonna be using his tactics in my own playing!!
yooo nice eve pfp
@@Keiisah ay thank you! i’m always looking for eve listeners lol
Yes, it was really fun and helpful. Eddy totally reminds me of what I probably look like when I practice but much better. Everything from shaking the arm out to looking at the reflection in the window to going "blah" when you sound terrible just really hit home for me in a hilarious way.
So good how humble they are to not hide their progress or what they can‘t do yet. Love your authenticity. Actually I‘d really love to see more practice videos!
Eddy showing off his practice skills is a gift to humanity.
This feels almost like a weekly outfit check
I would love to see more videos of you guys practicing and learning and trying to get better. As a musician, I think everyone is able to relate to that feeling of personal improvement. Love to see more of this in the future
Agreed, practice tips and sessions are one of the best ways to learn from other musicians!!
“If you can practice quickly you can practice slowly” is un-ironically one of the best pieces of practice advice.
"That was so lit, my buttcheeks were clenching." -Eddy 2023
😂
I love Brett being the super chill one who can do the intense technique like, 😐.
While eddy is the show off without actual technique
@@ajchandra7735how is eddy showoff?
Congrats Eddy for this huge improvement!
How about a follow-up with Brett explaining the phyics of flying upbow staccato and how to make it fiery? I'm not sure I know more about how to actually tackle upbow staccato after the video. I've been trying what Eddy did - with a totally different result.
this format is great, i enjoyed it so much!!! as we got to the end i was like "omg hope the performance is for brett": i was NOT disappointed! (his blank face the first time through was hilarious too)
Eddy, you deserve a Bubble Tea! Your Up-Bow Staccato Determination Paid Off You Sounded Wonderful! 🎻🎶
eddy: “upbow staccato”
auto generated subtitles: *I’ll bust cicada*
😏
Who here never misses a twoset video
Edit:OMG I didn't expect so many likes
Me
Meeeee
I’d like but it’s at 40 likes and I don’t want to ruin it :)
Lol I am the 69th like 😂😂😂
Me
i’ve been struggling with this EXACT passage for the past couple weeks and this vid has helped me improve sm- tysm eddy :)
Duude! This looks just like the old videos!! I love it!
eddy breaking down on day three and just crunching is way too relatable 😭
As someone who is simultaneously beginning medical school and learning Rhapsody in Blue on piano, this made me so energized. Way to go Eddi, but that's all I'm going to say because I gotta go practice (and study)!
*Eddy
Holy Moly, I’m also going to med school and also study piano! Wish you luck!
@@ScriabinistheGOAT24 Best of luck with your exams!
So you're a doctor and a musician... your mother must be so proud.
@@ScriabinistheGOAT24❤❤❤❤
I love how Bretts reward for Eddy is a bubble tea 😂
Eddy's final result after 1 week is great improvement.
Remember to practise 40 hours a day guys!
For some reason, I kept hearing Eddy saying "violin" as "violent" so it sounded like he said he was going to learn an "incredibly difficult violent technique"
Can we make this a series pls
Also, how Brett automatically went to his spot at the table :D
5:15 Eddy never fails to flex his perfect pitch haha
i love how this video is geared toward people who might not be musically inclined, but it is still a great watch for those of us who are.
I not only see the process of myself trying to play up-bow Staccato and fail/lose patient and confidence, but also I see a bit of young Eddy in the (very much missed) Eddy Chen RUclips Channel!! Really love the way Eddy talks when he is talking about violin and classical music!!
Seriously, this video just reminded me, that TwoSet Violin is the best content an aspiring musician can possibly watch. 🥰
Absolutely incredible to learn that so quickly. I havent been on the channel much but am enthralled to come back to see such an epic challenge that Eddy took on. This is why I admire and adore you both and the musician community in general. Stay beautiful, my friends ❤
i really appreciate you uploading this. the first piece that forced me to really work on this technique was the 1st movement of Seitz's student concerto no. 3, but i still end up fudging it half the time. it was encouraging to see an extremely skilled violinist experience the same types of issues i've dealt with when doing this technique (e.g., wanting to tense the right arm, inconsistent pressure when moving up the bow, left wrist tension, etc.), and then getting to see your approach to isolating the problems and applying targeted exercises for improvement. going out of your way to use performance as a test is an underrated point too.
i'm still at the "sometimes i get it and go 'wooo!' and smile" phase, and it made me smile seeing you do the same thing each time you got it, as well as when you got it while performing for brett. great stuff! :))
I feel like Eddy’s sound has been improved a lot in the past few years. Good job Eddy!!
One of the important things from this vid for me: never stop practicing even after playing an instrument for years. Thanks u guys for making such high quality content ❤
Eddy: “I played staccato.”
Brett: “OHHHHHHH”
This is some of my favourite content. Its wholesome and feels like im more connected to the musical journey haha
Loved this video. I miss when Twoset did more practice themed videos. I always love their content but I would like to see more of this.
Love those two. They're like talent, charm and humor in a blender.
I can't believe I am actually enjoying this episode as a non-violin player. Good job Eddy!
So Brett is a master at both up bow staccato and left hand pizz? I think I might choose that over perfect pitch
yeah, i’d say brett is technically stronger than eddy.
Brett is also good at double harmonics which Eddy can't do
But Eddy has more musicality and feeling in his playing.
1:02 12:41 i love how editor-San is abusing of brett’s lofi, it gets me everytime😭
So nice to see Eddy practice and Brett be like his teacher. Next time the other way around, guys. We love this kind of dedication and friendship
This reminds me of your old channel, Eddy! I love this and how transparent you are and continued techniques/skills development! Thank you
1:39 THE PRINTER IS SO FUNNY 😂😂😂😂
I can see how he got nervous when Brett came over. It's really sweet to see. Well done Eddy!
Brett giving uni teacher vibes while you play in your lesson
Love these types of videos! Really helps me when it comes to practicing!
Great playing, Eddy! Even though I'm a clarinet player, I admire your skill and hard work. Though in my school band, we mostly play Wind Band pieces, I've gotten into classical because of you two & Your Lie in April. Wen I hear Introduction and Rondo Capprissico, I can't help but think of Kaori and Kousei playing together. Thank you, Brett and Eddy, for making music fun!
eddy being amazed by his own skills will never not make me laugh
Thank you for the new video! I miss twoset uploads so much🥺
So this is what you’ve been up to . . . ! Congratulations on refining your already substantial skills and thank you for sharing the process with us. 🙂
Isn't learning this technique from Brett in the first place will avoid a lot of frustration along the way? 😱 I'm impressed by your determination, Eddy. I can't last a day, let alone a week of learning new things on my own like you do. 🥴 So, congrats on that! 😁👍
Your videos in duo relationship are a rich treat of a professional level of fun lesson and education. I am not a violinist or of any instrument skill...only a few years of piano. Even your followers comments reach such an incredible generosity. Thank you for your ongoing videos. Such a good pleasure of my time being a viewer. Best to you guys.
Cannot but envy you have each other, are able to show weakness, not be afraid to try and improve, give each other wholehearted support and honest and helpful feedback
It's a good feeling to improve on a technique that you've been lacking in for so long. I improved my vibrato a few years back by labbing hard on it for a few weeks.
Make more practice videos! Loved it. And so cute that Eddy was surprising Brett with it! 😄
That comment about his *behind* was WAYY too relatable. When you are practicing or performing with intensity, you can get so randomly tensed up anywhere except your hands and arms. 10/10 moment
I dont even play violin, but i love videos like this. It's like watching an artist draw something: you see it go from a rough sketch to a beautiful finished piece, along the way you get insight into the thought process at each stage, or little drops of wisdom. More please!
5:27 Eddy saying “holy moly” is
*a d o r a b l e*
I remember watching you guys way back and now I'm clinking vids 3mins after drop. What have I become 😂
lol same
Eddy: " I need to relax"
Me: "No offense but you look like the kind of person who hasn't relaxed a day in his life"
Great job Eddy! Sounds great! Inspirational practice, thanks for letting us watch your process!
What how this is perfect timing I was struggling at this part of the piece (intro to rondo)😭😭😭 I was practicing just 30 seconds ago until I came across this-
I really liked this! 40 hours a day is fun for a meme but I worry that it puts too much emphasis on time rather than quality of practice. I liked seeing a taster of what it actually looks like to closely practise a specific thing
Learning qualitative and efficient practice is really the biggest turning point for every musician. It makes such a huge difference.
I have a crush on Eddy.
Brett and Eddy, there’s a new anime that is specifically about violin performance and orchestra. It would be amazing if your reacted to that! It’s called Blue Orchestra!
The great thing about your videos is that you don't need to be a classical musician to enjoy them. I'm self taught piano and have found my new favorite show. Thanks!!!
I think "we don't have a Lamborghini, we just have upbow staccato" should become a saying.
Thanks eddy for the inspirational lesson on practicing something you thought it was too difficult to do but made up your mind to challenge yourself and practice till you get it. Love 2setviolin
It's feels like I'm watching Eddy's tutorials like before!
I love this vibe!!❤️
good job eddy 👍we are all so proud of you!
Amazing job! This has been great inspiration for my 8 yr old when she gets stuck/frustrated, thank you!
This is like training your 4th and 5th finger muscles to do trills and play the melody with your 1st on the piano version of La Campanella near the cadenza. Absolute torture, especially when the trills start to shift down right after 😭.
Nice job, Eddy! That was a great demonstration of how one can improve their technique (not just in music) through practice. I was impressed.
Try not to lower your wrist in upbowstacato. A higher wrist is needed. Otherwise you are locking your joints, and making a lot of unwanted pressure
We got to get 100k likes on this video for eddy to do flying upbow staccato in 1 week
I didn't mean to finish watching the video but I've already know what to say.
This video is proof that no matter how much experience you have there's always more learning to do.
You have Eddy, a man who's been playing violin for about 20 years (give or take) learning a technique that he hasn't done before.
This is too funny guys! I love it - Also, it really shows that it is supposed to be difficult no matter where you are in the process. We just have to keep on practicing and this fact doesn't change whether you have been playing for one day or are a true craftsman; like Eddy. You can always get better, even if you are a pro; like Eddy 🔥🔥😊 It is very inspiring. Interesting to see you practice over a longer preiod. I would like to see more of these videos where you are treating practical everyday stuff, such as practice, as a content opportunity.
I REALLY liked this video. Even with slow, careful honed practice, there are times a player can feel immobile in their progress. We all have our technique Achilles heels. To see Eddy's dedication ironing out a difficult problem area, to see that much of an improvement in only a week, is inspiring and invigorating. After laughing out loud at Brett's confused reaction, I loved his very classical music culture response: providing support and encouragement while giving advice for the next level up. I would love to see more videos like this, though I don't expect it, as I acknowledge it's time-consuming. This style of video is so attuned to the work it takes for musical improvement. And again, that result was impressive in that time window. I love seeing you boys kick butt, level up, and kick even more butt!
Eddy: perfect-pitch boy
Brett: perfect-staccato boy
They all have something that the other person is not 100% good at, but that's what makes them shine together as a team🥹 Congratz Eddy!! Now, go and do the same thing for your left-hand pizz lol jk~
He actually got pretty good at it after spending three months trying to learn that Paganini piece ZiYu performed. I think video called Learning Most Difficult Violin Piece or something like that.
Also learn double harmonics Eddy! (obv Im jk)
The most incomprehensible thing to me about this video is the fact that Eddy usually practises without sheet music. Where does he get that kind of confidence?
I've always wanted to know how to learn upbow staccato. Eddy "failing" is so much better than what my bow is doing.
I thought I was one of those who "don't have it", but then I found a way to produce it easily. Bow tilted forward slightly more than usual, for the right index finger switch from between 2nd and 3rd bone to fully 3rd bone for bow pressure, and then pretend to produce a fast tremolo with the right wrist (like orchestral, fast, unmeasured tremolo), start with that tremolo at the tip, and it's like you are in neutral, then a slight over-leaning of the hand toward the tip with pressure from the index, start bowing up with the arm as though you were just doing a long bow (the wrist is still just doing tremolo) and you engage the gear. If I coordinate pressure and bow speed correctly, this transforms the tremolo into up-bow staccato, with a properly relaxed wrist.
This is a really excellent video for people trying to improve their practice techniques.
i suffer from the same malady and I had to laugh every time Eddy screwed it up. It means so little to so many, but this stacatto-challenged person really took heart in how well it sounded after 7 days. BRAVO.
I respect and appreciate eddy's passion for practising and learning. He does not hide his mistakes or messed up moments. That is why i feel i can relate to how eddy felt and dont feel too depressed or hopeless.
@@josephineraeburn5809 "hopeles" is a good word for how the violin can be intimidating
