What about a carbon fiber violin. Also a spiritual experience then? On another note, I do think carbon fiber violins actually sound pretty good, better than all the ones in this video.
I believe the rust color was actually welding smut. They didn't bother or couldn't get into that area of the instrument to polish it out. The smut is magnesium and aluminum oxide that resulted from inadequate shielding gas during welding. It will be most prevalent in stop, starts, and corners. That was a tight area to weld in and either the technique or the welding equipment wasn't perfect for it. It won't hurt anything in this application. The weld could end up slightly more porous, but this isn't holding up a building or a trailer hitch so it will be fine. Sacrilegious welding.
@Things Things perfect pitch means knowing the sound of the note names. For ex, if I close my eyes and you play a note, and I get it right, I have perfect pitch. Or another ex, playing a random sound on something and I getting the note right, I would have perfect pitch
The first silver flute must have looked really sacrilegious to flutists. "Ah, is it silver? I don't know, it sounds too... silvery and cold. Wood sounds much more woody and warm".
Actually, historically this is true. Quantz in his treatise (c1770) says pretty much that. He criticises metal flute experiments as being too shrill. it wasn't until the 1950's that the british moved away from wooden flutes officially. Even adding the keys to make the flute omnitonic was resisted.
Ludwig van Beethoven Ludwig, I love your symphonies and chamber music and love what you have done with the violin concerto. Glad to see people still use the three-movement fast-slow-fast form I popularized.
i also think that way too.. ice violin- sounds like ice ,glass violin- sounds like glass, metal violin- sounds like metal, Plastic violin- sounds like plastic. lol..
The metalic violin sounds like the violin my old orchestra teacher made from scrap wood and old wire. He would use it to punish us when we forgot our instrument. When we would play it was horribly out of tune and basically made no noise.
The first one was really cool though and seem genuine enough. Although the spiritual thing was a but on the crazy end... but still not really sacrilegious, or at least not as much as the diamond violin/viola monster. The former is a legit a piece of finely crafted artwork. It is like a ice sculpture with the added benefit of being able to be played. The latter is just self indulgence via flaunting his wealth. As for the 3D printed violin, depending on the materiel and exact type of 3D printing, there are limitations to the overhang and protrusion of components if there aren't any supports. You are also constrained by the size of the build plate. So maybe the weird shape is due to these limitations. The glass looks pretty, the aluminum looks like it can be cheaper than wood. Regardless, all of these are still better than the diamond one.
What is more sacrilegious is commenting right away that you have nothing to do with your life, but comment about these fake violins. Maybe you are a bastard that didn't want correction about this.

"Ice violin sounds like ice" "Glass violin sounds like glass" "Plastic violin sounds plasticy" "Metallic violin sounds metallic" I'm beginning to see a pattern here.
Imagine making an ice violin and wanted to show it off to your friend but when you open your case you'd be surprised when you saw water inside your violin case with the tail peice, strings, 4 pegs, a bridge, and a chin rest
bro that's freaking hilarious. after a minute of thought: ALso nasty tho, like the bow, and the velvet of the inside of the case, and like the bridge would be soaked and it would prolly smell nasty too
@@nicoladc89 you're very right, but the reason we have to call it differently is because its different. Steam is also water but we don't say its melted steam either because it also can't go through that process- the molecular make up doesn't constitute a chemical change to make them totally new things- just a physical one- between the three phases but they are still different with different properties.

Ice formed in Nature will tune naturally to D, and resonates as well as many woods. It's like the glass armonica, it all depends on how it's made. There are scientists who are working on creating a super strong, super light composite that transmits sound, for space applications. Perhaps they can modify it to be resonant, and create an actual synthetic violin. It would be cheap and hard to damage, so perfect for learning. If you can fall on your violin and be the only thing damaged, then you won't have to learn to play a new instrument, and you'll heal.... eventually.
You're such a good critic Eddie. Glass violin: "it sounds too glassy." 3D printed violin: "it sounds too plasticky". Aluminum violin: (you guessed it!) "It sounds too metallic". Lol
wonder if these two could tell glassy, plasticy and metallic apart if they didnt know which one was playing. I am sure they would be able to tell something is off with the violin but would they use those adjectives?
Well, it does oxidize - but that seems to be almost white, according to the google image search I just did. So, if "rusting" is meant as "oxidizing" (which is the chemical process), yes, Aluminium does rust in its own way. :-)
@@Widestone001 Aluminium oxide is dense and impermeable to air. Aluminium is a poor metal and would rust much faster than iron if the oxide didn't prevent further oxidation so effectively. Aluminium is badly affected only by strong acids and strong bases that dissolve the oxide layer (so e.g. any hydroxide based lye or drain cleaner will quickly eat away the oxide and generate hydrogen and heat, and the reaction goes faster the hotter it gets so you end up with hot boiling drain cleaner and nasty fumes contaminating whatever hydrogen you might try to collect if you're not careful). If you can negate the protective effect of the oxide layer; aluminium is actually very good fuel for pyrotechnic purposes; that takes fine grinding into the right particle shape and powerful oxidizers like potassium perchlorate, but that's the standard thing you see in fireworks for a bright flash and a loud report (perchlorate and aluminium flash powder; nasty stuff, just a few grams will explode unconfined in air and is quite sensitive to things like static electricity). But aluminium metal at room temperature will very quickly form a passivating oxide layer a few nanometers thick, then nothing much more will happen until it is abraded away.
“The ice violin is made of frozen water, and we’re made of unfrozen water, so that opens a way for spiritual connection.” Yeah? Well, uh, uh, my violin is made of atoms, and so am I, so we have a spiritual connection too. BEAT THAT.
Sept 2021 The ice violin - I love the amazed look on their faces, the wonderful comments about frost bite, sending it to the North For once they didn't have too much to say! They made my day....from someone who's heading into the brisk fall season in Canada lol
"ice is made out of frozen water, and we r made out of melted water" *melted water* think about that for a second, *melted water* . Oh DoN't U MeAn MeLtEd IcE
No. "Ice" is sort of just a colloquial term. Water is water is water, whether it's solid, liquid, or gas. If you melt solid water, you get liquid water, which you can *can* call melted water.
In min 7:25 the 3D Printed Violin, reason for the fingerboard being short is because it's a BAROQUE style violin. In that period they had less violin hand positions, notes didn't go so high and bow strokes were longer. Later on the fingerboard became longer and more positions were created as well as other techinques.
Interesting fact: I was in an Instrument Museum in Germany the other day, and they displayed a violin built from matches. An inmate of a concentration camp had built it to cling onto hope in the form of music, and since he had no actual wood, matches had to suffice. Over the years he managed to finish and perfect it into a working violin. It looked pretty interesting. Edit: hello everyone, and thanks for the likes!! I just realised the original image link isn’t working anymore, so here’s a new one (from the actual website of the museum): www.museum-markneukirchen.de/streich/streiholz.htm Also, it turns out my memory had failed me. The inmate wasn’t in a concentration camp, but a war prisoner in Siberia. Oops.
From what I learned from this video: Ice sounds muffled. Glass sounds hard and clear. Plastic sounds plasticky. Aluminum sounds metalic. Wood sounds warm.
@@aljon5947 it's quite common in HiFi and professional audio production circles to call a sound that's heavy in the upper mid-range and lacking top end plasticy, as it's muffled but not really warm either. Just like plastic instruments for kids often sound like. It's usually connotated with a "cheap" sound too. The more you know *imaginary rainbow of useless knowledge*
The ice violin is hanging from the ceiling to avoid unnecessary contact with the body of who's playing it, so it won't melt as quickly. I saw that documentary before (:
The woods used in most violins (or generally any string instrument) Ebony for the fingerboard and tailpiece (any black wood, very hard, very expensive, no notable sound quality) Maple for the bridge and anything that provides structure (very hard and stable but doesn't provide a good sound) Spruce for the soundboards (has a great tone, but is very soft and very little structural strength)
Patty Gurdy has a video where she goes to see her new Hurry Gurdy being made and they briefly talk about wood choices (there's english subtitles) ruclips.net/video/lIhyiQOH8aE/видео.html
One thing clarinet players are told all the time due to our embouchure is that our sound needs to be smiling, not crying. The 3D printed violin is similar to the sound of an old reed or a "crying" sound.
Eddy & Brett: Made out of plastic - "It sounds plasticky" Made out of Aluminum - "It sounds metallic" Made of ice *"iT sOuNdS coLd"* Blind fold em and I wonder if they would hear a difference
Now realistically speaking, the medium through which the vibration of the strings travel through will make the sound significantly different. With the aluminum one especially, the sound was pretty clearly altered to me at least. But, I think they were also just fucking around a bit with that tho lol.
You definitely can. Especially the glass and aluminum one. Alu sounds very without depth. Like a heap plastic toy violin. And glass sounds like its fake. Tbh lol. I thought the 3D printed one sounded good but im not a violinist so im not an expert. But i do definitely hear the horrid quality in some of these
"the ice instrument is made from frozen water, we are made of melted water. And that physical connection, opens the door for a spiritual connection" So, if we put a watermelon and the ice violin together, we will potentially have beautiful, spiritual music, right?
Wood is chemically very similar to human flesh. If the "were both water" thing holds for the ice violin, it holds a million more times for a real violin.
Ice violin: "This sounds icy!" Glass violin: "This sounds sharp, like glass!" 3D Plastic printed violin: "This one sounds more plasticky..." Metal violin: "Sounds too metallic!" 600 IQ.
everyone else: *commenting the same gotdamn thing about ice being icey, glass sounding glassy, etc over and over again* you: *points out the Actual best part of the video*
@MorbidManMusic So a person singing a note can generate the energy needed, but a bow and string can't? Especially if the instruments are attached to a speaker system like the ice one seemed to be?
In the case of ice violin - it's solid, so it's 'resonance' frequency would depend on sound speed in ice, which is high, so resonant frequency would be very high too. In the case of glass violin resonance are defined mostly by violin body, and are the same that of usual violin. Since there's no high respnance peak (low quality factor) it is impossible for a human to break the violin with just bow and strings.
The lead violinist of a metal band needs a violin made out of lead, it'd be pretty heavy though, but that may be good because they are playing metal after all.
Yes, an ice sound box will work just like your wooden violin's sound box. All material resonates, just at different frequencies. You could carve a stone violin and it would function, albeit with a drastically different tone due to the resonant frequencies of the material used.
I thought the same as him, actually, thought it would be a solid piece of ice. Wasn't really expecting it to be able to make a sound so figured it would be more of a sculpture type thing
@@BlogWhatTheFruitcake what he meant was that he shouldn't have said hollow *inside*. Hollow means have empty space inside so it was redundant for him to say that
SO one of the things I can say about 3D printed instruments is that it would make it more cost effective to keep music appreciation in Public schools as It would be far cheaper to print a child's instrument and eventually give the instrument to them at the end of the learning period.
@@poisonmantis4191 Especially since young kids use smaller sized string instruments which tend to sound kinda crappy compared to the full sized instruments so why not save money and use 3D printed instruments. But perhaps, one that has the proper proportions unlike the example in the video.
It’s so cool how each violin sounds like the material it is made from. You could play those clips without the visual, and it would be pretty easy to say which was ice, glass, plastic, or metal.
Glass violin: "sounds like glass"

Why would aluminum form an iron thing

Aluminium does "rust" aka. oxidize. That's why it doesn't degrade like when steel rusts because the oxide layer protects it from oxidizing more
@Listen and believe, no I will not! oxidation occurs, as the name implies, when the metal reacts with oxygen.
It's probably residual polish that got stuck in areas they couldn't get it out of.

the wonderful comments about frost bite, sending it to the North For once they didn't have too much to say! They made my day....from someone who's heading into the brisk fall season in Canada lol
Brett is cute
No one:
That guy who made the ice instruments: MeLtEd WaTeR
The perfect pitch life - “that was a C by the way” 😂
Katharine Wilson-Jarvis i heard that C too x)
Pretty flat C though - it was almost closer to a B. So does that mean he was lucky or brilliant because he instantly thought C?
Confirmed, it’s a C.
A very flat C at that
*the ultimate weapon
When playing those ice instruments is it called coldplay
Best comment on the video👏👏👏

"ice is made out of frozen water, and we r made out of melted water"
*melted water* think about that for a second, *melted water* . Oh DoN't U MeAn MeLtEd IcE
Jesse Quarnstrom humidity
It wasn't melted tho, it was evaporated.
Isn't the partciple of melt "molten"?
No. "Ice" is sort of just a colloquial term. Water is water is water, whether it's solid, liquid, or gas. If you melt solid water, you get liquid water, which you can *can* call melted water.
Hahahahahaha
In min 7:25 the 3D Printed Violin, reason for the fingerboard being short is because it's a BAROQUE style violin. In that period they had less violin hand positions, notes didn't go so high and bow strokes were longer. Later on the fingerboard became longer and more positions were created as well as other techinques.

Eddy: it's like the forehead of the violin

That's not how that meme works
Interesting fact: I was in an Instrument Museum in Germany the other day, and they displayed a violin built from matches. An inmate of a concentration camp had built it to cling onto hope in the form of music, and since he had no actual wood, matches had to suffice. Over the years he managed to finish and perfect it into a working violin. It looked pretty interesting.
Edit: hello everyone, and thanks for the likes!! I just realised the original image link isn’t working anymore, so here’s a new one (from the actual website of the museum): www.museum-markneukirchen.de/streich/streiholz.htm
Also, it turns out my memory had failed me. The inmate wasn’t in a concentration camp, but a war prisoner in Siberia. Oops.
FH Purcell Wowie wow wow! That seems pretty amazing. Did y’all happen to take any photos?
Nat Nugget I did but I’ve gotten a new phone since so I don’t think I can find them anymore. Will try though
I’ve found a photo of the actual violin that someone took in the museum online though: images.app.goo.gl/KRBEHjg5pUGxPvtz7
I new we shouldn't have skipped that museum! Oh well next visit I suppose..
does it sound like Matches?
From what I learned from this video:
Ice sounds muffled.
Glass sounds hard and clear.
Plastic sounds plasticky.
Aluminum sounds metalic.
Wood sounds warm.
It also seems that glass sounds thinner, and wood makes the sound richer
I dont know how you define plastic -like sound.
@@aljon5947 it's quite common in HiFi and professional audio production circles to call a sound that's heavy in the upper mid-range and lacking top end plasticy, as it's muffled but not really warm either. Just like plastic instruments for kids often sound like. It's usually connotated with a "cheap" sound too. The more you know *imaginary rainbow of useless knowledge*
Ice sounds icy
Glass sounds glassy
Plastic sounds plasticky
Aluminum sounds aluminy
Wood sounds woody
I've seen a common pattern here:
Brett: notices something big and acts calm
Eddy: also notices and freaks out
Glass violin -> sounds like glass
3D printed violin -> sounds like plastic
Aluminum violin -> sounds metalic
:) 👌

Wood violin -> sounds... warm
@@ashwinraghuraman2665 If you look at the comment times, then not so not original.
but its true tho, lmao
It feels a bit unusual to see TwoSet watching videos of people playing the violin and not commenting on their bow hold.
There is too much sacrilegiousness for them to take it all in...
They were overloaded from the beginning
The ice violin is hanging from the ceiling to avoid unnecessary contact with the body of who's playing it, so it won't melt as quickly. I saw that documentary before (:
:)
(:
:)

The woods used in most violins (or generally any string instrument)
Ebony for the fingerboard and tailpiece (any black wood, very hard, very expensive, no notable sound quality)
Maple for the bridge and anything that provides structure (very hard and stable but doesn't provide a good sound)
Spruce for the soundboards (has a great tone, but is very soft and very little structural strength)
Patty Gurdy has a video where she goes to see her new Hurry Gurdy being made and they briefly talk about wood choices (there's english subtitles) ruclips.net/video/lIhyiQOH8aE/видео.html

One thing clarinet players are told all the time due to our embouchure is that our sound needs to be smiling, not crying. The 3D printed violin is similar to the sound of an old reed or a "crying" sound.
"it's made of frozen water and we're made of melted water"
That's almost "if you can play it slowly you can play it fastly" levels of thinking lmao 😂
I'd say that's worse
I would like to point out that there is no melted water
@@noahfolse9282 would've never guessed
Fastly
Worse. Melted water?!? Water is already liquid!! No melting needed.
I hope to see them reviewing cheap violins bought from amazon or something
tnurshamimi or wish
I'LL BUY THEM
@@thatgirlmaria5557 Omg that is a terrible idea in all the BEST sorts of ways.
Yeah!
Oooo yes
it would've been interesting to see them try to guess which material the violins were made of without knowing
Eddy & Brett:
Made out of plastic - "It sounds plasticky"
Made out of Aluminum - "It sounds metallic"
Made of ice *"iT sOuNdS coLd"*
Blind fold em and I wonder if they would hear a difference
there is a difference tho 👀
There was definitely a difference but they would give different descriptions for each if they couldn't see them.
I mean you can tell the non-wood violins sound worse without seeing them. They wouldn't be able to guess the material tho
Now realistically speaking, the medium through which the vibration of the strings travel through will make the sound significantly different. With the aluminum one especially, the sound was pretty clearly altered to me at least. But, I think they were also just fucking around a bit with that tho lol.
You definitely can. Especially the glass and aluminum one. Alu sounds very without depth. Like a heap plastic toy violin. And glass sounds like its fake. Tbh lol.
I thought the 3D printed one sounded good but im not a violinist so im not an expert. But i do definitely hear the horrid quality in some of these
One time this kid stepped on my clarinet and I screamed and he said “that was an F#”
He got a smacking
"the ice instrument is made from frozen water, we are made of melted water. And that physical connection, opens the door for a spiritual connection"
So, if we put a watermelon and the ice violin together, we will potentially have beautiful, spiritual music, right?
@Amber Rose Blaire , its just water. Simply just water
@Amber Rose Blaire just like frozen ice or evaporated steam
Lol
Nah, I think the violin will turn the watermelon into soul food.
The ice instrument is made from frozen water, we are made of melted ice
9:25
Aluminum oxide is clear, so that’s at least not the aluminum rusting.
Maybe there’s some steel too?
man: *taps block of ice, makes sound*
brett: that was cool

You have entered comedy Area
That was a C by the way
"We're made of melted water"
Just think about that for a second.
You can't melt water.
Wood is chemically very similar to human flesh. If the "were both water" thing holds for the ice violin, it holds a million more times for a real violin.
@@martaslabolepszy2169 It's called liquid water, and ice is technically solid water, steam is water as a gas.
Lol damn
Its like saying hot fire
"It'd be very cool to play though." That was an ice pun.

Ice violin: It sounds like ice
Glass violin: too sharp, sounds like glass
Metal violin: sounds metallic

You forgot the plastic violin!
yeehaw i'm a viola or some shit
They should have done a challenge where they have to identify what material the violin is made from by only hearing clips of it.
Ice violin: "This sounds icy!"
Glass violin: "This sounds sharp, like glass!"
3D Plastic printed violin: "This one sounds more plasticky..."
Metal violin: "Sounds too metallic!"

NO REALLY i wOnDeR wHy
The 3d printed is a great idea as it'll definitely assisted with cost for students..except it does have echoes that's not absorbed by wood base

It wasn't :)
It was an A

Ling Ling can make whatever sound he wants with whatever material of violin.
yh C DID YOU JUST ASSUME LING LINGS GENDER!?!??!??!??!?
Yeah ding ding can make sounds by breaking the violin after it scratched him
“HOW DOES THAT FEAL, HUH!
even with air.
Ling Ling would not commit the sacrilege of playing something other than a strad
Ling ling plays on nothing but strads.

you: *points out the Actual best part of the video*
also the "rub any wood" comment earlier in the video lol
I didn’t even notice that 😂😂😂
i guess you can say “gliss” over that
A Veeable pops I just commented the same thing before seeing your comment
If someone made a violin out of a hotdog, you’d say it sounds “hot doggy”. Very astute.
“The ice instruments are made of frozen water, and humans are made of melted water.”
*Ah yes, science*
Don't hit the resonance frequency of the ice or glass violins, or they'll shatter while you're playing them. . .
@MorbidManMusic So a person singing a note can generate the energy needed, but a bow and string can't? Especially if the instruments are attached to a speaker system like the ice one seemed to be?
In the case of ice violin - it's solid, so it's 'resonance' frequency would depend on sound speed in ice, which is high, so resonant frequency would be very high too.
In the case of glass violin resonance are defined mostly by violin body, and are the same that of usual violin. Since there's no high respnance peak (low quality factor) it is impossible for a human to break the violin with just bow and strings.

Brett said the glass violin sounds glassy
Hahaha I know I was thinking this!
I'm curious how violins sound when they are made from different kinds of wood!
7:00 the glass shattering sound when he coughed was a nice touch
3:16 Brett: I’m impressed it makes a sound.
*sound of ice violin gently sizzling from the subtle roast*
The idea of metal violins adds an entirely new meaning to being a lead violinist.
The lead violinist of a metal band needs a violin made out of lead, it'd be pretty heavy though, but that may be good because they are playing metal after all.
Yes, an ice sound box will work just like your wooden violin's sound box. All material resonates, just at different frequencies. You could carve a stone violin and it would function, albeit with a drastically different tone due to the resonant frequencies of the material used.
you will never know why this comment has so many likes...
i thought they wrapped a would violin in aluminum and thenflattened it out magically
I thought, it's just a violin made of an aluminium foil :"D
Why i have this kind of imagination tho? XD
Nah, it even sounds like the reverb from banging on the hull of a ship or something
haha I just commented the same thing above
no, it sounds too metallic
Aluminium is pronounced how it is spelled in British/Australian English
Aluminum is the USA English variant and is pronounced as it's spelled.
Also it doesn't rust in the same way steel does. It forms a thin gray layer of rust.
Also in US southwestest Carolina they pronounce thicken instead of chicken, but they actually are eating cows
I always thought "aluminum" was so weird like wtf
wasn't Aluminum a misprint in a news paper at some point (in the U.S.), but many people started using it?
In Dutch it's also aluminium
bling bling (ling ling's sacrilegious cousin who was disowned long ago) disapproves. his violin is more sacrilegious than all of these combined
If it works like that I wait blang blang the cousin of lang lang

1:26 "It is hollow inside".
Yeah, Brett.
As opposed to being hollow outside.
Crazy, I know.
I thought the same as him, actually, thought it would be a solid piece of ice. Wasn't really expecting it to be able to make a sound so figured it would be more of a sculpture type thing
@@BlogWhatTheFruitcake what he meant was that he shouldn't have said hollow *inside*.
Hollow means have empty space inside so it was redundant for him to say that
Александр Евстюгов better than being dead inside
Although Brett is pretty animated these I gotta say
Quite a small unnecessary nitpick, I would say.
@@KnzoVortex so is your comment, so we're quits now.
SO one of the things I can say about 3D printed instruments is that it would make it more cost effective to keep music appreciation in Public schools as It would be far cheaper to print a child's instrument and eventually give the instrument to them at the end of the learning period.
3d printing is a good way to get like. a super cheap sterter instrument, especially for kids. it's harder to break and you can just print a new one
Yea agreed, it is very snazzy and a good way to get things going :) for sure
i wish schools did this
Man just imagine 3d printed drums
@@poisonmantis4191 Especially since young kids use smaller sized string instruments which tend to sound kinda crappy compared to the full sized instruments so why not save money and use 3D printed instruments. But perhaps, one that has the proper proportions unlike the example in the video.
It’s so cool how each violin sounds like the material it is made from. You could play those clips without the visual, and it would be pretty easy to say which was ice, glass, plastic, or metal.
