I’m genuinely surprised that they still have any violist friends left
I just always assume that they do have violist friends, but none of them will ever agree to come on camera 😂
"We couldn't get any violas to volunteer." Hmm I wonder why
Samee
That Jason guy probably left them because of all the viola jokes they make 😂
Maybe too shy
idk which was more relatable: Hyung just giving up on actually sight reading his part or how long it took everyone else to notice
He really can fake it 👍
Honestly, the faster cello parts are often uninterpretable so I sometimes have to just wing it.
Haha!
as my conductor often says, it's the effect that's important, the actual notes don't matter that much
On a more serious note, props to Hyung for sight reading three different clefs!
The amount of times the cellist messed up and was unnoticed by anyone but the editor
Editor san is the true musician here
The cello messed up a whole lot than even the editor realized lol
I think Editor-san is also a cellist.
Sorry, I mean Editor-sama.
She deserve that.
The editor herself is a cellist 😂 Good times
Do you mean violist? Editor didn't notice the cellist messing up as much as the violist.
Are we not going to talk abt how hyung just decided “f this” and just watched the others gleefully waiting for them to notice? 😂😂 he’s such a mood lmao
proving that rhythm is the most important thing to keeping a small ensemble together--as long as he was playing sixteenth notes, they didn't really notice
Timestamp: 7:20
lmaooooo frr
and 19:15
it is so cool how editor san distinguished who was wrong,,,,lingling level ears
they just waited until the end of the section to edit
O_O What if all this time, Editor San has been Ling Ling? Editing is what Ling Ling does between practicing 40 hours a day. :D
Perhaps, Editor-san had conductor training? The salty comments that show up sometimes seem like they would come from a conductor.
@@sofanofafalafel2890 yeah but considering the ones that got the ‘penalty’ from the video & the actual people who were supposed to get the penalty are slightly different, i think editor san has extra good listening skills 👀👍
In Bartok, he fail
for me it's never a question of who messed up because it's always me
Well hello, person I know, funny finding you here 😂
Don’t say that! Even if you’re not the best in the group, other people can mess up too!
You don't want to know how many times I messed up as concert master 😂 I was just lucky that it were smaller mistakes and I am actually good at covering them up. Probably no one behind me noticed most of them, but this doesn’t mean that I didn’t mess up
@Hamza Mzali stop using two set for views
When their sight-reading string quartet sounds better than your rehearsed-for-months string quartet.
YES
That's ASIANs for you...
That would indeed be depressing, because they were frankly pretty bad!
@@whpalmer4 ahh the arrogance 😂
@@whpalmer4 you next then
“I’m a violists, it’s fine”…the fact that she actually said it herself
Ikrrr good sport 😅😂
@mzali hamza 2dafuq is wrong with you just go away
@mzali hamza 2 it’s a video of a guy playing piano
For the ✨*MEME*✨
“Toyuta”
not them acting like buying bubble tea for everyone is a punishment-- 🤚
Lol so true
@Hamza Mzali you are quite good but can you please stop putting links everywhere
I think we should instigate an annual ‘bubble tea day’. Just because.
Bubble tea is pretty expensive. 4 cups of regular bubble tea with tapioca is 30 USD.
@@Weeping-Angel oh that makes sense why splitting korean barbecue and bubble tea was an even trade then
This is a huge feat. They managed to get a violist
Surprised they have violist friends
the violist is obviously a paid actor
They did say violists are shit.
And even when they got a violist, it's actually just a violinist who agreed to play viola for this video (they referred to it at the beginning of the video)
@@Casutama i don't know if that means she was necessarily a violinist
Hyung should appear in more videos in the future; he’s funny
He’s the straight man everyone can bounce their jokes off of. Like a stable cello in a quartet handling all the violin drama.
Yasssss
cellists are funny
And epic playing skills. Plus very wholesome
One character unlocked "ghost-san"
Underrated comment
We have to welcome ghost-san among us
It's like playing among us with friends again haha everyone's looking out suspiciously at each other
Yea I noticed that lmao
17:36 Aw especially with poor Eddy getting voted out again for no reason XD
Is it just me, or do you also think it’s the cello part that makes quartets sound divine.
It adds so much depth and richness to the quartet, I'd love to hear them perform one of these pieces
It's cause it's an octave lower and can add a baseline/lower harmony. And depending on the quality of the instrument it can provide a rich and warm sound.
Yeah, the cello is vital. So divine.
Yea canon in d for example
@@lordzamer2961 🤣🤣🤣
_“i came in early…. i’m a violist, that’s alright”_
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yay! Hahaha such a good sport and cute XD
agree...she is really a good sport!💚💚
Not even playing among us and eddy still gets voted out-
omg
He has a hard life!
poor eddy lol
Among us tbt XD
Mad props to Editor-San for pointing out the wrongs!
Sincerely,
The Non-Musician Gang
Edit: Brett and Eddy please don’t forget to give extra food and water (maybe prescription glasses too) to her in the basement. Thanks!
Editor San appreciation ❤️
Is editor san seriously a girl
@@magnifbs oof eddy had the audacity to lock a girl in his basement 😂😂
@@ckchang-wg2lw what else are you going to lock in your basement...?
@@kpp28 Children :D

18:22 Bartok - String Quartet No. 3 II. Allegro (Confusing Music)
thank you so much for this!! ❤️
Thank you!!
ty!💕
Thank you ☺️
thank you!
As a cellist I would definitely say that the random fake playing hard parts and chords is very accurate
Lmao
I agree because I am cellist too.
The feels of seeing them with their old friends again 🥲
Person: me
Cause of death: emotional breakdown of feels
Feels like my friends, hehe.
Sometimes I wonder why will twoset violin still have any violist friends.
By bribing them with bubble tea
LOL... With the amount of savagery metted out towards them right?
But some of them will understand though, even here in Nigeria, jokes are made about vioists and everyone laughs. Even them.
Right?
Can we appreciate the fact that editor san needs to listen to every part just to find the errors
Who else here want to have Twoset do the play the fan's pieces but this time is with the Quartet group??
YESSSSS
Please!!!
I'd love to.
Yeahhh that's a cool idea😃
You are a genius! that is a great idea. I hope they can do it! :D
On a Wednesday? Editor san really working 40 hours a day for us!
Fixed it, thank you
Editor scan 😭😭
editor scan ❤️
ayyyeee I thought the same!
on a Wednesday!?
Wait what's wrong with Wednesday?
@@IsaacW. they usually post in the weekends
Hyung is here again!
That Bruch string quartet at 9:00 melted my heart. I can't explain how much I enjoyed it. I sometimes forget how good of a musician they are. Total package indeed.
Ikr??? I kept going back to listen to it. Gotta go find a full recording now
@@exmousse after finding the recording of this piece, it seemed different especially on the first violin part, is there a recording really close to the way eddy played?
Divine part.💗
Enjoyed it so much
Yes, it was really warm and full
I’ve never felt prouder as a non-musician than when I could actually follow where they were in the music sheet
Wow! I'm a musician, so I'm genuinely surprised to hear of a non-musician being able able follow sheet music. How do you do it?
@@Checkmate1138 I am not able to read notes, but I can tell when a note changes, so I counted note values while following the part with the most simple melody (the cello, most of the times)
@@ailem2707 Ah, that's fascinating. Really! You honestly seem to be almost at the ability to read sheet music. I think all you would need to do is just learn the note names on the staff, and you would be set. You already understand pulse and beat, and it seems like you understand note values too, kind of?
But anyway, it shows you that anyone can read music, one just needs to learn it like any kind of new language or writing system.
@@Checkmate1138 self taught here. I just follow the most interesting one and follow note changes once i get a feel for the beat. Still very bad at it hah
@@Froggeh92 That's great. What do you mean by "interesting one"? You mean the musical lines with the notes?
wow…this is sightreading??? it sounds like me and my mates after months of practicing!
THE FERMATAS HAHAHAHHA the look of panicked musicians trying to telepathically communicate when to move to the next measure is PRICELESS😂😂
Great comment. Best to get some agreement with the quartet players about the length of the fermatas. First sight reading is bound to be chaotic.
"We couldn't get any violist to volunteer"
Hmmm i wonder why
That first mistake with Hyung was so relatable!!! As a cellist you're always responsible for the pulse and when it looks like you have an easy part (as it often does) your brain can just switch off whether you know the piece or not
I swear twoset keeps flexing their sight reading skills
yo this is how you know laughter is contageous - i have no idea if they're even playing wrong but when they give each other looks or laugh, i smile or laugh too 😂
A philosopher once said, “Even though I love violinists, I just don’t like violinists in general”. 😉
But seriously though, Hyung was trolling them hard here.🤣 Their friendship✨
Oh my god😂
What was the title of that video again? I forgot.
@@user-it1cp3ux5r i think its Everybody hates the violin
@@magnifbs thank you! ♥️
@@user-it1cp3ux5r no worries😄
The bruch quartet sounds just really beautiful
them: sight reading it and having a great harmony
me: fails to even sight read a bar
Me: literally fails on JUST the second bar
It seems like Angie had to keep slowing down for the mortals.
Everyone else: On time
Angie: ahead of everyone else
She's ahead of her time.
@@Idiomatick *badum tsssss*
The real winners are us. We get to listen to beautiful quartet music! Great content.
ok but can we take a second to appreciate how BEAUTIFUL the Bruch string quartet was (9:00)
I know, right?
Yes, we'll take 10.
As a singer is took me a whole ten minutes to realise that instrumentalists only get their own parts so they probably didn't actually have the score that was on the screen. Suddenly everything makes a lot more sense
Not necessarily all the time. Actually sheets similar to the one on the screen can be found and used.
@@a7xmaNga They CAN play off the scores, but then they'd have a ton more page turns, and it's a lot harder to read. Typically, everyone just has their own part.
This is evidenced when Eddy messes up when the violist doesn't come in. He says, "Someone is supposed to come in there." And then she says, "Me, but I don't come in until [measure] 9." This shows that neither knew exactly what the other was supposed to be playing.
@@magdolyn Yeah, you'll usually see the piano have the scores if they're a part of the arrangement, since there's usually a page turner for the piano. Also, the piano has the ability to overpower the instruments, so having the master score can help the pianist cue and regroup the ensemble.
@@mathmaniac3033 But that's a piano score, not for a string ensemble.
@@magdolyn That's fair; I'm a pianist, so my background in chamber music only stems from piano trios and piano quartets.
A lamentable guide on how to take down a string quartet with sightreading:
- Brett: “wtf there’s too many notes what is this?”
- Eddy: “wAiT wUt? tHeRe’S a kEy sIgNaTuRe?!?”
- Angie: a bar late a bar early a bar late. “So… who messed up?”
- Hyung: “chords? Naaahhh.”
All jokes aside they still sounded so beautiful even though they’re seeing the pieces for the first time omg
I swear the second time they did the Bruch andante my soul just went out my body.
All of them losing it at Hyung's faking in Bartók 9😭😭😭😭
Its been a while since they filmed with other mortal beings
_Mortal?_
7:23 when your cellist is so pro, you can’t even tell he’s faking it.
Missing Hyung in TSV vids, hope you’re doing well.
Bruh, Hyung is my my boy! He's like the quiet kid in class who is secretly funny but you don't find out until like the last two weeks of class when everyone is actually getting to know each other.
Meanwhile technical death metal drummers : See this black piece of paper? This is your part.
Welp time to grab the triggers
everyone's just trying to play it and hyung just seems so chill. we need more of hyung in the videos. he just adds a vibe.
Watching them play together gives me serotonin. I miss playing music with other people 😫
The cello guy can fake it so well lol
Eddy and Brett's thoughts when coming up with this video idea:
Oh yeah we can give editor san a bit of treat in the basement!
10:07 OMG, this violin-cello duet is so beautiful ❤️
It's a joy to see eddy having fun whilst playing in a quartett setting
Angie’s a real champ! This was so fun to watch! Thanks to y’all for making me smile!
Sincerely,
A sad Music Uni student
Woah its so nice to see them just vibing while playing with others. It would be nice to see more collabs like this!
can we appreciate how good their sight reading is for a second? like bro my brain doesnt work that fast
a lot of practice
Twoset string quartet sight reading: plays really good
My string quartet the day before show day: *sacrilegious squeaky noises*
They play pretty good for people who manage a bubble tea channel. 👀
I just love the setting with the sunlight shining in through the window on the wall behind brett/eddy and the glistening shadow of trees, how comfy it is to practice string quartet here
I was literally just binge watching old twoset videos before this :O
SANE
OR SAME
YEAAHH SAME
same!
And now I'm off to binge watch! Lol
Props to the cellist for perfectly changing clef on a sight read.
Hyung is back! Oh, I love him so much, representing cello gang! I want more videos with him and Twoset Violin together! ♥️
So okay... i think Editor-san is Ling Ling!
Spotting misses in a quartet is such a task!
Ahhh this makes me miss ensemble playing and orchestra in general so much :((
There's really nothing like the feeling of making music with other people and I'm so glad twoset is keeping it alive for those of us that can't do it anymore
I love it so much when Eddie and Brett play with and for each other or with friends. These episodes confirm their virtuosity and love and respect for the music.
This shows how it doesn't take very much at all for a whole piece to fall apart, particularly for just quartets. One wrong note, 1/8th too early/late, etc. This is why rehearsal is important.
But after they mess up and it sounds like baroque polyphony or something, then they re-do and everything sounds way different and smooth.
Love how Hyung is just sitting there as the one who is (almost) always able to keep in time and makes snarky remarks. Typical cellist. I do the same thing :)
These string quartet vids actually make me realise that viola sounds amazing. I found myself going back to try and hear the viola. Despite the jokes, violas sound really nice! Good job viola gang, keep playing on :D
-from a non-violist
Angie and Hyun really fit well in the craziness that is Two Set Violin.. 👏👏👏
I thoroughly enjoyed every second of this video. Cello-san was as cute as a button!
Shoutout to editor-san for using Borodin's second string quartet in the background ❤
I'm loving that the stake is bubble tea sponsorship
Hey guys just wanted to share some exciting news. I’m getting an award for violin from my school and I’m so happy 😁
Heey congrats!
congrats!
That's awesome!
ik im late but congrats, that's great!
I love Hyung 🥰 he’s like the gentle calming giant with Brett and Eddy✨
wish i was part of a string quartet so i could try this out…
I wish I was too, but no friends....
who are into classical music
@@AshleyImAnn same ;-;
@@AshleyImAnn same rip
It's fun stuff! I like it more than being in an orchestral setting. Sure you're responsible for every note in your part but it's also more...flexible? And your section is always together!
True haha. Jesus loves you btw
This was absolutely wonderful! Moments of pure musical beauty, utter chaos, laughter and joy, and even the mistakes - it was all great! Thank you everyone for doing this!
Couldn't agree more...
Sometimes I wonder if they know the meaning of "punishment"
I think the punishment part is to pay for everyone
It would be really helpful if Twoset would start leaving the names of the pieces they play on the description for easy access (perhaps with recommended recordings)
That would be very helpful!
I started listening to classical music while working from home because of Twoset!
By the way, a very kind Ling Ling level Twosetter commented the names of the pieces with the timestamps. The name is “Panda ad nap”, but I don’t know if that’s possible to search for the comment…
It's like a choir singing a piece they're not familiar with and just depending on the orchestra and just guess what melody comes next... or ist just me? :>
Eddy really can NOT sit still in his seat, can he!
Watch his Mendelssohn quartet video as first chair on his channel, there you can see prime examples of that in all its glory throughout: ruclips.net/video/z6JEPmO9wu0/видео.html

Petition to bring back the fan composition series!
Next time: "Hello guys, today we sightread with an orchestra..." D
This video was made 1 year ago today. Happy birthday
This video was made 2 years ago today. Happy birthday
An absolute gem of a video ... brilliant music, beautiful people and such a wonderful sound. I would pay to see these four in concert. As always Bretty & Eddy are their sweet and whimsical selves, with Angie adorably suppling the fantastic viola accompaniment and Hyung ... what a fantastic view to his carefree side! Truly another well done video! Thank you to the quartet members and Editor San for a lovely almost 21 minutes of classical goodness!
I just love how they wanted to continue to play even if they messed up, it's pure joy from music and friendship
i could just listen to yall all day, messups and everything!
This is probably my favorite video of all the videos they’ve made about sightreading. Love ur videos!
I love this quartet so much! I would love to see more videos with Angie and Hyung!
It’s funny how everytime Brett and Hyung are looking at each other 😂
for me this type of video is really the perfect balance between showcasing the beauty and quality of classical music on the one and, and just pure fun and enjoyable entertainment on the other - thank you two set 😊❤
I totally loved the Bruch!
I also love that all through this video you can tell by the look on Brett's face that someone has messed up somewhere! (so much for Mr. Chen's perfect pitch, lol)
Relative pitch is more important than perfect pitch for telling if someone's messed up (or playing out of tune)
As a singer, I'm so used to seeing all the voices. It took me a few clicks to realize that they are only seeing their own part. I guess it's nice to not have to turn pages, but it sure would be easier to find your place if you're off if you can see all the other parts.
i love the chamber music videos, they’re honestly my favorite bits of content that you guys have put out.
7:22 had me cracking up lol I couldn't even tell
replayed it until my stomach hurt X'D
