U forgot the part when other musicians try to play louder/faster than the musician in the next practice room 🤣🤣
Dude so true!
Or don't play because the person in the next room is playing the same piece but 10000 times better... 😭😅🤣
😂
Hahaha so true
People do that in my college and it's annoying af.
u forgot about: listening to professional recordings of your pieces and crying
There’s no crying in music.
Dr. David Hamilton
@@arturoromero951 thanks
i agree!!
There's no crying, they're only screaming
Arturo Romero thankssss
My orchestra teacher used to tell us how she would take naps in her friend's bass case.
Oh my God🤣
My friend does that in his bass case 😂
One time I caught my beagle in my guitar case-
😂😂😂👏
aNnYeOnGhAsEyO bAnGtAn SyEoNyOnDaN iMnIdA how do you know the way I summon Jungkook??? Don’t forget the candles and the circle
Choir kids:
1. Play meme songs on the piano
2. Sing random songs that we aren't even performing
Ikr! Choir kids can be so annoying... especially when they sing Polosvian Dances ;)
Even I am choir kid. And see what did there. And completely true.😄
Don't forget we use the table as drums
Ah yes. That one kid who starts jabbering about Hamilton.
YES
You forgot that awkward moment when you’re crying in the practice room and someone walks in
Don't worry, I'm pretty sure this person has been the one crying in the room at least once, he/she'll understand...
Life can be tough, here is some love for you 🤗💕
Too real sis too real
They also forgot: Listening to the person in the room next to yours playing horribly out of tune with their practice room doors wide open whilst you are trying to drown out the awful sound they are making with the music you're practicing.
I’ve been on both sides of that lmaoo
that goes in tandem to the instructor absolutely demolishing your entire quartet and feeling the entire hall of practice rooms on the edge of tears
“Oh, this is a good piano?” * POUNDS THE KEYS *
*“NoT iN yOuR hAnDs, nO”*
AHAHA
Kaila Y *proceeds to shred the piano and show piano majors how much of a sacrilegious boi you are*
“...can I borrow your mute?”
Next: “Oh sorry, can I borrow your violin bow?....Oh, and also the violin. Good luck on your practice!”
Lmao 😂
Lmao 😂
Mia Jane mental practice always helps, then afterwards you can beat the borrower up
„can I borrow your room“
"Can I borrow your instrument, stand, sheet music, pen, and entire practice room?"
2:50 TwoSet: “If u can read this your a *VIOLIST*
me: *YOU’RE
While they are at it, they could change the u to you
I love their videos, even though they don’t alway use proper grammar, I mean, I sure don’t
Extra- Terrestrial Being because they are from Taiwan
I DONT HAVE A VIOLIN WHY AM I HERE I PLAY GUITAR AND PIANO WTH
@ツMax
They moved from Taiwan when they were very young, their first language is English...
gerfs well that’s just an engrish issue
You forgot - leave their stuff in the room and do something else for 3 hrs
I would also add: Listening to the person in the room next to yours playing horribly out of tune with their practice room doors wide open whilst you are trying to drown out the awful sound they are making with the music you're practicing.
how dare you attack me like this-
@@SilverStarFour also dont forget listening to the person playing next to you playing amazingly and thinking for 30 min about whether or not to just give up on life
h3av3nly.l0v sounds like a personal problem :)
Adam symborski that just means you are officially allowed to kick the persons items out and practice in that room
Simple.
Summary this video in short: musicians do everything except “practicing” in practice room
No John Cage 4'33'' mention?.
Unless if they're noobs like me. Those are the people who keep recording themselves practicing and trying to figure their troubles but failing.
And being very disapointing human beings in the way...
Nalikaplook Yeah, you got the point😏
Nalikaplook because they are uncultured pieces of shit
*U N A C C E P T A B L E.*
When you’re actually practicing and someone looks into the window of the door to spy on you
Ugh i hate that.
Jayci Minjarez ikr happens to me all the time
Yesterday I practiced on my piano.. With my windows open (cause of fresh air), however, bc my piano is near my window I noticed a woman with her dog "casually stopping and checking the dogs collar" while I played I giorni. I was kinda proud that my playing was good enough to listen to.. Sadly.. I started to play another piece and made a mistake.. And the woman "casually stood up and went away".. I just wanted to hide..
@@aloverspoetry low key disrespectful from her
@@libEluLLah a bit, yes xd
When he grabbed the mute for a second I thought it was the bridge and had a heart attack
Me too 😂😂
Same
I didn't even know violins had mutes!
i thought it was the fine tuners 💀
i thought it was the fine tuners 💀
i come here so early and yet I see Ling Ling comments...
'Cause people watch TwoSet vids 40 hours a day instead of practicing!
Who is ling ling🤔?
@@holycarrot6767 may be 1 month 🤔
I’m also confused about ling ling, isn’t ling ling the perfect musician that doesn’t exist?
Been watching for 2 months
3:03 We actually have a bed in one of the practice rooms at my school
OMG CAN I GO
OMG We used to have like big sofas in practice rooms and outside in the hallways but the school was like "NOPE, YOU DON'T!" And they just threw them away...
Such waste...
Rest In Peace music/Band practice room sofas
So... That's a
BEDROOM ? 😁
@@MissTwoSetEncyclopedia *Practice bedroom
My experiences in No 3 “Ask for everything”:
- borrowing pencil ✔️
- borrowing the stand ✔️
- the chair ✔️
- the mute from last week ✔️
- BORROWING MY VIOLIN BC THEY FORGOT THEIRS ✔️
You're allowed to say no you know. They won't get offended if you don't let them borrow your violin. After all, they probably also know how outrageous that sounds.
What piece is Eddy playing for this? I've been looking for it forever
🤣
@@mahatikuram870 Eddy was playing Beethoven's Spring Sonata
I died laughing when Eddy started playing 'Fur Elise' on the piano at 0:47
I was hoping he would only play the first two notes over and over again
can he actually play piano as a violinist
@@Max-yp1iw Yeah he can
He actually made a mistake, but he plays the violin so it was impressive that there was only one mistake
ツMax
Isn’t basic piano class required at music school?
You forgot one....
*"Can I borrow your rosin?"*
A simple question that string instrumentalists hate.
I did that on the day of my audition, and I put too much rosin on my bow and ended up sounding like trash
Ooh yeah that moment always gets on my nerves ;-;
Omg that's me 😂😂
I thought it said raisin🤣😂😂
I’ve finally declared it - twoset is the best CZcams channel of all time
Totally agreed.
Agreed.
This is the word said by ling ling themself.
It look you that long to declare it?
Yes
0:58 "I'll take that bow too. And your violin. Actually I'll take the whole room. Get out."
Jonna If you pause at 1:42 and read the small text at the bottom of the screen, it actually says 'Why not just take my violin too while you're at it?'
@@taylor_h796 lool saw that
i know someone already commented this, but seriously how did they look over “crying in the practice room”, it’s such a common occurrence
Mostly cuz there’s an Asian fetus more talented than you’ll ever be and they don’t wanna destroy people’s self esteem
No one comments about this but...Ive always appreciated Brett and Eddy's effortless acting ☺️ they're genuinely funny with minimal expressions xD
You are right, they do a really good job.
yeah, they are really good! their editors make it so much more hilarious as well ✨
Chinese people are natural actors, we have seen people acting before us all day long
merry me
tedlovejesus are they both Chinese?
What about when people hear what you're practicing, then start playing the exact same thing in their practice room!
Omg how annoying sometiiimes especially when you just start a new piece and they're like "let s show this newbie what s this piece really like"🤦♀️ I become so embarassed that I stop!
And half a step lower/higher at that
I'm that person!
when that happens i would just suddenly stop playing and instantly play another piece so i can outpace them
Been there! I haven’t been playing cello for very long and then I hear all these cellos shifting into 7th position in the practice rooms next door before I go on stage like I’m screwed-
Hi, I just wanted to say thanks. I've played the violin for about 24 years, but I had stopped playing for a long time from some unfortunate circumstances in my life that lead to a lot of trauma and a fear of performing.
After watching your videos I actually started practicing again, and I even started teaching my husband.
I had a long break too, I couldn't practice without thinking and reliving past bad memories so I understand how u feel. it's okay to take a break and I'm glad that you're feeling a little more motivated now. :)
That is wonderful!
@@carsonpeters7697 it’s on my ever increasing watchlist.
Are u still practicing? If so, keep up the work! ❤
So sorry to hear that :(
hopefully it’s now something you can enjoy again, even if you aren’t performing!
10: Messes around on the piano and doesn’t actually get anything done
11: Spills tea
12: Belt badly and you can tell that people can hear you through the windows
Feel free to add more, especially for vocalists
Eva P! 13: practises all the pieces you can already play just because they’re fun instead of the stuff you’re supposed to be practising
14. Judge the vocalists in the adjacent practice rooms.
Doing your annoying warm ups and worrying about instrumentalists judging you.
Eva P! sit and watch videos of people singing your song and just dying inside
Sing a piece with your friend who isn't supposed to be there about how annoying the choir teacher is and then she walks in
and by sing i mean half whine half screech badly
There's also when you try to play along with the person next door
but better than them 😂😂😂😂🤣
I work for IT at my college and one time I was manually installing Sibelius on the computers in the music building and I could hear someone practicing piano in a nearby practice room. I had to wait around for a bunch of downloads so I played on a piano in the computer lab to pass the time. The practicing pianist started doing a call-and-response with me and it was fun; I'd never experienced that before. I wondered, is this what it's like to be a music major?
Am I the only one who would love more bloopers?
Yes! I would love to see more bloopers. :D
No :)
2:31 Brett's phone case says "Practice" on it😂
Omg how can people pay attention to such small details? My sister does and I don't know how she does it
Lana Daw, I’m not sure... It just pops out to me. Maybe it’s because I’ve watched this video many times lol, I just analyze everything.😂
that was their old merch
Hey man,i am not north american,you know what is name of music or peace?
“I’m doing Alexander Technique”
DED
Cuz sleep is for the weak
1:42 lmao i was waiting for him to borrow his violin too 😂
jinhwan's heart-shaped mole same though
samee hahaha
I was waiting for him to borrow the bow 🤣
Same lol
I was waiting for him to borrow Eddy, too
10. Cry as you watch prodigies videos on youtube
Once i was playing rachmaninoff on the piano in a practice room and my friend in the next practice room started playing it as well,so i stop for a moment i listen where he is and start at the exact same time we were almost in unison through the whole piece lmao it was awesome! i went to the next room and we started laughing..also once i was hearing a violin player trying to practice a frank piece that i already played in chamber music so i started accompanying her from the next room she came to my room after and we played it together! good times.
That's the beauty of music.....
Sorry I
3:36
There’s hydrogen, and helium, lithium, berylli-
Sorry, I had a Chem test today and people where blasting this before the test😂😂
Lol 😂
went through all the comments to see if anybody else thought the same 😂😂
Oh shit. My friends in Sciences showed me that song once and I learned the periodic table in an afternoon instead of studying for History.
AsapScience
Yes, also does anyone know the pi song?
That pencil will never be seen again
Oof
You're not a true musician if you've never had to eat your lunch in the practice room while practicing
True musicians don't eat, they can't afford it...
LOL so true though!!! When I go to rehearsal every day, I can't attend without bringing some soup or bubble tea or something. I mean I'm there for 6 hours and hate having to play while hungry.
Yesterday was my first time using a practice room, and I honestly loved being in there. I feel more at home in the practice room than anywhere else on campus. Well....
Unless if you want to count the nice, quiet study rooms in the library.
As a brass player who playing instrument with my mouth, i never eat in practice room 😂😂 ps i playing French horn
I'm majoring on piano in a jazz based school.. sometimes i eat my dinner during band rehearsal (the teacher knows and he sometimes also eat during that time soooo 😅)
Ed: opens door because it sounds like no one is in there.
Brett: slowly turns into the awkward silence.
"What?"
BBH!!
I demand Eddy to post all of his selfies on this video
10. Cry. When you heard the next door played the same piece fascinatingly and you’re sucked
Then you think "It's alright, I'll be that good one day."
Then you see that guy come out from the room and you realize it's a 10-year-old kid.
@@SadButter that sucks
Okay first of all CAN WE APPRECIATE THAT SCENE OF BRETT DRINKING BBT
That face was priceless.
I need to know what is their favourite bubble tea flavour. Anyone?
Orsolya Kazatsay jasmine green milk tea with grass jelly and boba 🌚👌
@Sam Chiang
😅😅😅 How do you know that ? Have you been stalking them ? 😂
Miss Coussin Rouge i mean youre not a true asian if you dont like jasmine green milk tea with boba but i personally just like the grass jelly lmao
The guy on the floor saying “I’m doing Alexander technic” is the funniest thing i have ever heard
I'll go ahead and start saying that for the times I accidentally fall asleep during practice...
When your school has no eating in the practice room rule in front of the practice room
;and when the guy who made the rule is eating his lunch in practice room
He obviously isn’t a Ling Ling
does the aircon even work?
*doesnt work*
gUEsS i'LL diE tHeN
Deophix Holy shit I literally thought that was only my uni with the inconsistent aircon
2:18 When Brett's shoulder rest falls so often that you start to recognize the sound of it even without seing it fall...
bruh fr i was looking at the comments when that part of the video played and when i heard the clattering and then the laughing i was like 'oh Brett's shoulder rest probably fell'
Do u guys know what piece brett played i. Trying to find out!! It sounds good!!
Our practice rooms are clear door so everyone can see what you’re doing. 😂
Stalking everywhere!
I thought the "Ask for everything" segment would end with Brett asking for the violin.
Last time I was this early, Ling Ling hadn't even practiced yet
Impossible
Ling Ling is always practicing
ling ling came out of the womb practicing
oh fuck same
So, you never early.
can I just say, Eddy looks so damn fine with blazers...
You forgot freaking out because there is a concert in three days and you haven't even opened your music folder once or shown up at practice.
It’s been decades, I still have this dream.
@@salamane13 RIP
Nightmare* for me, but yea me too.
Re 3, I was so expecting him to come back in and "Um, one of the guys forgot his violin, so we need to borrow yours, that's fine, right?"
Please play the *Theremin* as a challenge:
- No frets
- Works on muscle memory
- Can create vibrato
- Sounds close to a violin
I am an aspiring classical thereminist. The instrument is capable of most things conventional string instruments are except a pluck, and it's monotonal. It's also significantly more difficult than a stringed instrument to play because the mechanics are so different and it's far more sensitive (tl;dr). Also sounds more operatic than a violin, for sure, plus a 5-7 octave range depending on the model.
It's a beautiful instrument -- sensitive in a way I struggle to hear in strings, and expressive in a way I cannot describe. I'd rather they do a novice vs expert video (with Grégoire Blanc for example, the man is impossibly virtuosic) than just a meme review of it. The instrument deserves far more justice than that imo.
@@VenerabIe now this needs to happen even more so
Arno du Toit At least your content idea is better than Twosets ideas :/
Jk tho
My band director once got himself locked in a practice room. We took many pictures....
Lmao, highlight of the year
I remember as a kid having to lock pick just to practice in one of the locked rooms during orchestra camp. Apparently my conductor was running late and she had the keys. Everybody else was there waiting outside and not knowing where they could go to practice. Lol!
@@SilverStarFour should I be concerned that you knew how to pick a lock as a kid? XD
@@SilverStarFour lol there was no way for us to lock pick but the doors would get super jammed so we would slide credit cards in the cracks or just bust them down.
@@ono_o_o I'm sure Ling Ling learned how to do it just for this very reason. :)
Stranger: Hi, yes can I borrow the grand piano?
Me: Does the mean I need to move?
Stranger: No, no don't worry, I'll move the piano.
Me: Okayyy.....
I'm watching this in a practice room right now
that door slam.... my mom would kungpao my chicken if I do that in my house
same. my mom would reach high pitch for that door slam...
Mapo my Tofu And SiChuan my Peper 😆
Well, good thing Eddy doesn't live with his mom any more, she would probably do the same ! 😅
Oops, watched the video again, and Brett is the one slamming the door, my bad.
Well, anyway they are at Eddy's, so... no mom to kung pao their chicken ! 😉
I usually say sorry if I slam the door. Most of the time, it's an accident.
1:27 *the sound of me practicing Violin*
That's an F ;)
Platinum XYZ Actually a short E, then A, then E again
That’s also every viola player
@@kingcp0878 There's no other notes, it's just F. I'm talking about the chair screeching.
Platinum XYZ yeah, the chair screeching. I hear what I typed
Edit: Oh I can hear the F. It kinda sounds like in between E and F
As a band kid, all of these are COMPLETELY ACCURATE! I have seen all of these at least three times a year lol 😂
I'm so thankful to be at a school where people are respectful, understanding and actually practice in the practice rooms.
*If you guys are already here, then you didn't practice.*
SillyDude164 I’m actually watching this while in a practice room, so...
Im typing this with my toes
Edit: in a smelly practice room even though im not even in uni yet
I just finished practising jokes on you
exposed :o
@@waynepatrick4212 ok
I would totally practice ... But I was busy making my Sim in Sims 4 practice
“You were probably watching CZcams videos on your phone”
Me:*watching this video in a practice room* “I feel personally attacked”
*when that weird nerdy kid stares at u thru the window of the door*
Oh no, I read the graffiti. Now, I am a violist.
@Jaya Pandey what’s wrong with being a violinist
@@tamsinsmith4293 violist
@Jaya Pandey sorry my mistake
i have a music exam tomorrow. watching twoset counts as studying right?? :D
RapSpuffy well kinda yes
I mean technically
and if ur always studying that should make u Ling Ling...
That depends if you've already studied/ practices 40 hours a day
all the best for your exam!!!
I died when Eddy said I’m practicing Alexander Technique and me falling asleep from doing it so many fing times
some bonus ones for singers:
1. trying to belt something you definitely cannot belt
2. getting halfway through a song and then crying
I must say, Brett and Eddy have become quite the actors. 😊
On a side note, I wonder how many times they open and close that door. 🤔 #prayfordoor
So, I wonder what's the penalty of teaching student illegally?
I think this is one of the "illegal" things that everyone is okay with. Just think about how big your expenses are when you study music.
Lol yeah I'm trying to figure this one out too myself. I used to teach violin lessons when I was a teen to my friends and to lots of kids who would ask for lessons. I always taught for free and for fun... but I guess a lot of them felt bad and started donating money and gift cards every few weeks or so. I made some nice cash for food and other things I really needed during the week. Never advertised or anything... people would just came up to me and ask for lessons after I had performed at different places. And of course I don't like to turn that down! I love teaching!!! ^^
I think it is illegally if you are accepting money while teaching a private student (of yours) in a music school (that has its own teachers) xD I figured this out because I once felt awkward teaching piano to some friends at my music school and because of that I didn't accept their money xD
Jaime Eduardo I was thinking it might be illegal to use practice space the school designates for students as an ‘office’ for your private business.
@@stephenbeck7222 Exactly!! that's what I wanted to say but sometimes English is too difficult for me 😅😂 thx
"I can see you through the window"
What Window.
The accuracy in this video. I feel attacked. *Still chooses to do everything on the list*
If you feel attacked ya just gotta work harder to be a Ling Ling
Just because Im a violinist doesn’t mean i cant practice piano:
_proceeds to play fur elise_
**cries in pianist**
**Cries In Flute and Percussion and Clarinet and Saxophone and Trumpet and Bass and Violin and Cello and Piano**
The next time Eddy plays the piano, can we get him to play Sonata Pathetique instead?
I don't know about you guys but I use the practice room as a hiding spot to escape lectures
wait am i the only one that actually practices in a practice room- i feel so lame rn-
Don’t forget, listening to professional recordings of your piece and crying over how bad you are😩😂
"If you can read this your a violist"
...but I play the sax...
Good news you are now a violist
@@claudiachin5860
Now I have to buy a viola and start practicing
Awww shite... now I have to buy a viola and start learning
Not anymore lol
"This practice room stinks"
Me:are they talking about me 😂😂
Literally evry practice room i enter to is stinky as hell 😂
2:01 That's me when TwoSetViolin posts a new video.
I'm just imagining the first scene being the one where Brett and Eddie met irl
Me and my classmates once had a pizza party in the practice room🤔
Shame, not even Ling Ling insurance can save you now
Sounds like that could cause a lot of *Treble*
But even our teacher is there😅
From the blooper of this video I've concluded that shoulder rests hate Brett😂😂. There's not ONE video where that thing doesn't gtfo lmaooo
“If you can read this, you’re a violist” .. that’s... true
I read it and I play the trombone
The first one just gave me flashbacks to when I was 10 and would always eat in the practice rooms because my instrument lesson was at 5 and orchestra was at 7
Brett and Eddy on modeling the IMSLP shirts 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Me, an intellectual, on their phone in a practice room watching this CZcams video...
So I am sitting in front of my musical keyboard and watching this video
0:52 fur Elise song that my favourite classic song
Oh God it's so realistic 😄 In every country the same problem.
Y’all forgot that you can ALWAYS hear a soprano voice cutting through the “soundproof” doors of the practice rooms no matter what you’re practicing
But we gotta let it rip on those top notes, otherwise our brains squirt out our ears! Lol
@@baldwinangel1218 oh I know the struggle lol fellow soprano here 😂
“can i borrow your rosin?”
3:26 is the closest representation of the look of disgust and sheer disappointment on my teacher's face when i first started playing
3:44 they look like legit kpop idols -if not even better- and im honestly so here for it
Same
Better than BTS, TXT, ENHYPHEN etc…
they uploaded this right as me and my friends were “practicing” in the practice room
The practice room is my favorite place to cry because no one can hear you and no one disturbs you
“I’m doing Alexander technique” HAS ME WEAKK
Y’all forgot number ten (and most important):
Watching TwoSet Violin videos in the practice room instead of actually practicing lol.
Btw luv the new merch so cool
Twoset: *upload a 3 mins video*
Me: Whoa what?
Ikr.. I thought they said they need the 10 mins marking 🤔💭 but again, there's a pretty nice advertisement at the end..
They actually have uploaded quite a few short vids on their channel before. You should check them out they’re pretty good
@@thetov1896 yes I love their skits❤️
Idk why their videos crack me up every single time. So relatable.
the 3 knocks at 0:56 are in time with eddy's playing
I used to go in there and be on my phone while looking at memes about practicing
The ending (2set merch ad) 😍 that's final level of editing
Lovin' the models 💕
Too bad the models aren't included...😞
2:23 ultimate foreshadowing
This was the funniest thing that I watched all week.
