    I'm Korean, and we call hilary "ice princess" because her interpretations are so noble, and so on point that it almost feels unreachable. It's the kind of the feeling you feel from elsa at frozen 1, without any means of insult but with absolute admirazation.
    + In Korea, grandma usually calls their grandaughter "my princess" so yeah. We rather think queen as a demanding person than princess.

    just to clarify so Hilary can stop worrying, in Korean culture, "Ice Princess" isn't used in a negative way. People very commonly use such titles for idols and other celebrity status people, usually performers to describe someone who is very poised and has a regal vibe, almost aristocratic air about them if you will. It's supposed to be a great compliment since they're saying that you exude charisma and project a mature, confident and serious image of yourself.

    16:30 Fun fact: The legend of the brown M&Ms started in the 1980s when rock band Van Halen would use it as a test to see if the promoter had actually read the contract. As they were touring with enormous, heavy lighting rigs that had to be set up safely and properly, they needed to ensure instructions were being followed down to the smallest detail, so they included a clause "M&M's (WARNING: ABSOLUTELY NO BROWN ONES)." If they arrived at the venue and saw brown M&M's in the bowl, it was cause for a thorough safety check.

    FYI, typically in Korean culture being called a princess is actually a compliment. For example, a similar pet name was also given to Kim Yuna, Korea’s pride in the Olympic Ice Skating.
    It’s a term of endearment used to depict someone who is chic, commands charisma and strength, and professionalism in their field. So, contextually I’d say, Hillary wouldn’t have to worry about what they’re saying about her heh. Cheers!

  • @gatesurfer
    @gatesurfer Před 2 lety +90

    Finally watched this whole thing. So the takeaways I get are:
    "Practice" for people like Hilary is different than "practice" for us mere mortals. We "practice" trying to get the notes right, trying to get the tempo under control, and getting1';1 the dynamics and phrasing more or less according to what the score says. With Hilary and other virtuosos, they get all that down in probably a day or two, or even sight-reading. From there, "practice" becomes more like "experimentation." How loud should you get when the score says "forte"? How soft when it says "piano"? And what are the degrees of "forte" you can play in comparison to the degree of "piano"? How do you begin a phrase? And end it?
    She says when she gets "goose bumps" during a performance, but it doesn't happen every time, and it's only when you've prepared for all those possibilities that you're going to get it and be able to maintain it. I've often sensed that virtuoso performers are essentially searching when they play, seaching for a sound that seems to fit the music at that particular point in time, and when they find it, they have the technique to maintain that sound and that emotion, until the music transitions to another section and they start the process all over again. Composers like Beethoven make that especially challenging, since his music changes from mood to mood so often. And that's is why going to a live performance is so much more satisfying than simply listening to a recording even if it's a favorite recording by a favorite artist. That spontaneity, and the ability of the musicians to get there, is what makes live music so exciting.
    I'm no virtuoso pianist, but I try to use that approach when I practice, and it's very interesting. I remember once playing the C Minor Bach Partita, opening movement, which opens with an overture, changes to a meditative invention-like section, then finished with a presto. I was playing at a friend's house where there was a lovely, well-regulated piano, and for some reason it just felt good under my hands. So when it came to the presto, I took off, playing much faster than I usually did, but because I'd practiced it a few times at that speed, I thought I could handle it. It wasn't perfect note-wise, but I got all the articulations and voicing that I wanted, much to my pleasure. And my friends definitely noticed.
    Another takeway? Please, please, please, don't talk about pooing on stage while you're eating! I could never get through that part to get to the interesting stuff.

  • @georgiananae7918
    @georgiananae7918 Před 4 lety +1382

They are incredible and I am definitely their fan!
    On a side note, why doesn't Hilary look like she's 40 (and a mother of two at that) at all? I mean, all I see is a very sweet 27-year-old incredibly talented musician. What is up with that?!

      Maybe she got lucky with her genes as pointed out before. A big part of how you age depends on your genes. The other important things is lifestyle and the environment around you. I don't know her personally so I can just assume. Sleeping well, drinking a lot of water, taking care of your skin, exercising helps a lot and I think she does it. But I think the main part is her passion for music. The position she is in right now and the way she plays shows she has immense passion for the violin and music. That in reduces stress in daily life as you love what you do which makes you look young. Also I think she had to stay indoors for long periods of time in her youth so that she can practice. Reduced exposure to the sun also helps.

How some describe Hillary Hahn as this beautiful goddess and degrade TwoSet because “these jokes” don’t “deserve to be next to Hillary Hahn” really just convicts and proves my rhetoric that this elitism surrounding classical music is disgusting.

The concept of an "ice queen/king" being associated with composure, confidence, poise, regality, etc. is an almost unequivocally positive and desirable trait in those cultures. Dignity and discipline are traditionally considered some of the most admirable attributes. That being said, more libertarian Western culture may interpret those same traits negatively as coldness or aloofness, and that is valid- but that is almost certainly not the case in Asia.

We made comics together from 7-10 and she was always correcting my human anatomy/angles. In the end I'd tell her what I want my character to do, and she'd draw it out because I'd mess up the pages with all my erasing and smudges >_>
      BUT I see people on art subreddits being like "1 year ago vs now!" and PRACTICE REALLY DOES WONDERS because they're able to draw so well within a year. And you know damn well those people are going to start having people ask them how they draw so well. "PRACTICE!!"

      Thats why 2set always says practice
      even tho the 40 hours is a joke the real meaning is that great musicians dont have talent, they just practice.

      This is a huge point and I’m glad you brought it up. This is why I love twoset. They really put in the work and they’re pulling back the curtains on what it takes to produce their art.
      Thank you for adding your perspective on making visual art.
      It frustrates me to think of people who don’t do art or make music who see something simple (or seemingly simple) and say “I could have done that” or “anyone could have made that”. Yeah, but you didn’t. That’s the difference.

      @@fenestrapain Exactly -- part of the point is that it's supposed to seem effortless, but the keyword is "seem". There is a TON of effort that goes into visual and performing arts that people don't see, and so people who don't create or perform have a distorted view of how much time and practice it really takes to be good, or even just competent.

    Hilary says "I just don't have that face", meaning, I assume, she thinks the emotion of the music doesn't show in her face. I beg to differ. Her expressions are subtle, but delightful. Part of the enjoyment of watching her is seeing the play of emotion aross her face, even as the ear is delighted by the sounds from her instrument.
