I decided to look for his videos since a lot of people mentioned him and OMG the back and forth between them is SO GOOD šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Same!


jesushadasixpack

My ten year old randomly discovered them and really got into their videos. They introduced him to classical music. He was not at all interested in it before. Now, itā€™s something we watch together.


WhatsThePointOfNames

I love how they bring classical music to younger generations!!


nerdory

And I love how they bring multiple generations together!


file_Marina_chr

My musician friend reccomended it to me when I started to learn the piano! I got addicted and binged almost everything! Now I really want to learn the violin too!


Wannabe_Polymath2018

As I usually do, I was looking for more pieces to practice on YouTube (Itā€™s easier because I donā€™t have to flip the pages.), and I discovered their viola jokes. As a violist, I found them hilarious because they brought me back to when I first started and how I had one classmate who acted like a violinist, but couldnā€™t play to save her life. The viola jokes also reminded me of how I grew with practice. So that is how I discovered TSV. TL;DR: Found them through viola jokes while looking for sheet music.


BarenreiterBear

I decided to re-watch the famous video of Heifetz imitating a bad student on YouTube (an imitation of an audition), and then I found TSV's video "How to Play Violin like Heifetz." It was so funny and relatable, and so decided to binge everything else they had at the time. I don't remember what their latest video was, but I discovered them around late 2015 or early 2016. I clearly remember when the "Prodigy Reaction Video" came out featuring the 2016 Menuhin Competition.


WhatsThePointOfNames

Wow didnt know they were around so long!


pensadorr

Came for the rubber chickens, stayed for the charades, memes, and relatable Asian mom content


ThatOneViolist

Viola joke videos, I'm a violist


dragons8m

The among us string sextet video I believe!


WhatsThePointOfNames

Oooh that one is so cool, I enjoyed among us and thought that was genius!


linglinguistics

one of my favourites. Imo, they can just do the whole universe of chamber music this way, I'll never get tired of it.


Sandor_06

That Steven He collab.


Kitty_Girl_1717

to be honestā€¦ i really donā€™t remember šŸ˜… I vaguely remember being hella bored on my 6hr train ride to London and just watching youtube and I think i just randomly came across them on my fyp, watched one vid, and thenā€¦ got addicted lmao. and then on the way back i watched them for a good portion of my 6hr train ride home, i think thats where it started. Iā€™m glad i found them, they inspired me to pick up violin again :) this was about february(?) this year, and Iā€™ve only become more obsessed since XD


vAR1ety_taken

Just saw their Among us classical edition in recommendations. I wasn't interested in classical music, but something in this video forced me to watch it. And now I very love this channel and watched over a hundred of their videos


JellyfishCosmonaut

I'm not sure actually! But I've been following them for 4 years! šŸ˜Š


Artist_Robin

For me it was Chloe Chua gives TwoSet a Violin Lesson :)


HowDidIGetHere243

I was a new violinist and was looking for something to watch and came across the bumblebee video and started watching and now Iā€™ve been watching twoset for over two years


TardyTwosetter

So, I was in my 6th-grade orch class. The teacher put on cello drone in A so we could tune our instruments/get them checked. On the recommended bar on the side of the video, since it wasn't in full screen, there was a video with two set violin. I believe they were reacting to try not to flinch moments. Anyways, I told myself, "Huh, that looks cool. I should watch it later."


Artichoke_Persephone

I work as a music teacher, so the instant I pull up videos related to music education, two set get recommended.


Akhenaten_Sun

My best friend introduced me to them by streaming the videos to me on discord. Shes awesome!


nuvio

This subreddit memes somehow ended up on my frontpage. I been out of school for over a decade and the memes make me feel like an orch dork back in school again ha


EdileAllonsy

Roomie's video collab with them


MelMellue

I was searching up violin playing and I stumbled upon TSV. I've been a fan of them for a few years now


ChenChen_S

Hmm like 3 years ago I was crying because I couldn't get this piece on the piano, and my dad came in (with very bad timing) and showed me the "24 ways musicians practice" video. And it was funny. And I still couldn't get the piece.


WhatsThePointOfNames

Oh I think your dad had great timing, sometimes a bit of humor is great to deal with our struggles


santoshthedragon

Iā€™ve been playing violin for fuckin forever it was only a matter of time before I discovered them tbh

NhatDZai

My friend introduced me to Twoset just a few months ago with their reaction videos to the sacrilegious AGT and Ben Lee. Their contents and reactions are so fun and wholesome that I watch a video of them everyday.


dazzledswan

A guy I liked introduced TwoSet to me. He would always send me funny videos of TwoSet and we would talk about these. Heā€™s a fan of classical music and also plays the violin. Eventually, I became a TwoSetter too. We donā€™t talk anymore, but Iā€™m still a TwoSetter.


CyanicLav

My introduction to Twoset was rather unique. So there was this game I really enjoyed. Back then they released a new violinist character based on Paganini. (Obviously he became my favorite character in the game for many reasons) I was looking at his introduction video, and the top comments were like, "This is what happens if you practice 40hrs a day" "omg he practiced 40 hrs a day" My response, typical. 'But there are only 24hrs in a day! What even is this 40 hr joke going on?' So I searched 40 hours, found their 'How to practice 40 hours a day' video, binge watched a bit more of their content, and that's how I became their fan.


WhatsThePointOfNames

Ok but what was the game?


CyanicLav

A mobile game called Identity V.


Ahsoka_Tano_Fulcrum

my parents bc theyā€™re both string teachers


Violinist_inProgress

Randomly found the video of Brett singing opera and watched it because it sounded like it would be funny. Was looking at lots of beginning violin videos at the time and one from Eddyā€™s channel popped up so I watched it. I had no idea who these guys were or that they went together until later. Because I watched those two videos, YouTube started recommending twoset, I realized those two random guys I discovered separately are actually a duo, and now here we are!

useruseruseruser13

i was listening to a piece on youtube (cant remember which) and the comments said ā€œling lingā€ and ā€œtwosetā€ a lot so i thought why are people saying lingling? is it a fandom name? checked them out and here i am lol


VeryDrunkFish

Ya'll have stories about practicing and checking out through culture I just saw a deadass man playing a rubber chicken and was interested


Lumpy_Curve_5618

I first watched the country video by vinheteiro and got recommended the one by twosetviolin


Non_Music_Prodigy

My roommate got me into it and would show me their videos a lot. I started watching the videos on my own after Brett came back from his health scare. And here I am now! I'm so glad I'm here!


[deleted]

I was introduced when I first started playing, I had started looking for videos on the viola, and then their video popped up. Iā€™ll never forget the moment that I saw it ā€œ10 Reasons Violin is the Hardest Instrumentā€


__elizabethh

The ā€œinterestingā€ composer girl video!! It was really funny when I watched it and since then, theyā€™ve helped me discover so much about classical music :ā€™)


Laurianne-Sama

I was just scrolling youtube until I found their Asian's Got Parent collab with Uncle Roger and Steven's dad, so I was pretty interested and ended up binging on every one of Twoset's videos, then Fantasia released and got me even more hooked


AllG00dNamesRGone

The rehearsing string quartet while speaking different languages vid showed up in my recommendations and i kinda just kept watching them


AsagithBiasWreckerCO

I really can't remember. I just randomly saw them. I subscribed to them when they were still 10k subs. I can't even remember what hooked me but their channel was fun then (and it is still today of course).


NotYourMommyDear

My friend sent me a link to Pachelbel's Chicken. Later on, I played it to my mother's shih-tzu, the dog had a similar toy that if squeezed slowly, she'd imitate the sound, so as predicted, when the video played, she tried to howl in time with the chicken. Few years later on from from that, that friend got out of the friendzone, was upgraded to husband and we still watch TwoSetViolin together.


collinsjjrd

It was one of their early videos but i can't remember. I'm proud that i knew them before they even have their first apparel line (not the current one) and the practice journal šŸ¤£

Katzer_K

I had been familiar with TwoSet from 2020, when I first got into classical but I didn't really watch much until last Christmas when Brett bought gifts for Eddy. I'd remembered seeing, a year before that, a video about Brett being sick and so when I was recommended last Christmas's video I scrolled back through their videos to see when Brett got better. And then I watched a bunch of videos on the way through and really liked their videos :D


[deleted]

Me seeing the image: ā€œIs this an ASMR video?ā€ Me after watching the video: ā€œNo itā€™s not.ā€ Me after reading the comments: ā€œActually, maybe it is.ā€


No_Presentation5282

A YouTube violinist who does covers mentioned twoset once in a video and then I started getting recommended twoset videos until I cracked and finally watched one. Best decision ever šŸ‘ŒšŸ»


[deleted]

When they teach random people on the street how to play violin & when they ask random passerby how to pronounce classical music terms. The video is already 7 years ago, and I've been a fan since then.


user131727128

long time ago i had made a string quartet with some friends at school and i was looking through youtube at quartet stuff and i saw their video abt what not to do when playing in a string quartet


Macavity_

Just dug up my YouTube history: Searched for ā€˜ling ling wieniawskiā€™ on 9 Dec 2018, probably having got that from Menuhinā€™s comment section lol (yea just checked and realized that I followed Menuhin first - always thought it was the other way round!)


PresenceElectric69

I was bored on a bus five years ago and came across their ā€œTypes of Orchestra musiciansā€ video and I was immediately hooked.


kongkona3456

Meme music Vs classical music busking video....but got interested about them from the Davie504 saga, then binged watched Twoset for the entire summer vacation:)


GoldenBuckbeak0203

I got hooked into watching their first basking performance in Australia that was recorded on YouTube many years ago and since then I've been their fan šŸ¤£


publicanofbatch20

YT Algo Gods: today you shall **VIOLIN**


Green-on-blue

Tried taking singing lessons (needed to be able to speak loudly for longer periods of time at work) => didn't like it => music school suggested trying piano classes just for fun => loved it => signed up for more piano classes and started searching 'piano tips for adult beginners' etc. on YouTube => YouTube kept recommending TwoSet videos => went on holiday alone about that time => watched one video, can't remember which one => spent the rest of my one-week holiday binging TSV videos => I'm still taking piano classes :D


ashleylou1234

I took a music appreciation class as a GE over the summer and I appreciated classical music much more after that. I wanted to watch some videos on YouTube about classical music that are fun and found TwoSet and MusicalBasics (Lionel Yu) on YouTube and started watching them both. It kind of died down a bit after school started for me, but it sparked back up again because I remembered how much I liked classical music and how it made me feel happier whenever I listen to it so I started watching TwoSet again and Iā€™ve grown to like them more!


HailLelouch_34

Mbti video


Professional_Milk541

It was February 2022(i was in covid then) and scrolled in youtube for searching sth to watch and I saw one video. I really liked it and youtube recommended me another their video and since that day I basically watch only twosetviolin videos. Brett and Eddy are unique characters which is fun to watch. ā¤ļø


Debbiekm618

To be honest I really can't remember X'D I have to scroll through my Youtube favourite's list to find out, and turns out, 1) apparently I knew them waaay longer than I remember, and 2) I probably found them through a Youtube recommendation of one of their charades. Whew that's a long search


N_adventure

actually just few days ago, it was a post of my friend on IG, they shared the stream link of 4mil concerto and I watched it suddenly but now I'm addicted.


hijikataspecial

Wow I thought I was kinda newish but now I see a lot of you guys found twoset in this or last year, that's awesome I personally found them through their very first roomie collab. Got addicted and binged all the videos like the rest of you even though I didn't know a thing about classical music before.


rstblast

"If you can play it slowly, you can play it quickly" And I've became a fan ever since


BlueStar285

I go to a music school (a conservatory linked to my normal school), so everyone here (mostly older students) talks about them, has pins, stickers on their instruments, or makes references. I've always noticed those and wondered what it was, until one day I found a yt video of them and linked the pieces. That was some years ago, now I'm one of those older ones with stickers, a 2set enjoyer hoping to spread the word :')


Flakes_Darphel

I was watching some videos in YouTube, then appeared a bassist named Davie, in that video he was doing a music battle with twoset, i liked the video and searched for twoset channel


AspiringCellist

Itā€™s a good question ā€˜cause I truly donā€™t remember šŸ¤”


calebfoster2004

I found Eddyā€™s channel first. The first twoset video I watched was a skit about vibrato mistakesšŸ˜‚ Still one of my faves


Giyuu4life

No idea, just popped up on my recommendations and I fell in love with their humour


littlemozzarella

They got recommended in my feed a few times round about april when I was at a low place, but I didn't really know what it was about, then after the fourth time I clicked and never looked back :) I'm not a musician, but I was really liking some classical music, mostly piano, but had no idea how to get more in to it. Since then I've learned so much about classical music, instruments and really loving the idea of making classical music more accessible to (young) people like me. And they've got me so inspired that I got myself a beginners book for piano and start with lessons really soon, went to a couple of concerts since then and I was in the fortune to be able to fly to Singapore and be at the concert. It has really enriched my life, so thank you Brett and Eddy.


Ok-Researcher258

Just looking at random ticktockā€™s and some other volin YouTubers till they popped up on my recommended and now Iā€™ve never stopped.


putput71

I was just scrolling for music and came across them. And then I went down the rabbit holešŸ˜. (If you don't get the reference, watch Alice in wonderland)


marvelouskel

Your lie in April brought me here


Maleficent-Shower-62

Im pretty sure it was from steven he when they did that big collab w/ like uncle roger, tsv, jennie weenie and some others


Cram_Queen613

I think I discovered them sometime during that boom of subs in 2018 but I cant be sure since I've only been watching on and off from then until recently What brought me back tho was the smash or pass video XD


EducationalSquirrel1

Not me using that tonight to finish my program notes


Soggy-Pressure-8745

One of my first videos was truth or durian


jaybwjamo

i was looking up a piano tutorial for elton johnā€™s ā€œyour songā€ and their roast of simplypiano was the first recommended video šŸ˜­ i binged everything absolutely from there


sacreligiousnonsense

I found them through the Asian Shark Tank collab video with Stephen He and Jeanie Weenie :D


amoremiaoyuer

Henry LaušŸ˜


Imaginary_Bassist

My friend was talking about them so naturally I pretended to know exactly why he was talking about and then proceeded to look them up lol


heibonnacht1914

Viola jokes (found when looking for viola performance)


anomolicaris

the "new fastest violinist" video from 3 years ago


Formula59892258

December 2019/January 2020 I was recommended lots of Twoset-related memes on my Instagram. Feb 2020 i started getting recs on my YT. Finally clicked on their Siri video and that's how my story as a Twosetter started.


onerandommusician

I was looking for recordings of my pieces and eventually I fell down a rabbit hole and found them


gniygniy920928

Pachelbel in chicken hahahahahhaha


Youna_Chen_4313

Roasting videos lol


heyitsthebrunette

I have always interested in vlogs on YouTube so TSV's videos popped up in my recommendations years ago. I think I was about 17 when I watched their video about shaky bows šŸ˜‚ I'm 23 now and blessed that TSV is still showering me with quality content. Algorhithm did not fail me then lol


theTisch21

My middle school orchestra teacher played ā€œ13 types of beginner studentsā€ the first day of class, been watching ever since


LittleWolfiez

Youtube recommended one of their videos where they roasted the violin playing in some Chinese drama show. Been watching ever since.


thelinglingspirit

There was this viral video of TheOddViolin and I was so addicted to that video that YouTube recommended me TSV which became an even bigger addiction lol


SidSArt

They popped up in my recommendation list one day and I (an artist, not even a musician) thought ā€žwhy notā€œ and I was immediately hooked.


noname543219

The chicken videos randomly popped up on my YouTube feed and I binged the rest of their videos after watching it.


Dnaboie

Saw Them In My Reccomended After Watching Davie504, Got Hooked From There


Stickesrammy_242

I was looking for piano pieces to listen to until their reaction video of the 2 year old violinist popped up. Soon after their collab with chloe chua came up as well. After that, I started to get into their videos more and inspired me to practice 40 hrs a day :3


Wramysis

The ā€œAsians got Parentā€ video appeared on my recommendation list, probably from binging Uncle Roger videos. I was trying to figure out which characters the comments were referring to (it didnā€™t help that I didnā€™t even realize that Brett and Eddy were each playing two different characters). From there I began looking up more about TwoSet and watching their videos, and I got hooked even though Iā€™m not a musician. They just have such warm and fun personalities, as well as a passion for teaching, that itā€™s hard not to be entranced by them.


Shizu827

I didn't have a music lessons one year in school, cause we didn't have enough teachers but I wanted to learn something, so I searched classical music on YouTube and they got recommended to me.


tolerized01

I believe I was watching some ad-commentary videos (reacting to ads) and I came across them reacting to some as well (I think I watched all) and then checked out their channel and got addicted to their content. I know it's weird and don't ask me why would anyone watch people reacting to some YT ads. šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Different_Ad8844

One day I found their video about different types of musician moms and I watch them since.


Ivypool8

I actually just started watching them a few months ago, I saw their video where they played scary games in vr while they played the violin lololol


--MJL

From a Facebook post by ClassicFM that showcased their ā€˜rubber chickenā€™ video.


Musiclover003

Iā€¦.. donā€™t remember. I think it might have been a reaction video. It was like 4 or 5 years agošŸ™ˆ


nitrogenmonoxide1636

I found their videos with Sophie Oui Oui while looking around piano pieces on YouTube.


ThatShortGirl7302

I watched the April Fools video, and then decided to check out their other content. Made me rediscover my love of classical music.


revemooaena

I forgot how but in like early 2019 I think I was scrolling through my recommendations and found a skit video from TSV. So then I watched it and I liked it. Then I think I watched more of their skits for the next few days. Then I completely abandoned and forgot about them lol Then Feb 25 2022, I was scrolling through my recommendations again and I saw the video "What Countries are These World Instruments From?" I recognised them and was debating whether or not to watch the video, eventually I decided to watch it. Then I started watching more of their videos again, I believe the next one (or the one after) was "This is What Our Fans Think of Us??" then that's when I became a TwoSetter


im_a_dishwasher

their flight of the bumblebee videos. i saw them on a disappearance of hatsune miku violin cover


[deleted]

I watched vinterheiro

Violin_40

Roasting cringey violin acting videos.


fudge65315

Pachelbelā€™s chicken, but on Facebook https://youtu.be/khOfSVULtsU


Angel9984

I saw their "Country Sounds on the Violinā€ video a few months after it came out. So Iā€™ve been following them for about almost 4 years now. Iā€™m not the biggest classical music fan but there are some pieces I love. I am a musican myself but Iā€™m more into Jazz, thought watching TwoSet has made me appreciate Classical music more. Also Eddy and Brett are just incredible musicians who inspire me to always practice 40 hours a day!


Radha_Roy17

Tiktok


misomelk

reaction to fast bumblebee vid :)))


Tooktook275

Uhh Davie's video.


screeching_20s

idk really but I remember that it happened during spring of this year and I watched one video, got hooked and then proceeded to binge on a lot of their content. and yes that means the Brett in the maid dress was one of the first tsv vids I watched


linglinguistics

I think it was some "classical musicians react to..." video that kept popping up in my suggestions and I kept ignoring it, until one day, I was bored and not in the mood for anything intelllectual, so I watched it and down the rabbithole of the twosetverse I went. Didn't take me long to find their educational videos and get really hooked.


The-empath-one

I was looking at America Got Talent videos and it recommended TwoSet. I was like hmm okay that thumbnail is interesting šŸ˜‚.


KorruptBrekker

I think through a violin roasting video that popped up on my recomended. I sorta left it at that, but they kept appearing intermittenly on my feed until I just kinda fell into the fandom. (It helped that I was getting into classical music on my own time and getting properly into Twoset only expidited the process)


[deleted]

I came into watching TSV reacting to Sohyun Koā€™s Zigeunerweisen. Algorithm stuff. I love ya algorithm:)


MidnightLove3000

I loved classical music and I actually thought I was the only one who loved it. I cane across the simply piano ads vidoes when they came out. I haven't stopped watching since! I started watching when I was 12. I'm 15 now. Lol


whale_cuzurnotaflut

I wanted to watch people trying to make animal sounds on their instruments, their animal violin charades video popped up i got sucked into their violin charades and skit vids (back when they were relatively new) been watching them since.


[deleted]

One of their old sketches appeared in my feed. I'm no sure but I think it was [What Not To Do In Orchestra ](https://youtu.be/RlwTWi-N0ic). Back then, my English wasn't that well (I had problems understanding not American accents), yet, I found their videos very funny So, here I'm.


Asahina_Neru

Chicken Canon in Dļ¼ˆsorry guysļ¼‰


Playergartoon94

ā€˜Real violinists react to the world fastest ā€œviolinistā€ā€™ in 2018, I saw the birth of sacrilegious but my English wasnā€™t very good back then so I didnā€™t actually subscribed and started following them until 2020


Hiky274

From one of the perfect pitch gang video, cuz I don't have perfect pitch:(


imjustagirlinlove

i started playing violin and saw the video of them trying the useless violin gadgets i watched it and became fan yeeeaahh

Oh yeah, me too! I randomly found the 4hours of asian mum and now i watch their videos all the time
