There was this (very fine) principle clarinet player in the Rochester Orchestra & Chorale (Minnesota) who sat immediately in front of me (I was playing 3rd horn at the time) who HATED IT if anyone EVER tossed their pencil onto their music stand anywhere in his vicinity, but that was particularly true for me, with my stand only inches from the back of his head. I totally get it. The desk of the Manhasset stand acts like an amplifier, and even a tiny pencil creates a sudden & rather loud metallic noise when someone, after scratching some frantic notes in the music, hurriedly tosses their pencil down before their next entrance. Many years later I'm still rather careful about it. When Brett drops is pencil onto his stand (46:15... PLANG!) I immediately thought of that clarinet player. LOL

0:58 - Trauermarsch. In gemessenem Schritt. Streng. Wie ein Kondukt 13:24 - Stürmisch bewegt, mit größter Vehemenz 29:00 - Scherzo. Kräftig, nicht zu schnell 46:43 - Adagietto. Sehr langsam 57:16 - Rondo-Finale. Allegro - Allegro giocoso. Frisch

I can now fulfill my lifelong dream of roleplaying as a violinist! Thank you Twoset!

I’m still confused why I, a flutist sit in the violin section. But it was an amazing experience🧡

Maybe you were all teleported into some movie/show into an orchestra scene, which the movie makers don't have the resources to care sheet about where you're sitting 😆

This is actually one of my favorite symphonies and I hope I’ll get to play it some day. Thank you for giving me half the experience🙏🏼

Wow. Just wow. Thank you, Brett and Eddy. You brought me a lot of beauty today. I am sure I am not alone in saying thank you! Love. ❤

This is awesome, please do more of these!!! You two get to practice and we the viewers get to watch a longer video! It's a win win! Thanks for giving me something exciting to listen to on my drive home from work :) much love!

That's why I love your content. It's unpredictable 😅 Btw, I don't play on any instrument, but I'm glad I could just sit there and look at you playing
