As a conductor, you don’t expect musicians to look at you constantly. That’s why you shouldn’t “overconduct”, meaning being full on the whole time. This way when something important comes that you NEED the musicians to be looking at, they will know it’s important and pay attention.

[@hello9484]

It's actually making the advantage of eddy having perfect pitch while sight-reading noticeable. when eddy was sight-reading, he was looking a bar ahead, at least in the easy ones, and with the time of a bar, he can actually build up and idea of what the next bar sounds like, then play by following the music inside his head. which is a great advantage. when brett was sight-reading, he was actually playing notes straight from what he sees, and its more like a reflex action where he trained himself to play the note when he sees it right away, which is how i personally sight-read music cuz i dont have perfect pitch.

[@jacklyncheung4993]

This is an interesting analysis and makes a lot of sense!

[@gabrielamayorga-kintanar6729]

Someone mentioned in this comment section that they are a psychologist and they want to experiment with this software. I think having musicians with perfect pitch and musicians without it, might result in some interesting variables.

[@ajchandra7735]

@@heyytheree Tell your brother that he doesn't practice enough Lol. There is no way we know for sure how perfect pitch affect sight-reading abilities, that's why it is a good proposal for research topic. I read your comment before that you are twelve, and assuming your brother is not a lot older or younger than you, and definitely not as old as Brett and Eddy, lots of things still can change throughout the years which will affect you (and your brother's) abilities. Experience factor is one thing for sure.

[@814melinda]

I think not necessarily only those with perfect pitch can read a bar ahead. Those with good relative pitch may be able to do it once they started the piece. But for me, same as you and Brett, I cannot read one bar ahead🤦🏻‍♂️ my teacher tried to train me this (read 1 bar ahead ) but to no avail.

[@57Raz]

I have to imagine the main advantage to sight reading is mostly to the person who has done more sight reading. Moreso than perfect pitch or playing skill, it has to do with the raw speed of processing the notation. Also, once extremely familiar with the scales in a key, it seems (from watching) that one can sort of fill in the middle notes based in familiarity with the fingerings? Maybe saving time to looking ahead for accidentals and volume and other details? It was fascinating to watch this. But also just impressive at how well they do pull it all together.

The concertmaster part remind me of one day that my eyesight got really bad and I didn't had my new glasses yet. So, I went to rehearsals with orchestra and I thought "well, I'm in the last seat, all alone, If I cant see, at least I can fake a little". Suddenly, the conductor told me "hey, since the concertmaster is not here and you're all alone, why don't you sit in the concertmaster's place for today?" At that moment I knew I f**ed up. Spoiler: The director ended roasting me bc I couldn't see anything and he wanted me to play aaaaaall by memory. The thing is, sir, I can't learn something by memory if I can't see it first, thank you.

DO MORE OF THESE Edit: I saw a comment about how they wanted to see a pianist’s eyes switching between clefs, and I think that’s a great idea. Y’all should bring on guests that play different instruments, like the opera singer y’all had that one time who showed awesome opera performances, the pianist from the Ling Ling challenge, and DEFINITELY have Hilary Hahn on. It’d be interesting to compare her sight reading, playing orchestral, and playing a memorized piece

[@perryschnabel]

[@ajchandra7735]

Lee Cha Are there pianist youtubers that will likely to make this kind of content though (the educational one like Twoset)? Tiffany Poon is probably the most likely one, but she doesn’t really watch Twoset. Other pianist youtubers are usually memers, cover artists, skit makers, or just faceless beings. I will be glad to know if there is Twoset equivalent for the piano.

[@icesilverwind]

Can Brett and Eddy do it? I know they've shown some basic level of piano playing. (If guests aren't possible)

[@ajchandra7735]

[@windowscrashed5358]

As a pianist, I look at the center of the keyboard, where I can see both hands, or focus totally at the left hand, occasionally looking at nowhere or closing the eyes. Only pay attention to the right hand when it's a tough passage. And as @Kaitlin Zylstra metionend, you sometimes don't realize you're the one playing (which causes some occasional accidents).

As a flutist I look straight through everyone/everything, I close my eyes, or I just stare into space

[@H.E.L.E.N.A.]

I mostly pay attention to the conductor while looking at the music for check points and notes i have for myself. You kinda get engrossed in the music while still being conscious of what you're doing and what's around you. You're conscious of the rhythm, dynamics and the other performers; you have to be slightly mentally ahead, but also expressing the emotions in the moment. It would be interesting to see what happens during an actual performance with different people.

[@windowscrashed5358]

@@Myself-anonymously I usually just stare at nowhere or close my eyes. Though rarely move my eyes along the music.

Loved this so much! As a harpist, there are so many times that I’m the only one. I am the section. I usually take my cue from where we are in the piece. I spent a lot of time listening, because who wants to count all those measures of rest? On the rare occasions that more than one harp is needed, it’s nice to have someone else back there with me. Loved seeing where your eyes tracked during sight reading and watching the conductor. I’d watch more of these.

oh wow 😲 this one's really interesting especially from someone who's not a musician like me. It's amazing to know how you function or how a musician functions when playing in the orchestra. In my head, you just play your instrument with no clear idea of how you really do it. Like how does one together with several different musical instruments work or sound harmoniously in sync when playing a piece. Now I have a little grasp of idea of how it really is. Like how you needed a concertmaster, how you followed or maybe translated what the conductor is doing, what the music sheet for, and how important it is to clearly hear the sound or of the instruments so you can all sound as one. It's so wonderful 😲 I'm in awe. Thank you for this video. I'm happy I learned something today. 🥰❤️❤️

[@Kekoapono]

I often sing along with professional recordings when I’m learning a choral piece. I’m glad to see you guys occasionally playing along with a professional recording. It validates that method of practicing! I’m also one of those singers who learn the music more effectively when I hear the entire context of the music. I could learn my part on its own, but it will never be as accurate as hearing how my part fits in with the rest of the music. Also, computer speakers not being loud enough is the primary reason I prefer to practice in a car. The car’s stereo can get loud enough for me to hear the music while I sing. Perhaps (if you are able) you ought to try practicing in the car, taking advantage of the high volumes that are possible.

So many takeaways from this one: 1. Props to editor-san for showing how musicians multitask through split screen display, it helps a lot. 2. If it becomes more accurate, eye-tracking device can sort of help with beginners and intermediate musicians training/practicing instruments as well - like for sight reading or how much to pay attention to the notes vs conductor. Just a random idea. 3. BUT the device tends to be less accurate when tracking people wearing glasses, since it refracts light. I had the same issue once playing with it. 4. Imagine the incredible focus X-men's Cyclops must have, having to look at one single target for a really prolonged period of time.

Let's just say that I am music note reading dyslexic.But overall I appreciated so much for you two for spreading the information and awareness for classics music . May the force of ling ling be with you. (Sorry for being cheesy)

It's interesting that you say this. Not sure when it started but I had come to associate the notes with my finger placement instead. I didn't even notice until I took music theory and realized I couldn't read at all 😂 took a while to properly read sheet music again. Maybe you're more a physical learner? Good time to pick up an instrument~ The music store is waiting for you!

@@BlissfulBluebell I do the same thing! My teacher will ask me what a note is and I’ll be like “uh, 2nd finger on G string?” It’s weird how you can see a note, know what it sounds like and recreate it perfectly, but not know what its name is

You guys got me to apply for violin classes, and guess what, I GOT IN!! :D I am so happy and my classes start next week :3

[@stratus42]

Looking forward to this, was always kind of curious.

As an eye doctor/musician I find this very interesting.

I'm sorry to say this, but I'm getting the hots watching Eddy flexing his professional skill as a violinist. It's time like this I will be reminded that they're not just KZbinrs, but true musicians as well. Great job, guys!

know the feeling when you have a smile in your face, a mix of joy and admiration? THROUGH 13:44 MINUTES

Eddy: cuz I'm really gonna play out of tune Me: spent the last 3 h trying and play anything in tune Eddy: still plays more in tune than me Me: why am I even trying to play in tune on a viola... xD

[@최민정-c1c]

This is what i was wondering~~~ when playing in orchestra~~~~ thanks Twoset, it is really interesting for me!!!!

If you practice 41 hours a day, you won't need your eyes anymore to see things.

[@corneliariasdita715]

I don't know before watching this that seeing the concert master and the principals is really very important for strings players and for another section maybe, not just the conductor (hehe I'm piano gang). This video is opening my eyes. And you give us a tip to read a bar ahead. I definitely will try it next time I practice sightreading. I can't wait to see more eyetracking stuff!! (psst will there be sophie oui oui?) Thanks for making this video

[@juliankrause7565]

One of the most interesting videos I've ever seen 10/10, I really enjoyed the Beethoven 5 Love you TwoSet ❤

[@RealGingerTea]

Bretts sight-reading, while still better than mine, gives me anxiety. I need to practice OMG

[@alliu6562]

I feel like the weird wiggling in the beginning each time is probably them checking the key signature 🤔 god knows I do that all the time

[@vanmyaf9119]

Just me or am I forced to watch till the end of the video cause I can’t abruptly stop listening to the music piece that is played at the end of each video... my musician soul must listen till a satisfying end...
