Brett and Eddy are the best teachers in the world.

[@TheReal4th]

9 years? stop lying. I'd believe you if you said you learned 9 years ago, but you're saying you've been playing for that much time. I've been playing for 8 and a half years, and I did not really learn anything from Brett and Eddy in terms of classical theory. All I learned were the simple mechanics of the violin. I watch twoset purely for entertainment because I can relate as I am very fond of music theory in both jazz and classical theory. I do see beginners learning a lot from twoset. But a pianist who's been playing for 9 years? If you're not lying, then chances are is that there is something wrong with either your memory or perception of time.

TRUE STORY: I was moving across the US and stayed in Tennessee for a night at a motel. I was traveling with a pedal harp and had to bring it into my motel room for the night. Unfortunately, I was on the second story and there were no elevators ☹️ so I had to take it up an outdoor flight of stairs. I started slowly pulling it up with my harp dolly and some friendly dude nearby asked, "Hey, do you need help?" For the safety of the harp, I don't let people touch it unless I've trained them, but I will let people open doors and spot me in case of emergency. So this dude is spotting me and asks, "Is this a cello?" ... It's over 60 lbs and harp shaped, so this implied that he had never seen a harp or a cello before. "Haha, no. It's a harp." I thanked him for his help, had a good laugh and wished him a good night. The next morning, I had to move the harp down the same flight of stairs. A thoughtful woman asked if she could help, so I let her spot me. "You're pretty confident to be moving such a big instrument by yourself." *Pause* "I've never seen a cello before. Pretty cool!" 😂🤦‍♀️ Moral of the story, plenty of people don't even know what these instruments look like, so you can't expect them to know how they're played.

Thanks for exposing this scam. I noticed them popping up at every shopping center parking lot over the last 4 months (since March 2023 in my area Southern CA). I didn't know about this scam until now (June 18th), so I believed the first fake violinist I saw and gave the young teenagers (sister holding beggar sign and brother fakes playing violin) a $5 tip. I wasn't sure for the second time I saw a different fake violinist, I thought he might be family with the first beggars (different ages; looked related). I started getting a bit suspicious after about the 5th (+/-) one I saw just last week (June 12th). I said, this can't be possible to have this many high-level violinists that are destitute and begging for money. So, giving them a benefit of a doubt, I wondered if perhaps they might be the migrants from Venezuela, I learned about from a PBS documentary, regarding Venezuelan orchestral string players leaving their country to find work. I don't know, does anyone know where theses fake musicians are from originally? But then I started getting really suspicious as I noticed the lack of vibrato and inconsistent bowing with the backing track playing the SAME set of contemporary tunes: Aladdin's "A Whole New World," theme some from Titanic, the Cold Play song, Elton John's "Sacrifice," the "Hallelujah Song." etc. My suspicion prompted me to investigate the internet, and that's how I found your video.

Suddenly this old man is standing on the stage, introducing himself as Jerry and claiming that he had 19 Academy Award nominations and had won 12. He sets up his laptop and says that he recorded the piano backing track - I could clearly see it was a random youtube video. He starts playing Do You Want To Build A Snowman from Frozen and tells us that he wrote it. At this point I’m like “this guy seems a little overqualified...” He begins walking around the restaurant with his UNPLUGGED electric violin while the music is obviously coming from the stage speaker. As a violin student, I’m like “...is this guy actually faking this rn?” So I watch his fingerings and bowings - he’s slurring on separated notes, his fingers go up when the pitch goes down, all his string crossings are incorrect, etc. At this point I tell the rest of my family and we all get a laugh out of it.

Wasn't Katy Perry faking that "flute" on every concert she had? Like an intermission to make her fans laugh

[@yashbspianoandcompositions1042]

Yes she faked it ( By autotune). And she doesn't even know that she was playing a recorder than a 'flute.' That's why I dislike these musicians who want to play the instrument for the fans and not for themselves.

@@yashbspianoandcompositions1042 maybe her misnaming the recorder as "flute" was part of the joke.

@@yashbspianoandcompositions1042 and that wasn't autotune. She was faking over a pre-recorded flute (yes, flute) audio. Autotune is a music editing program that pich corrects ppl's voices.

When I first started playing the cello in 6th grade, I was heading to orchestra with my cello and case, and I had someone stop me and ask if my cello was a banjo.

“It’s not a flute. It’s a RECORDER!!!!” 😂

[@vonnikon]

Actually, that depends on your language. In most european languages, this is most definitely a flute. And even in english: "The recorder is a family of woodwind musical instruments in the group known as internal duct flutes"

[@alarson1799]

@@vonnikon Well, considering Katy Perry is American and we don't call them flutes here, they're completely justified in roasting her for calling it by the wrong name.

[@vonnikon]

@@alarson1799 would you roast her if she called a violin a "string instrument"? Flute is a category of instruments. The recorder is part of that category.

4:50 they even gave her a microphone.. lol they were thinking a mic would make her a more convincing violin player? I don't know what to say, I just feel bad for the poor real musicians in the orchestra

[@ankavoskuilen1725]

Actually I think the microphone was fake too.

[@montexic5201]

Someone else’s comment: "Un camino hacia el destino" was a very popular Mexican telenovela and the main character (the girl who was playing) was a violinist. That's how they had her "play" the violin during performance scenes in the show (I guess as a way to show how much she feels the music). I don't know if this was an actual live performance or if it was a BTS of a scene they were filming, but l'm pretty sure everyone knew it was fake as the actress isn't a real violinist herself.
