When Pablo Casals - then aged 93 - was asked why he continued to practice the cello three hours a day, he replied, "'I'm beginning to notice some improvement."

I went to school to study music a few years ago, and the environment ended up totally killing my passion for music. I discovered you guys last month and you've completely resparked my passion and got me to start playing again. Thank you both for what you do

I’ve been binge watching you guys for the past 3 days and i’m slowly rediscovering my love for classical music! Thank you thank you thank you! (i might even go back to playing the piano who knows) edit: it’s so nice talking with you guys in the replies, thanks for the welcoming messages😂. also i think i have a problem: i CANT stop watching them i have no idea what i’m going to do when there’re no more videos to watch😭. also Ray Chen is having a concert in the capital of my country, please pray for me i’m going to ask my mom if we can go!! edit 2: I’M GOING! Hope I don’t get lost because it’s a 4h journey😭 I’ll update my first concert experience in a week 😃

9:37 🤣🤣🤣 omg, love you editor-san!!! Hang in there!!! And Ray is so funny to roll with it as well!!! 😂😂😂

I love those lingling40hours episodes because it's like you're just chilling and telling us stories and giving updates on your lives and i'm just here chilling because i love listening to your stories so we're all chilling and it feels like home, so warm and familiar, so domestic, and then we're having fun talks in comment section and we're all just a one big respectful lovely community united by the love for music and you guys Thank you so much for all you do!!

4:18 Eddy's and Brett's confusion over what r/place is too hilarious to watch. Editor San's caption is so funny too

Brett looks a little jetlagged. You guys work so hard. Hope you get some good rest, Brett! Please take care of your health. ❤️

I started Piano lessons last week as a 21-year-old! Absolutely love it! 40 hour practise gang :)

"bold of you to assume i can leave the basement" THE WAY I SPIT MY WATER PLS WE LOVE EDITIOR SAN

Davie needs to know this

My aunt's late father was a strange individual. He actually said that practicing made him worse, he was a saxophone player, so other than warming up her never practiced before a performance. But for whatever reason, likely because he was a savant, a prodigy, he always sounded amazing. I never had the opportunity to hear him play live, but if the recordings were anything to go by he was truly incredible. But he was certainly an exception to the rule.

5:45 sounds like something the great figure skater Yuzuru Hanyu would say! True artists who love their craft will always strive to improve, so thank you Twoset for inspiring so many young musicians around the world

You guys should do more collabs with Steven He and the gang. It was so much fun to watch.

I never made piano my profession, but one of my simple joys as an old millennial is practicing piano in private and recognizing that my technique can still improve more. That there's still a chance for growth at any age.

Brett: you can only slap the bass not people. Bass: :'(

Sadly I cannot practice because it's very difficult to play a wind instrument when you have covid, but I still have twoset to fill the time with Actually though your guys' videos have been making me feel a lot better mentally, thank you!

4:37 Eddy thought Brett was copying him again 😂

As a bassist, I laughed a lot at the Will Smith slapping the bass meme. I also want to thank you so much for convincing me that orchestra was a better path. I recently got moved up to the highest orchestra in my school! I’ve only been playing double bass for a year, but this group is a high-school level orchestra. You have always made me laugh and smile, so thank you very much, Brett and Eddy! 🤍

5:44 Listening to TS' recent recordings and old ones, they are unquestionably improving by the day. Truly heartening to see these two live by their values while inspiring others to do the same.

Brett with the timpani is really cute tho. He looks so excited because he knows it's gonna be much easier than the cello XD

"Who ate your cake?" -Eddy Chen 2022

"you're not copying me or anything today?" "no" *poses*

Why did you appear on my recommendations only after i lost my passion for the piano and dropped it? You motivated me to want to start again but now everyone in the house will look at me with that expression making it really uncomfortable to play. Anyways keep up the work, you really help out musicians and people with dreams

Making something Claire de Lune related, but then making a cake instead of an E-Claire seems like a missed opportunity.

*gasps* ''ARE YOU EDITOR SAN???'' man im dying xD

Yes another episode of lingling 40hrs! Our community of lingling truly is the most talented subreddit ever! Another thing I wanted to add is that hope the copyright thing gets better (I saw your community post about it) hope it gets better

i mean i've always known you work hard but really guys, how much you are dedicated to practicing and what you do is impressive and inspiring and that sounds cheesy but i hope you take as many brakes as you need as well! if there's one thing we want more than your epic content, is you guys being happy and healthy!! the good energy radiates in this episode and you seem really happy so i am really happy about that

the amount of times they talked at the same time is so funny, their braincells resonate so much

9:36 got me laughing my ass off 😂 Also free editor san 👑

The pixel art was on April 1st on r/place where every single person can place ONE pixel every five minutes. It is really hard to keep any arts save since people will draw over it if they have a bigger community etc. Still proud TwoSet was there even tho not long 🫡

When my violin teacher's waiting for me to notice the sharp she do look like that. But when I miss it she bursts out laughing😂

im in a dark place rn and I've been binging you guys nonstop for a long time, and it's helping a bit. thanks for being here and making beautiful content

I can confirm. Every single minute of practice. Every single scale. Every single sheet music read and every soloist watched on youtube. You do learn. You do get better. Please don´t forget that (I still need to remind myself sometimes haha).

I like how Eddy exactly prove the perfect pitch initiation ceremony meme He hummed the notes then Brett turned to Eddy for confirmation if Sheldon had the note right XD

I always feel like musicians have wizard/witch vibe in them!! Maybe they really can do magic, because how else is possible to create music that sounds so magical!! (yeah I know the answer, prcticce!!) lol Also I remembered that I want to be a conductor when I was little just because the baton looks like a magic wand to me (it still does lol)

I love the twoset apparels cause its more than just their brand, its more on classical music which many people can buy

These guys inspired me to continue violin and now I’m playing in multiple orchestras, age 12… no idea where I would be without these guys

Honestly I had no idea the Oscars actually happened until the Will Smith slap

I can’t wait for the episode when eddy acts like Brett to get him back

The hell we've gone through trying to make Twoset logo into r/place2022 is somehow worth it when they say 'thank u so much' even though they didn't know what it is. sadly the logo didn't make it to the final picture after got destroyed horribly. but '2set' word is in it with blood sweat and tears of linglingwannabees redditors and we couldn't be more proud.

_"Are you editor san?"_ 😂

Hi! I’m always so inspired by your videos. I just made it into the first violin in the school orchestra, regardless of the fact that as a seventh grader, I’m one of the youngest members! Hope I can make the Twoset fandom proud!

My respect goes to editor-san who somehow managed to never leave the basement 😂

TwoSet helped me alot because when I was younger I just wanted to give up thanks to them today I am a violinist and I really appreciate them for always being there and always making videos thank you TwoSet.

The play it slow and forget the notes is so true though. As a pianist you get so used to muscle memory at a certain tempo that slowing down clogs the gears and does not compute lol

Somehow I really like this Lingling episode. Thank you guys for being true to what you always say 'Practice' makes perfect indeed. You live what you said and that is what most inspiring for us. And we have the joy to join you on this journey. Looking at your vid 5+ year before hearing your playing vs what you play around 2+ years before and the 4M concert, the quality and the improvement is really prominent. Maybe you are not flawless, no notes were wrong but your playing, musicality definitely improved tremendously. Can't wait for the days you guys can play the way you want it to be played the most. Best for both Brett and Eddy.

i do an 8 minute plank every night and you guys’ videos are the only videos that can get me through it

It’s always nice at 2 am when I’m going to sleep and then a TwoSet video comes up on my recommended so I decide to sacrifice 15 more minutes of my precious sleep.

Just wanted to say that I really appreciate your videos. They always cheer me up, no matter how stressed I am about uni or life in general. Sending love from Berlin!

I love how Brett’s lofi still pops up every now and again

4:04 yeahhh! We're famous! Although they don't even know what this is lol. Still the fun event to attend!

Kinda sad there is no intro for LL40H anymore :(

Twoset helped me get through a rough time, thank you so much for what you have done just to make classical music relevant and modern.

In 1848, Schumann actually shirtfronted Liszt at a dinner in his honor after he insulted the recently late Mendelssohn. Their friendship never recovered after that. So I guess you could say that’s the Romantic equivalent to the Will Smith fiasco

Amazing. I hope everything will turn alright for you with the copyright things. Cheers!

Editor-san more famous than Ray Chen, it's confirmed now

Greatly enjoyed this LL40 episode! Especially the behind the scene stories 🥰🥰🥰

Omyghad they noticed us on r/place 😭 We worked so hard after getting bullied by other larger communities and bot users. I think I was stressed for 4 whole days. Good job guys!!!!

You guys never get old

Thanks for always putting a smile on my face 😁

r/lingling40hrs is truly the most talented subreddit ever

Imaging Ray being recognized as editor-san…. Feeling sorry for both of them 😂

if you can forget it slowly you can forget it quickly.

but what if ray is actually editor-san like he might be a world class violinist AND an genius editor?!? Twoset just admit it we know that ray is editor-san

Haha. Love Rays reaction to them asking if he is Editor-san. 😂

9:39 let's save editor-san! But, yeah, this story made me laugh so much 😂😂

Ahhh poor Bretty, he looks like the Duracell Bunny as it’s batteries are finally about to expire, after a particularly debauched night out on the town!

Yeap! Brett should practise his solo actually! 4mil incoming!!

Practice. Exactlyvwhat Eddy said. You get better and better. I started singing lessons when I was depressed from work eat sleep hamster wheel of nursing. I told myself I would try for a year, if I don't improve I quit. Been with my teacher 29 yrs and the nuances in my voice keep improving. It's crazy how Practice works!😎

"You're not copying me, are you, today?" haha omg

Bit of a bad day. Rewatching this, calm is restored. Thanks, guys.

This is the only channel I watch when I'm bored. Both Eddy and Brett are equally funny and amazing. Thank you!!🥰🥰

I like how editor san decided to dig through the whole r/place timelapse to find the right time and place where we actually had the whole twoset logo down

ahhh that's my comment!! :D r/place was a reddit event where people could place a pixel every 5 mins onto a canvas we coordinated in a discord and tried to get the twoset logo on the canvas but it was destroyed by bots unfortunately we eventually managed to ally with the my little pony community and incorporated "2set" into an image of a pony called octavia who's depicted playing a cello (double bass?) and it made it onto the final canvas :D

I loved all the collabs! Thank you for introducing us to them. 3.61M!!!! Wooohoooo....livestream soon❤️

I started watching twoset when I was 13 (14 now,about to be 15),and discovered my love for classical music (my fav is Vivaldi Winter 1st mov.) and violin but somehow I still dont have a violin🙂.I have a guitar and been playing that for 1 and a half year but I like violin more.

@2:35 EDDY: One of the greatest thing that came out of this otherwise Oscar thing that nobody was paying attention to... BRETT: What was the Oscars again?

4:20 And we could put a text saying "2 set"!!! In collaboration with My Little Pony, it lasted until the final canvas!!! It was a really fun experience

Love this vid! Just love hearing you guys share your stories! It feels like we are just hanging out! Hope you also take care of yourselves despite the busy sched!! 💗

If Asian parent is Will Smith, Asian children with only A grade is Chris Rock. 🫠😔

It must feel amazing to meet ThreeSet Violin on the street. Would have died from happiness.

This video was made 1 year ago today. Happy birthday

I absolutely loved that collab video, could definitely see more

Drum Brett is the cutest!!!! Do have good rest and sound sleep Brett, flying 16 hrs all the way is really something.

LOL the Ray story is so funny. I mean thats why you guys do what you do. If it wasnt for you I wouldnt be cultured on the different artists like Ray, Hillary, Chloe and etc. Now I search for their music on the internet.

Love the new merch pratice!!!!!

Love this channel and community so much!

LOLed so hard at the last story 😂😂😂 Ray is editor-san!

Ahahah when Twoset were talking about meeting that fan, I had a feeling they wud thinking it was Editor-san if they didn't recognise him as Ray first. Such a funny story!!😂😂 Also, so happy for the fans who got to meet them! I'm sure it mustve been a cool experience for Brett and Eddy too.

Please, please do some kind of reaction to Gerry Phillips' "Fart of the Bumblebee"... Please!

First time commenting because it's been 1 year since I watch your videos ! I play piano not violon but it's still fun to watch your videos.

My parents tried the "no tv, no computer during the weekdays" except I had massive ADD and would just sit and do nothing. Pretty sure that creeped them out so much that they moved to allowing me that stuff again

I´m imagining like, classical /baroque composers having beef at the Oscars if they had it back in the day.... someone insults Mozart and he doesn´t slap the person. But the next day he drops a new symphony that´s absolutely atrocious yet brilliant and names it after the person

I got 2 20 second unskippable ads in a row before this video… worth it

I didn't expect a new episode so soon after yesterday's video, what a nice surprise! I hope you're ok after that jetlag. It was nice to know the stories behind the different pictures. :D

Eddy: It's cool to meet other youtubers But Eddy, you meet Brett every day

when you want to make a smart intelligent comment but have no idea what to say- uh hello two set! I really like your content and I am excited to see what this video has in store!!

I just wanted to thank you guys because you and my friend who watched you since day 1 inspired me to start playing violin again and I love playing the violin so tysm!! ❤️

I swear these videos are going to (successfully) shame me into starting to practice again when I have time. thanks for making me laugh!

The story with Ray at the end was really funny. I like the way they tell us stories like this. Have a good day everyone!
