Classical Violinists Rank Music Movie Scenes 

The band is I Salonisti, and the band leader is played by Jonathan Evans-Jones (a violinist that does some acting too.) The quality of that film just amazes me. Actual musicians in a film! James Cameron really did his homework. I found a clip where I Salonisti members talk about the experience: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5nSQoro4zO8.html

I can imagine it might have felt quite a privilege to be able to honour the Titanic's musicians in that moment. And wouldn't have needed much 'acting' anyway!

Maybe this is the good way for how to be an actor, start with the musician first.😏😏😏😛😛😆😆

I'm sure if James Cameron had had the time and the inclination, he would have insisted on recording all of the parts himself and then using his hands as a double playing all the instruments.

Of you want someone to play on a movie a short schene you might as well get the real thing. You can always find a musician that ca act. But you sure can't find that easy an actor who can also play instruments.

That's our normal haircut as an Asian

Don't forget that necklace.. he looks like a rockstar with that😅

everyone liked that ✅

I still can recognise Eddy with his Glasses!

He wants to de-age to participate in menuhin competition

I heard an anecdote from a jazz musician who told me some scenes on Whiplash was quite true to his experience in music college. That's frightening.

@@blueepiphone Band is no joke and percussionists take just about everything too seriously, with trumpet players taking a close second lol

I was kinda bummed they put 'Whiplash' as a C, esp considering it's one of my fav modern films. Sure i heard some jazz musicians criticize it paints jazz conductors or schools in a negative assumption about them but I think they are forgetting that 1. it's still a dramatized film, and 2. the director actually did come from a jazz school so it's not like he's basing it off nothing.

Actually, I was going to say, our middle school orchestra conductor threw a stool out towards the empty auditorium from stage... However, I don't think that a teacher in the US could get away with smacking a student anytime recently.

I’m so sorry. Abusive music teachers re the worst because they can make you lose love for music and your instrument :( I haven’t had something like that happened but I had a teacher who was emotional and psychologically abusive, as well as dismissive and disrespectful of me as a person. I stopped going to his classes without a word to him. And I stopped playing for months.

Agreed. Throwing shit across the room isn't a jazz musician thing, it's an anger management thing.

someone through a triangle bester at me lmao

@@brassholio damn right

I’ve had sticks and mallets thrown at me.

*Dragonball Evolution has entered the chat*

*Death note has entered the chat*

*Attack on Titan has entered the chat*

the replies are all immaculate exceptions of course

Yeah, I loved Nodame!

Very true lol

bretts staying the same eddy is evolving with the haircut and the chain around his neck lol

He's a bad boy now

True man

I wonder whether both of them ever got haircuts from Kenneth Siu when they were in Australia...

Bruh! Eun Bin and Min Jae were simply amazing in DYLB. TwoSet didn't do justice by judging only the cringey parts. They should have judged the drama based on their playing. It was the first kdrama I watched and I was not disappointed!

I see a lot of comments about “do you like Brahms?” Hope they see it 🤗🤗

Yes, I totally agree. There are even behind the scenes videos in which the main actors, Park Eunbin and Kim Minjae, are seen rehearsing because the actors can actually play their respective instruments. Hope they TwoSet can maybe react to those. 🙏

Brett and Eddy wern’t disputing the actors’ musical talents, just the really, really poor scripts and storyline. The acting is pretty terrible as a result, at least the main actress - so much one dimensional moping and drawn-out looks into the distance. I hated her character - she was so wet with no redeeming features. It took me a lot of effort to get through the series. So I stand with Twoset in their ranking.

@@The-Wordsmith That is such an honest opinion! Outside of the fanaticism and affection that you may have for a series, you must admit your mistakes, and the script was poor and even some scenes are exaggerated, the hard work of the actors is understood, but the thing is to do a "job well done" or that it looks passable, knowing that you are interpreting musicians.

Y E S

singaporean here, i agree HAHAHAH

Indeed

The “ah boy” vibe is through the roof

Can relate HAHA

How is that song called? I tried looking for it multipple times, but never find it. I tried all kind of searches.

@@Doubleranged1 look for the music to "curb your enthusiasm". That's the show that used it.

@@Doubleranged1 It's called "Frolic" and was written decades ago by Luciano Michelini, an Italian pianist and composer. It was later popularized by an American TV show called "Curb Your Enthusiasm", starring the comedian Larry David. You can listen to the composer himself playing it in this video : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dRm1_WK6vfU.html

Why not? Enjoy music until the last moment??? Thumb up! Really Clam! 🤓🎻

"I am currently fending off a nest of cobras and a VERY angry man from Wisconsin"

Really hope you could react to her appearance.

There are a few big band movies from 50+ years ago. Most of them featured the actual bands plus some actors in major roles.

@@elissahunt :O Would you have a few good recommendations? I'm interested.

There is a Japanese movie, “Swing Girls” about a group of girls who learn to play in a big band. The girls actually learned their instruments and did a real tour to promote the movie.

@@Alceste_ Well, there's always "The Benny Goodman Story" and "The Glenn Miller Story." There are a number of other movies where the movie itself is kind of lame, but the music is good. "Orchestra Wives" has Glenn Miller and his band in it. "Sun Valley Serenade" is another.

Brassed off was a pretty cool movie about miners playing a brass orcherstra.

Goodness... They saved Strad first than the human lives 😭😭 Well... okay...

@@kris_pang well.. the lifeboat probably was already full that cannot save another human, but an instrument is light and small so... why not?

Dang

I would have thought that a Strad owner would be playing in prestigious concert halls, not play gigs on a boat at a dinner. Sounds sus.

@@hermenegildakociubinska6665 Playing in first class is prestigious though.

And, as far as I've been able to find, he has only ever appeared in two films.

that boy was a prodigy soloist, so ofc :)

Alas, it didn’t make up for a drippy character with absolutely no redeeeming features who never smiled or showed any personality.

They are judging as musicians, beyond the work of the actors, here you can see the ability to interpret. In addition, just as the actors in Do You Like Brahms worked hard, the other actors in the series that were graded "A" "B" and "S" also worked hard and PRACTICED too much.

Yesss

that was so fucking funny hahah

Well at least Kousei's actor (Kento) actually took piano lessons before the recordings and he played some of the pieces himself 😔 (not sure if all of them)

That why i never watch live action

To be honest, most live action movies are shit

I looked it up and it was Archbishop’s Palace, Hradcany Square, Prague! I didn’t know he movie was almost entirely filmed in real places in the Czech Republic and the rest was set also in Czechia. I did know Miloš Forman is Czech but the location surprised me. Thank you for pointing that out, I learned something new today. :) Hope you liked and enjoyed Prague.

They've actually made a review of the drama even before this review. They've mentioned about it in this video. Check that out.

@@veramaenoveno3470 ive already watched that lol they only watched 1 episode of it

Maybe add a black earring on one side of the ears make him even more gangsta. (what am I thinking o.O?....)

I’m proud of myself for knowing what ‘protection money’ is as a Viet that watches dubbed TVB 😭😂

Yup, true

+9

Gangster? XD 黑社会？ 阿隆？

I gig and I 100% was thinking that and then the dude SAID IT....

Sad truth, yes. Especially if you have cafe gig. I feel like I'm an MP3 player even though I'm playing live piano and our banner clearly said "live music"....

TRUE LOL (I know im two years late)

Yeah, they are making history in the Menuhun Competition

Thanks for that info mate.

Try watching the whole thing. It sucks. Main character has no redeeming features - she’s a total wet blanket! No disputes that any of them can play... just a hideous script and storyline. Anyone who can finish the series without losing their integrity or sanity deserves a medal and a biscuit.

@@The-Wordsmith yep pretty cliche storyline I guess

well it's your opinion.

Totally cracked me up

this comment took me out 💀 too real

Honestly, I'm in a bad mood today, and I just want to delete those dozens of comments about Eddy's new haircut. Yeah, OK, he looks nice. Can we move on now ? Maybe you could actually write something smart, something that has to do with the topic of the video ? If you're just there to swoon over these guys' looks, please go write some fanfictions and stop polluting this comment section. Yes, I'm crossed. I just spent 30 minutes writing a comment with timestamps and links to all the videos where Brett and Eddy made full reviews of these movie scenes. This comment has 1 like, and it's mine. Yes, I liked my own comment because I thought it deserved it. More than all these useless remarks about Eddy's hair that have hundreds of likes. I realize I sound extremely petty. I don't care. End of the rant.

@@MissTwoSetEncyclopedia you didn’t need to write the comment though

@@doge.studio No, you're right. I didn't need to do something helpful for TwoSet and their followers, and yet I did, because I just try to be a useful member of this community, and I will keep trying even if no one cares. Brett and Eddy didn't need to make this video either, and yet they did. But no one cares about what they're saying anyway, why do they even make the effort of trying to produce high-quality content ? They should just pose for 10 minutes while biting their lips and looking suggestively at the camera, since that's all the fangirls in this comment section care about anyway. It's times like this when I know I need a break from TwoSet. Not because of Brett and Eddy. Because of the brainless and superficial teenager part of their audience. It's a pity, because they probably represent 5% of their followers, and yet they're everywhere, to the point that there is no room anymore for people like me, who just genuinely love Brett and Eddy for who they are and what they're trying to share with us, not for what they look like.

@@MissTwoSetEncyclopedia Whoa.. are you ok? Do you need to talk? I'm really sorry you feel that way about the comments, but I'm not sure it's really about all those comments, they're probably just triggers to something deeper reacting within you. We all adore Brett and Eddy for a lot of different reasons and I'd like to believe there's a safe place for everyone in this community. That includes you, too, so I appreciate you sharing it under my comment. I personally just found it hilarious and endearing how everyone seems to be so mesmerized by Eddy's new look. That being said, let me look for your comment and give it a like! :)

@@mariaignatia1579 No, I'm not OK. I've been following TwoSet for years, but I already had to leave Twitter, Instagram and the subreddit because they were filled with Breddy shippers and frantic fangirls. This RU-vid comment section is the last place left for us, the "normal fans" (sorry, don't have a better expression). I try to be tolerant and nice to everybody, because I also think there is a place for everyone in this community. But I'm tired of these comments about Brett and Eddy's haircuts, outfits, glasses, and so on. If all you care about is how these guys look and can't help but tell how "hot" you think they are, just go elsewhere. There are people who are trying to enjoy the actual content TwoSet has been working on and would like to talk about it, but it's very hard to do so with such a comment section. (Oh, and don't bother looking for my comment. I couldn't care less about likes, it's not why I'm pissed.)

Luckily, the sentiment is still the same as before 😭 Especially he Chicago Med, Together, Our Shining Days, and ESPECIALLY High Strung! EDIT: okay, for Jay Chou one, it's an improvement lol

They've actually made a review of the drama even before this review. They've mentioned about it in this video. Check that out.

Could some of you maybe put this on Reddit please

Also Eddy's haircut looks sick

That would be an awesome idea for a TwoSet Violin!

I would definitely like to see that!

👻

put it on reddit

@@jojosk7899oh good ideaaaaaaa

@@jojosk7899 just posted

They have to grow the tea and the tapioca plants first.

I was thinking the same thing . They should have atleast taken brahms or song ah playing the final music

Imagine falling into the icy water to your death and hear a fuckin meme music playing

do you know the name of the song? i forgot the name lol

⁠@@lyz0711frolic, from curb your enthusiasm

@@Cooki_Cat thanks lol

@Hamza Mzali stop spamming. Its getting annoying. (I dont mean to offend anyone)

@@randomperson-en8kq report him like i have done

Piano is percussion based though ?

Kinda sad then, that Salieri got thrown under the bus for the sake of a movie. Thanks, Hollywood!

@@adaliaalvarez7269 yeah and in addition, i think i am right on this, that when Mozart was dying and writing the Requiem Salieri was in London conducting Mozart's symphonies, which might not sound like a big deal now but at the time Salieri was widely considered as one of the best of his time and Mozart was a literal no body. Which just goes to show that Salieri most likely are close friend with Mozart. It is rumored and perhaps confirmed that he wrote many positive reviews for Mozart's pieces and got him a few opera commissions.

The movie and play Amadeus revived interest in Salieri though.

@@aragonasten i will bet money that those people who were "interested" didn't bother to actually listen to his music because they were "mediocre." Even Twoset said in their video that Salieri was a lot worse than Mozart which just isn't true.

@@zewensenpai isn't true. How?. Its ur opinion that salieri is underrated and theirs that hes overrated .

I love their last play on the ship, just before the ship sink and split into two

Hani Kazuha You probably already know but the last piece is called ‚Nearer my god to thee‘ and it‘s so heartbreaking. One of my favorite pieces, it always gives me chills 🥺

1000000% iconic

And brett even did a reenactment on their tiktok too 😂

That saranghae is a mood. lol They should have reacted the scene of Sohyun Ko

@@datap2527 yeahhh

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christoph_Koncz According to the DVD commentary of the movie, Christoph actually played the music. Wonderful movie, one of my favorites. Also the soundtrack with Joshua Bell is fantastic.

Compared to every other movie or drama mentioned on TwoSet channel or just by itself, judging the skills “do you like Brahms?” is a masterpiece! They worked so hard and executed it soo well

@@paulka26 agreed! I really like it

They have already seen it and made a video about it

I thought the same! You have Drama? Add more Drama, play the Requiem.

I would if i knew how to

No one is really sure what was played as the ship went down. One witness recalled "Nearer My God to Thee," but she was more than an hour in a lifeboat by that time (Which of the three versions of the hymn is not stated). The radio operator stated the the song was "Songe d'Automne." ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-g73kOrhAai4.html

I seriously thought it was a girl who was laughing 😂

ikr 😭😭😭🥰

A trip down memory lane indeed 😊

Or Bernadette.

YES YES OMG

@@junasteen4747 yeah

Meme mom

It gets better: Zack Pinsent

They should have looked at the parts they missed in their past reviews. But then this is ranking so I guess they concentrate on scenes that stood out the most to them.

I agree completely.

I think so too. They should have at least commented on the violin playing of the lead character. I mean the situational aspects vary right ? They can only comment based on their own experience. The saranghae part might not make sense to them but I think the writer was trying to create some sort of tension and to show the repressed emotions of the characters in that moment.

I have commented on this too here! The drama is sooo well made! I really liked it. And those two scenes were from episode one so it’s more dramatic then the rest. There were soo many beautiful musical scenes in it!

I thought that too 😏
