Professional Violinists Guess the Age of Violin Prodigies (Pt. 2) 

That'd be awesome

They must do this in the next one 😂

I would guess they'd recognize their playing. They've already watched themselves playing as kids. Can't remember when but look at their old videos.

I think about that too hahaha

Probably roast themselves

The "old" "bald" and "greasy" are us non prodigies when (and if) we will get near the prodigies quality.

Greasy maybe but age isn’t required anymore

YES

I guess they would be able to guess that easily

that would be epic

@@booksandmusic2526 yeah, I'm pretty sure they could tell.

I agree with the other comments, they would definitely be able to guess that more easily. They were clearly pointing out things that needed a little work so I assume prof would barely get that feedback.

As he should tho 😌

Probably those are Eddy’s medals tho

@@lynnnalee9866 those are Brett’s. the medals appeared on old video

@@ajchandra7735 they both have medals, I assume Brett’s are in Brett’s house tho

I found nothing for me to support my self-esteem.

Pog through the pain :l

Haha

Life esteem 💀💀

The title of this video should be renamed: Don't Click On This Video If You Want To Preserve Your Self-Esteem.

yesss the charades are actually the videos that made me sub to them

bring back "guess the composer"

We have to bring back the Davie vs twoset

yes pls

Yes!!!

Out of curiosity: what if you’re that 8-year-old asian?

@@tomatotoons1045 There's another 8-year-old asian who can do it better.

@@tomatotoons1045 then there's a 5 year old Asian better than you

@@tomatotoons1045 Aunty Karen's Daughter will be better than you

@@tomatotoons1045 As a 14 year-old Asian, I can confirm that at 8 years old I was just sleeping the whole day so

Gotta love a part two

@@ILikeBirds haha

Yep definitely feel depressed now

What depression looks like to 14 yrs old:Billie Eilish What depression actually is:

a relapse basically

I remember nel cor* 😆 (I had misspelled the title of the piece, yet at least 8 people understood what I meant)

4 million subs... Let's Go!

Yeah pls eddy do it

Wasn’t he talking about Dvorak?

Duh, why don't you practice 40 hours?

Love that❤

agreed. she's so amazing

I got so excited when that recording came up, I immediatly yelled "It's María, it's her!" I've listened to that Paganini recording countles of times because of how good it is.

Which competition was that from?

Those fast notes remind me of flamenco guitar players. Must be something in their genes 😂

@@johanarifinroslan9678 Seems like Zhuhai International.

i have lost my self esteem a long time ago.

I also noticed 🤣

*Le GaSp*

Haha

Yep, I've wondered that too. The joy of playing gets strangled in time... So sad.

So true that’s sad.

@@wakingtheworld I think it's a disservice to child prodigies to assume they're all miserable and being forced to do something though. Most child prodigies aren't "forced" to do anything. You simply can't get to the level of world prodigy through forced discipline, because children don't work like that. They always burn out. All it takes is looking at the faces of kids who play their instruments to know how much they love it. And the fact is in any hobby, there's no gain without pain. Think of the US Olympic gymnasts or Russian figure skaters, most of whom get their first gold medal before they're 21. Theirs is a field where your career ends early, it takes children with a special kind of personality--they tend to be more monotonously driven than the average child (rather than most kids who have ADHD when it comes to hobbies, which is also healthy and normal), and also come from a socioeconomic class that allows their parents to support their endeavors. I also think children like this are more mentally resilient because they're so driven by passion that they're capable of withstanding hours of practice, and even more failures than most adults can even imagine. You simply can't get so far unless you really love what you're doing.

@@xtwinni Appreciate your long reply, Willow... Ok, one can't tar them all with the same brush but they do miss out on life. I recall the TwoSet 'Draw Our Lives' vid where, I believe, Eddy said that he was advised when he was a teenager to take some time out and experience life...

in order to play those notes, you have to practice 40 hours a day.

Germans are behind the times and still kept the H

That’s good to know. By the looks of it, I am 25% there - I can play G.

There are some vids of piano practicing going on. Several piano students / semi-pros.

You can check their Sibelius and Tchaikovsky Livestream

A concert pianist, Tiffany Poon, also does practice vids! Also inspires me to practice so lol

For me anyway the practicing process at the very beginning is a bit humiliating

Hilary Hahn does short practice videos on her instagram and explains what she's trying to accomplish and why she does what she does on each practise session ;)

Ling ling pro max.....!!!

@@rajagopal3432 more like ling ling lite

Those ricochets though. She looks and sounds so confident

LOL

Those baking skills... I have seen loads of 5 year-old kids cook and bake better than what those two boys had demonstrated

@@catherinetypist2371 All professionals have to start somewhere :)

Offensive af

@@juana6919 Take a joke? And they really are iNtErEsTiNg with the bbt channel with additional violin content :)

What was she playing?

@@iriqouispliskin Paganini concerto 1

Yeahh, her playing sounds so fiery and energetic

@@iriqouispliskin Paganini | Violin Concerto No. 1 | 2017 Zhuhai International Violin Comp

Good for you. I could never remember those things.

lol like a first aid kit

Thank you for this - I was looking for those videos 😁

Wow, super fast. Thanks!!

@@oxoelfoxo I made the playlist while watching

they reacted to her video with her twin sister

@@mikefung9145 Yea I remembered. That's how I found the Erlkönig video at all. I don't speak Japanese.

🤣

Not wrong tho

I believe this anyway, so was Roman Kim once Paganini?

To be honest, that's the only thing that makes any sense to me. I have no better explanation

Yes, I was going to comment on how their analyses of the techniques of each violinist, the skill level age expectation and size of violin would indicate their age... but they are jaw-droppingly & almost unbelievably talented...

I thought the same.

They also reacted to her playing Paganini’s Nel cor piu non mi sento when she was 10. Those twins are absolute beasts on the violin

Yes, you're right

Lol😆 so true! love the comment

sohyun is my friend!!!🔥

Dvořák, thats our czech man!

@@tomboybb2845really??

@@Phymacss Yesssss she was my classmate when i was elementry school and i invited her in my home and she invited me too hahaha she is still my friend i call her worldclass sohyuniii

@@tomboybb2845 wow that’s awesome! Please let her know she’s one of my favorite young violinists!

Seems like they mixed up Mieri with Otoha as well -Mieri's violin is the black one

@Da Dolphin Girl yes, I was wondering about that! You're right, Mirei's violin is the black one.

But... can those kids bake cupcakes? ;D

YES! This needs more likes. (Although a moderate amount of bbt is allowed haha)

@@anniejoy7811 Yep, moderate amount of bbt is like a mood booster or a reward! Eddy really gives me a worry tbh, I now understand why my mom worried about me that much whenever she saw me lol

Eddy admitted to being tired at the start of the baking cup cakes vid... They have a HUGE load on their plate atm... and it ain't food.
