Ehhhhh!
Hey! How's it going?
Welcome back to another episode of TwoSet Violin!
And today, we will be doing some...
We're both going to start composing something for two violins,
and then every minute, we're gonna swap.
And after maybe five swaps, if we have something decent,
- we'll perform it at the end of this video. - Hehe.
There are three pouches.
One [has] the 12 keys, the 12 notes.
One pouch determines major or minor,
and the other one [has] key signatures-
- Not key, time signatures. Yeah. - Time signatures.
First key.
Tada!
F for failure!
Major!
- Not too bad, F Major... nice key. - Oh, B-flat! I like that!
3|4!
Okay, okay!
My turn, my turn, my turn.
So I already know it's gonna be a minor key,
'cause there's only one left.
This one...
- Pwahahaha! - C-sharp minor!
- C-sharp minor, what the heck is that? - C-sharp minor!
That's messed up, bro.
Four sharps...
5|4.
Alright, set a timer!
- Every minute... we swap. - Mhm.
Three, two, one, go!
Bro, I can't think.
Improvise!
Do not think too much!
Oh, it's 3|4- I forgot it's 3|4.
*MIDI violin sound*
Is it coming out of the laptop or my... this?
(*MIDI violin sound*) It's coming out of your laptop!
Oh, pause bro!
What the hell!
Technical failure, guys!
This computer's now gonna be playing out of speaker.
Sometimes, old-fashioned is just better!
Exactly! See?
Wired.
Three, two, one, go.
I think I completely messed this one up.
No, no!
Hehehe.
No, time's running out!
- Ohh! - No! Are you serious?
I don't think one minute's enough.
Maybe we need a bit more time.
- Maybe two minutes per round. - Okay, two minutes.
(Eddy) Oh wow.
That's a lot of semiquavers.
Round 2!
Three, two, one, go.
Oh God...
Oh s***.
How do I get rid of notes?
Oh!
Dude, I wrote like, four notes!
I [messed] up, that's not what I wanted!
This is... tricky.
- Anyway... - Great things take great time!
Unless you are Mozart, and you can compose
an overture in the morning of the performance.
Wow, this really actually says a lot about Mozart.
For us mere mortals, to compose a symphony takes time.
Three, two, one, go. Round 3.
What the f***!
Bro, you broke four-part harmony rules!
My voicing!
I didn't have time to write all my chords!
Oh, I hate that. I made a mistake.
There's no thing as a mistake when there's jazz!
Let's gooo!
- (Brett) No... - I'm gonna edit this.
- Oh! - Ohh! Ho ho ho!
- Okay. Alright, okay. - (Eddy) Round 3.
Wow, this is tricky.
We should make it that we... listen first, and then start.
Why?
Ah, this is funny.
I'm gonna change a note, 'cause I think it'd be funny.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven...
At least gotta get eight bars, right?
I moved your thing from 2nd violin to 1st violin.
- Is that alright? - (Brett) That's fine.
- I think it'd be funny. - No rules.
I'm quoting Kreutzer's study, man.
Ooh!
Wait...
Ah, 5|4.
- Oh! - Ah, are you serious?
- This is almost finished, actually. - Oh really?
- Yeah! - Wow!
- I mean... - I just tried to go for eight bars in this.
(Eddy) Yeah.
Alright, let's listen.
What the f***!
Dude, that's not 5|4, bro!
Yeah! But I couldn't...!
- You're just like, "Minim, minim, minim!" - Yeah! I totally forgot.
Three, two, one, go.
Ahh!
Ah, what is this?
How do you add like, stuff, you know?
- Ahh! - Oh no! No!
I want triplets here!
Trip- put triplets here!
I'll do what I want!
Noooo!
Getting there.
Let's go!
This is so dumb!
Ahh, how do I do the thing...?
Ahh!
- Are you done? - I guess that's done. Yeah!
So what now? Should we listen, or should we just play it?
Should we just play it?
- (Eddy) Yeah! Let's play it! - (Brett) Let's not even listen to it!
Let's just play it.
Oh wait, there's no tempo marking or anything.
- I'm playing 2nd for this... - Okay hahaha! Oh no!
One, two, three...
Ah! Sorry, sorry.
Ah!
So it's like a...
- tongue twister for the bow. - Yeah.
Anyway...
Wow.
What the hell did you do there?
That's not triplets, bro!
- Why are you holding the note? - It has three beats!
Two, three!
I'm like, "...what?"
Damn, that was actually pretty fun!
- I actually... I quite liked your syncopation. - Yeah, exactly.
Initially, I was like, "That's not 5|4."
But then, I think it was quite interesting.
You know what it is?
Alright guys, education time.
You know augmentation?
So there's 5|4, right?
But look here...
This is 5|2.
One, two, three, four, five.
Mmmmmmmm!
- Alright! That was fun! - Yes!
Don't know how Mozart does it, but here we go.
Can you imagine?
An entire orchestral overture in the morning of the premiere...
It's like, "Hey yo, we need something like, by noon."
And he didn't have freaking Sibe... he can't...
- Copy and paste, right? - If he writes it wrong with the quill, he's screwed!
Remember, it doesn't matter what happens.
You have to practice your scales!
*Plays F Major scale*
Are you ready?
