Hello guys, welcome to another episode of TwoSet Violin.
And today, we have a different format.
We're going to do the Ling Ling Workout in a string quartet.
What are the rules again?
So we've got six pieces that we'll be playing today.
If you wanna hear how they sound,
check out our other video that we made called
The Evolution of String Quartet,
where we play them normally.
But this time, we're gonna be playing them
with the Ling Ling challenges.
Now, the six pieces are...
Shostakovich String Quartet.
Eddy: Number...?
Which one is Shostakovich?
(all) No. 8.
Brett: Shostakovich 8!
- Eddy: Oh yeah, 'cause it's not on there, yeah. - Brett: Yeah, I just thought...
The "Dissonance."
Yeah.
And now the challenges are...
And play it pizzicato.
- Jason: Oh, that's a creative one. - Eddy: Damn! That's interesting. - Brett: Oh!
- Brett: You ready for the next one? - Eddy: Yeah.
Violin 1 swaps with cello.
Violin 2 swaps with viola.
Upgraded.
Piss off!
Nah nah nah.
Oh okay, we have another one.
Oh, this is the best one. My favorite one.
The last challenge is...
- That's alright, nobody looks at the viola anyway, right? - Brett: Yeah.
Andy, you pick the piece.
And then Jason picks the...
Eddy: Just leave this next to you.
Alright. Jason is picking the challenge.
(Eddy, Brett) Oh no!!
It's gonna ruin the most beautiful movement!
All right. What's next?
Brahms!
- Brett: Let's swap. - Eddy: Alright.
Brett: Ohhh my god!
That's hard for this, 'cause there's like,
rubato and stuff.
I thought that was all right!
Next piece.
- Shostakovich, in double speed!! - Oh, no!
- Oh no... Damn! - Brett: All right. - Jason: Yeah!
Dude, that's 240!
I'm maxing out the...!
That's too fast!
If you can play it slowly,
- you can play it quickly, right? - 15 notes a second, let's go!
- Eddy: Nah. I'm out. - Brett: It's too fast!
Next challenge!
Oh, GG!
Andy: How about my melody?
- We're gonna butcher our beloved melody. - Oh, I'm all right!
Dude, I'm so glad it's not the next part.
Dude, we copped that one.
- Brett: Yeah...! It's so chill. - Eddy: You guys were just like, "It's so easy!"
- That one was fine. All right, next one! - Eddy: Nice, nice. Okay!
Brett: Next piece!
Brett: Or challenge.
Oh, no!
Eddy: What...?
Damn!
- Yeah! - Ohh...!
- Eddy: We made it through! - Brett: That last one!
We are together.
He's very good at leading.
- I got so many cues, so I don't get lost. - Eddy: Yeah.
- Brett: Next piece. - Andy: I think one more.
Oh, one more, one more.
Andy: "Dissonance."
Jason: Violins and viola, hold instrument like a cello.
Cello holds instrument like a guitar.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah.
He's gonna bust out some theme song.
- Oh, that was all right! - Oh, damn!
He basically sounded like, perfect.
- Brett: Yeah, he sounded normal. Yeah, yeah! - Eddy: It was so easy for him.
- All right, there you have it everyone! - That's it, guys!
