  • Hi guys, welcome to another episode of TwoSet Violin.

  • Today, we want to learn a new piece,

  • and the piece is called...

  • "Zigeunerweisen".

  • It's a very popular piece,

  • I always have trouble saying it,

  • and I don't know if I've said it right just then.

  • We've never actually officially learned the piece before.

  • So of course,

  • we have to go online and seek out recordings to see

  • what it's supposed to sound like.

  • All right, who's going first?

  • Scissors, paper, rock!

  • Dammit.

  • You go first.

  • So of course, now you gotta try and play it.

  • *snickers*

  • My bow broke...

  • *sigh*

  • Did you hear that she's 12 years old, Brett?

  • She's 12. *sigh*

  • Dude, I think I ruined it.

  • What?

  • Oh, f...

  • Oh...!

  • Time to buy a new bow.

  • What're you doing?

  • There we go.

  • All right.

  • *chuckles*

  • She's so confident.

  • I wonder if she gets nervous.

  • So calm.

  • So in control.

  • So in tune.

  • Such good tone.

  • Such bow control!

  • Good luck.

  • *sigh*

  • - We haven't even gotten to the fast part yet! That's a... - I know.

  • Whoa.

  • Oh.

  • *gasp* Whoa!

  • Oh ho ho!!!

  • She's so like...

  • - As if it's so easy... - I know.

  • Okay, okay. Okay!

  • - It's your turn bro. - All right, bring it on!

  • I need some molto space.

  • What key is it in?

  • C...what?

  • C major, really? No, it's not!

  • - It is! - Oh is it?

  • - No, A minor. - It's—it doesn't—

  • Yeah, it doesn't sound like C major.

  • It is sad that I actually tried.

  • I feel you man.

  • I don't even think I could like...

  • ...do vibrato properly at all.

  • I still can't do vibrato like she does.

  • And I'm 25! *sigh*

  • *laughs*

  • And the "harmonicy" in there!

  • "Harmonics".

  • No no no no no...stop, stop, stop. *laughs*

  • - That's enough. - That's too much. *chuckles*

  • Dude, we're not even in shot, but doesn't matter.

  • Oh, I hit it!

  • Nice.

  • We're almost at the end, guys!

  • - We nearly finished learning the piece. - I know.

  • This is how you learn, we're so close.

  • Tempo has to be the same.

  • Alright, before you start,

  • I just want to check something.

  • Yeah, that's right.

  • Standing ovation. Good.

  • People can appreciate talent.

  • *laughs* Oh!

  • So my goal, to the end.

  • When you learn a piece, what's very important is...

  • ...you have to keep the tempo.

  • I guess that's how you learn a piece.

  • Dude I can't play...I couldn't sightread... *laughs*

  • Thanks for watching.
