3 feedbacks since you asked for it:
- a mix of funny vids and educational vids on the main channel is the best!
- may be not use AI pictures, please
- and we would need subtitles for more complex video 🙏

[sabrinai]

If violins can get expensive slowly, they can get expensive quickly.

[amelian]

I would love a combination of both! But please make the type of videos that you guys enjoy making the most! We might be able to tell if you make a comedy video but you are not feeling it. Comedy videos will reach a wider audience, but the odd education video is appreciated too ❤

[staceyburwick]

As an orchestra teacher, your videos like these can be super helpful to show to students. I don't mind these in the mix with your more humorous ones!

[frostmoongoddess]

I love the educational format! However, I couldn't help but notice the AI-generated images for the faces of the Amati. Understandably, it's difficult to find portraits, but using AI-generated images does a huge disservice to the actual history you are trying to teach and to the people watching! Love what you guys do, of course, just wanted to give some constructive feedback!

As a twosetter for the past three years, I would say that meanwhile I do like the format of these info-packed educational videos, what I really liked about twoset is their ability to make funny videos (yes, you guys ARE funny) AND pack them with so much information simultaneously. I'd say that I have learnt grade 1-2 music theory just from your videos. So just sayin, you guys have put up a lot of content to entertain and educate, and it might be the time to experiment with these formats. So take the time, we are here watchin' ❤

But seriously, it's fun watching them get into classical nerd mode

[matthewbertrand]

this video fucking rules, dude. i love your comedy, of course, and you do sneak in a quip here and there, but it's awesome as well to see you flex your knowledge and remind everyone that you're not YouTubers that happen to be good at music, you're _musicians_ who happen to be good at YouTube. could get used to watching more video essays in the future, if that's your plan

[adrianalcantara]

Been a fan of twoset for so long, and I believe you guys already succeeded in helping classical music reach a wider audience by making your videos entertaining. You deserve the freedom to experiment with the types of videos you make. I'm all for longer twoset videeeooos

[Marclinian]

I love these longer educational videos, especially as a non-musician. You should definitely keep it up.

One small criticism though is the use of AI generated portraits for some of the older luthiers. I understand that you wanted to give them a visual representation but it feels weird to completely make up a face when we don't know what they looked like.

[ElizaSocha]

I love new "national geographic" format, as non-musician I always appreciate that you can expand my musical knowledge. But of course I also love your funny videos so please do both!

[amrah]

For some reason I believe that twoset are "all-rounders"...you guys can make such a funny videos yet well informed...and now you simply make videos about facts and historical information...and as beginner violinist..I must say I enjoy every minute of this channel...the funny part..and the serious historical part...and you can surely deliever both to us.

After hearing the disclaimer(which was funny itself), I was expecting a much more serious video, but I found it to be nicely balanced, enjoyable and educational. Also appreciated that you used the voiceover when the audio during filming wasn’t clear. Love both the educational and the lighthearted video/games. Keep them all coming 😊

Early 2010s: TwoSet making vlogs about sleeping on the streets
2024: TwoSet playing multiple Golden Period Strads in a single video

It’s hard to put your heart into something you’re not 100% confident or capable of doing, especially humor. Been a twoset fan for a while, and I’m here to say that you guys should make whatever videos you guys want. It’s YOUR channel!! I love the funny videos from long ago, just as much as I love the new, longer videos(especially because I get to learn!). You’ve succeeded in reaching a big audience, which was your goal to start. You’ve worked hard, and are STILL working hard. YouTube isn’t your only platform anymore, so have some fun with it! I’m always here to support no matter what decisions you guys make :) thanks again for a wonderful video!

[jlgochi]

I remember the first videos where twoset pretty much were allowed to watch strads from far away and play just a tiny bit… and here we are. Now it feels and they look so natural around them after the 4 mil concerto. How nice it is to see you guys having come so far as musicians without following the traditional path for famous violinists. Much respect to you and all the hard work that brought you to this point.

As a old "mom" (lots of students, no kids) I really enjoy these informative videos. I love when you play pieces etc. too. HOWEVER, you guys are funny so sprinkling in the fun competitions etc. are very appreciated. Keep up the great work!

[beanwhoedits]

These longer-form, more educational videos are awesome. Thank you for providing such comprehensive and in-depth context that I think most consumers of your content appreciates. I'd suggest you both keep talking about the topics that inspire you because like in this video, your passion really shines and makes me eager to listen. When you're excited about the content, it's lovely to watch. There's plenty of room on your channel for all the styles of videos, and I extend my kudos to the whole TSV team for all their hard work!

[luana-oerp]

Hi guys! I think most of us twosetters love this type of content! We do like the funny content too (especially the music related games for me), just keep doing what you love, we love you guys and your videos ❤

[babymamhu]

I love the fun, silly content, but I also enjoy this more serious content. I learned a lot, and it was so cool to see and hear the violins. Also I would be terrified to touch anything that has survived since 1716, that’s insane.
