I'd say that Eddy in particular likes to take risks. He has a bit of a reactive mood to him that sometimes gets him in trouble, or at the very least puts him into tricky situations like this one. He did very well nevertheless

It’s really not as bad as Eddy thinks, especially for only have one rehearsal with the orchestra, and it’s great that you’re reacting to it. Loved their Bach double, for me it was a big highlight

I think this is such a great example for constructive criticism. I studied art in college and witnessed so many instances of crushing feedback given to students by their professors but also by their peers (sometimes out of jealousy or because of the competitiveness within the system). I get that there is competition for jobs/markets but it often takes away from what art and music are supposed to be: joyful and uplifting. You can try to be your best and improve without having to take others down and then suddenly great things happen through cooperation...

I was dubious so I asked another friend to review it (the one I usually asked) she gave a few minor tweaks. I turned it in for an A. It helps to trust your own work, and moreover, find your best critic. Sometimes our work really is bad, sometimes it’s a matter of taste-the best we can do is find a few people whose opinion we can trust.

I think Ray walks a good line of being constructive but also being the positive bean we all love. I personally love his videos where he rates people because I learn a lot too from them!

I find ray's observation about looking at the instrument while playing really interesting. I remember watching a video of twoset (i dont remember wich one) where eddy says a teacher once told him to ALWAYS look at the instrument while playing, and he said he did not take their advice because they did not explain why he should do that, in that video he was talking about how teachers should explain to their students why they're recommending whatever their advice is, so the student can judge if they wanna do it or not. I hope eddy watches this video and start looking at his hands, at least when playing difficult passages, i think we will improve then

I love the combination of Ray’s genuine reaction and his helpful insights. I have to say that I loved the La Campanella too. It was not flawless by any means, but Eddy (for all his professed anxiety) seems willing to put all of himself out there, and imho, it really helps people connect to the music.

I guess this is part of what Twoset makes Twoset! They are brave and have the courage to go for difficult stuff that wouldn't make much sense to others, but they do it anyway and reach goals only they can dream of!

5:39 is so nice to see that Ray knows what Eddy was going to do and that was to take a deep breath😂

Where can I read about this

@JSB2500

Жыл бұрын

@@M_SC Good point. Here's a long answer. I don't have time to cut it down atm. I hope you find it interesting! TLDR: There are things you can learn about how the brain works that enable you to jump ahead in learning and performing music. Ray calls these "Life hacks". In terms of your literal question "Where can I read about this", I'll be on the lookout for something relevant and try to remember to post it here if I find it. This is close to my professional field and I have a pile of books in front of me, and experimental results from my own studies, but all not in a form I can readily direct you to. I'm piecing together a lot of findings and applying them to playing instruments. The basic principle I'm trying to convey is that humans are FAR less psychological than Classical music musicians often believe. In most cases they try to use their brains in a way that cannot work, and when it doesn't work they blame their nerves, or lack of practice, or whatever, and keep doing the same thing as before even though it didnt work. Here are some basic examples of how undertanding the brain can help succeed as a musician: • If you learn multiple ways of playing something, they will compete to happen during performance. On the piano this can manifest as a seemingly random wrong note. The pianist will likely think they positioned their finger incorrectly and mess with repetition and millimetre adjustments when actually the cause was two competing ways of playing that note. I first noticed this when I saw fingers striking the gap between two notes. That is a gigantic distance error and so not NOT a simple positional accuracy error! It's competing ideas of what to do. (Another example: messy handwriting can be superimposed words e.g. the next word and the current word. Practicing writing neartly does not solve this. Clear calm thinking does). • It is impossible to delete something from your brain. So don't learn anything wrong in the first place. (This is relevant to the point above). • Repetition does NOT work. So DO NOT do it. It simply reeforces errors. Perlman has said something like this IIRC. • Problem solving DOES work. Do it ALL THE TIME! • And relevant to Ray's point: Brains work in CONTEXTS. If you learn something in one context, you will likely not be able to do it in another context. Ray's point is that you will be performing in front of an audience so you must learn in front of an audience. CORRECT! You cannot learn in a practice room on your own and then perform successfully in front of an audience (unless you have someway of not including them in your context in which case you have not connected with your audience => bad performance). When it fails, classical musicians usually blame nerves when actually they were attempting to do something that brains cannot do. A single practice performance with an audicence followed by a sleep can be enough for your brain to adjust to the new context. Imagining well the audience situation may work with sufficient experience. • This is also why your teacher never gets to hear how well you played the piece at home! Again, not nerves. The nerves follow the event (or previous similar events). (BTW: You can solve this one simply by recording yourself at home and playing it to your teacher). • However well you learn a concerto, it will always go wrong when you play it with an orchestra, because the context is different (it's a superset context). (I've heard that some concert pianists can basically ignore the orchestra and do their own thing and hence keep their learning context, but I don't like that approach). • If you fear part of the piece, your brain will model it as something to be feared and will likely go wrong during the performance [I've omitted details here - amygdala etc]. If you see it as your best friend, your brain will model it somewhere else in your brain - somwhere with far greater capacity incidentally. You will then look forward to learning it and playing, just like you look forward to meeting a best friend. • If you only play one piano when you learn, even to virtuoso level, you won't be able to play another piano that's slightly different (action etc). If you do this in public, you might incorrectly blame the situation for the fact you can't play the new (to you) piano. Learning to play several different pianos at that point will be very painful, but after than you'll be able to play a wide range of pianos with ease. It's about your brain building a model of a general piano and learning to control it. The book "On Intelligence" by Jeff Hawkins might help I think. He's made some surprising observations that are obvious in hindsight. For example, having learned something, and then something similar, you have to re-learn the first thing. It's to do with our ability to do abstraction / analogies (apply what you learn in one situation to another situation that is essentially the same but ostensibly different). When we have to re-learn the first thing we often think we're stupid. We're not. It's necessary. I am involved in understanding the brain AND classical music / musicians. ALL the top musicians I know (mostly concert pianists, concert organists, and various violinists) operate their brains in a way that is consistent with [my understanding of] how the brain works. Many/most amateur musicians and uni music students I've known do not! - and usually fail to become good and often give up. There are a lot of myths around, some of which can ruin your chance of success. Since I am involved in both fields, I may write one or more books myself. I very nearly wrote one of memorization in 2021 and may still do that. Crucially, look out for what ACTUALLY works. Ignore reasoning - totally ignore it! What "should" work is no use to you. You need evidence that an idea / method / strategy DOES work. A good way of testing an idea is to put it to a top musician. If they react with a strong negative emotion, it's a bad idea. Pianist Charles Owen had a strong negative emotion when I suggested evolving fingerings. *Everything I've heard Ray Chen say is 100% spot on IMO (i.e. consistent with my understanding of how the brain works). Hence why he's so good. He's also a great communicator, and he communicates what actually works for him not some myths he's picked up along the way, so there's much good stuff to learn from him.* Finally, when you do that pre-performance in front of a pre-audience DO NOT see whether you can succeed, or hope to succeed. You will never succeed 100% so brain will register the event has having failed. Instead, say to yourself and your audience that you are doing this to find out what you don't know. There's always something you don't know so you'll always succeed. Which is necessary. I hope there's something here of value / interest to you.

Wow, that's absolutely true. My teacher (not knowing anything about brain work) always told me the same!🤯 especially about error remembering and playing it again at performance. Very interesting and useful insight. 🙏

Yeah that whole signaling with a grimace to know you messed up is a hard habit to kick. Like, when you are in a lesson, you know your teacher knows you messed up and it’s so tempting to signal you know you messed up so they don’t bring it up later. But then you get told off for the grimace anyway lol.

Eddy and Brett can be easily underrated because of their KZread shenanigans. But they really are first rate performers. Hats off to them, and also to Ray who is honest and respectful and gives away the best information for free.

A sweet constructive review-such a good friend who comments and cheers Eddy on👏🏼

About the looking at the left-hand thing, I recall a video where Eddy mentioned that a teacher taught him about this coz they also compared it to Heifetz' technique. Then, another teacher told him, he doesn't always have to look, which frustrated him because the looking affected his posture 😂

Says as I write this Premieres in 40 hours. Good, I'll just have time to practice my melodica.

And Twoset said in a video, that they only decided to play the La Campanella 2 Weeks before the concert, so in addition to only having one rehearsal Eddy had only two weeks to prepare this piece! Happy Practicing!

I think kindness is a great gift. Thank You for doing your reviews pointing out not only what can be done better but doing it in a positive and kind way, and also for cheering when something is done well. I ❤ you Ray Chen!!!

Can you react to the Bach double as well? Your review is so unique and interesting because you know the two as people so well so it’s not just about the music but also about their personalities, like your comment about Brett being really cheeky.

Can’t wait! Loved your review of Brett’s playing, btw!

I just joined Tonic and it's exactly what I needed! Not only is it fun to chat with people across the globe but it's just the kind of community I've needed to take the quality and quantity of my practice up several notches:) ...and work on my stage fright...

Interesting review. Eddy did a great job and the audience loved it. One thing not mentioned is that Eddy only had two weeks to practice the piece. He and Brett decided to include it in the concert last minute.

Such positive and focused critiquing (is that a word?). To the point and above all helpful. Oh, and entertaining at the same time. Quite a tricky combo to pull off. Bravo.

Great start to summer!

This was wonderful, and for sure I was super surprised to hear they'd rehearsed so little with the orchestra with how famously difficult this piece is. Makes you appreciate it more. Hope you review the Bach double too.

Thank you for pointing out how focus of the mind relates to focus of the eyes, that is super helpful for any kind of performing arts really

I think Eddy's a great musician. (I say that not just from this performance, but from everything I've seen of him). Actually, I see a lot of similarities between Eddy and Ray: they both listen incredibly carefully, understand the context perfectly, identify the most important problem, and find a way to communicate it perfectly. Both have perfect pitch, and an easy manner with great sincerity. I think Ray perfectly conveyed how it feels when the orchestra unravels. The incredible stress on top of the stress from the difficult piece. Incidentally IMO: A minimum of TWO rehearsals are ALWAYS needed. The first one is mostly about finding the problems, not solving them. Best on different days, so you can sleep on the results of the first. Anyway, I believe that this violin "stuff" that's appeared on the internet in the past few years, is amongst the very best things ever. So great to see great musicians at such close range, including how they think and what they think. Well done humans! 😄

"You have to remember that most people probably don’t even know, and so no matter what happens, just try to contain yourself. Containing yourself and controlling yourself your emotions in general on stage is a necessary survival method." --I recently participated in a small performance as a piano accompanist.

Practicing in front of people is huge. I hardly ever get nervous anymore during auditions and small performances, and it's basically b/c I put myself through a gauntlet of playing with a baseline level of pressure throughout my musical career. You eventually reach a point where you know what to watch out for, and that helps you better prepare for more high-stakes scenarios like a big concert. That can really only come with experience.

I love Eddy’s playing.

This performance must be seen as a fun little extra, not to be taken super seriously (two week's notice - ! ) And with that in mind, it was really well done.

Great review ray !!!!!!

Really fun watching your reaction. Nice feedback for Eddy too. :)

Ray Chen is an amazing person

I love to see Ray using a Stradivari again! His modern violin is fantastic and it's such a great thing for modern makers to have their violins being played and favoured over some Strad's or Guarneri's or Guad's etc instead. I think the last modern violin I saw Ray play on was a very powerful Widenhouse.

Thank you for the great review with an amazing quality of commentary, tips for musicians and support to Eddy! P.S. Integrations of piano arrangement of the La Campanella at mins 4 and 14 made me feel like a "hello" for all pianists :) Thanks to the editor!

After watching this video I suddenly know how smart Ray is! He must play the violin with his brain, not only with his hands. He must be always thinking while practicing. He definitely know how to practice smartly.

It is wonderful to be able to have such friends in this crooked world. I'm so happy for the TSV guys because it's never too late to make your dreams come true. Ray is a natural born teacher! I'm sure Sensei Chloe would be proud of you too.

This just proves how much of a prodigy Chloe sensei is, she literally offered the same advice to both of them XD Edit: This is about shifting rather than trying to stretch your fourth too far and finding different fingering to better accomodate the changing through the notes. Probably poor wording on my part XD
