TwoSet Violin, the beloved musical comedy duo formed by Australian violinists Brett Yang and Eddy Chen, has announced the conclusion of its creative journey.
In a heartfelt message on social media, the duo expressed, “This will be the last piece of content we post as TwoSet Violin. It’s been a wild ride with you all for the last 11 years. We’ve all grown up together, and it’s kinda surreal that we’re ending our chapter here.”
They continued, “Thank you for all the laughs, the genuine encounters in real life, and all the special moments we’ve had with you online and offline. Much love, Brett and Eddy.”
Their announcement has sparked an outpouring of gratitude and appreciation from fans. Renowned violinist Hilary Hahn shared her congratulations on Instagram, stating, “So many congrats on a job well done! And thank you for everything you have done for the musical community. Not just classical! You guys rock.”
However, the news has also left many in the TwoSet Violin community feeling confused and in disbelief. The duo has removed the majority of their video content from YouTube, leaving only 29 videos available. Additionally, their Instagram account now features just two posts, and many updates from Yang and Chen’s personal accounts have been deleted.
TwoSet Apparel, the duo’s clothing brand, also shared a farewell message, stating, “It’s time to say goodbye,” and encouraging fans to take one last chance to purchase their favorite items.
TwoSet Violin gained popularity through their engaging YouTube videos, which aimed to introduce classical music to wider audiences. The duo often infused humor into their content, poking fun at themselves and classical music, while also addressing important issues like mental health awareness within the classical music scene.
In August 2020, the duo was featured on the cover of The Strad, where they discussed their social media success and their ventures into live performances.
In November 2022, they celebrated a significant milestone of reaching four million YouTube subscribers with a performance alongside the Singapore Symphony Orchestra, for which they were loaned two 1708 Stradivari violins from the maker’s renowned ‘Golden Period.’
