Australian violinists Brett Yang and Eddy Chen founded TwoSet Violin in 2013, and since then, the violin duo has risen to international fame through their successful YouTube channel, which currently reaches over 4.3 million followers.
TwoSet Violin strives to make classical music more relatable and accessible to a wider audience via their vibrant online personas. With over 9.5 million followers across their social media platforms and over 1.5 billion views to date, they inspire musicians of all ages worldwide with their witty humour and their relatable “imperfections.”
The duo’s world tour has already given sold-out concerts at venues such as Boston’s Symphony Hall, New York’s David Geffen Hall, Chicago’s Symphony Center, Seattle’s Benaroya Hall, the Sydney Opera House, and the Kammermusiksaal at the Berliner Philharmonie. Their work has also led to collaborations in videos and on stage with world-class soloists such as Lang Lang, James Ehnes, Janine Jansen, Maxim Vengerov, and Hilary Hahn.
TwoSet Violin’s one-of-a-kind live performances offer a unique interactive experience for audiences, seamlessly weaving current social media trends into the fabric of traditional classical concerts, all while upholding the integrity of classical music. They draw in a particularly diverse global audience, including many who have never attended a classical concert before. Their mission is to make classical music accessible to all, which is at the heart of all their activities.
In 2022, in celebration of reaching 4 million subscribers on YouTube, TwoSet Violin was loaned two Golden Age Stradivari violins from 1708 (“Empress Caterina” and “Regent Superb”) from Tarisio New York to perform with the Singapore Symphony Orchestra. The concert was sold out in under two minutes.
