Wow, this is pretty sudden. I wonder what the real story here is. Both have grown a lot as musicians and violinists over the last 11 years, so I wonder if one or both of them has picked up an agent for a solo career that really didn't want the twoset channel being up. That would be a really stupid decision, but I can see it.

Or they want to move away somewhat from comedy. Note that earlier this year they started another channel, TwoSet Talks, which is things like them interviewing people, telling behind the scenes stories from their tour, commenting on things, and other typical talk show stuff.

Also, they are starting something called TwoSetAcademy.com. I don't know if they have given details but if you go there the heading says "WANT TO BE THE NEXT LINGLING?" and the subheading says "Professors Yang and Chen are waiting for you...", and it asks if you play violin/viola, do not but want to learn, or neither.

If you say yes it then starts asking for more on that like your level. If you say you want to it asks what other instruments you play if any. If you say neither it asks if you would be interested in learning other classical music topics.

A lot of music channels end up running some sort of teaching platform. Violinist Ray Chen for example has something called "Tonic". I've not really looked into it but it seems to be some kind of virtual practice room where you and other people using it can encourage each other and give each other feedback.

Brandon Acker, whose channel is mostly serious classical guitar and older string instruments (lute, theorbo, oud) with a few fun side things has Classical Guitar Pro which has video classes and you can post videos of your progress to a private Facebook group for Acker to comment on. He also has Arpeggiato.com which is described as an online music school for "everything that goes pluck", which has a bunch of teachers giving online private lessons. They've got teachers for classical guitar, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, lute, theorbo, early plucked instruments, ukulele, mandolin, bass, oud, flamenco guitar, baroque guitar, and voice. They also have masterclasses and workshops directed by Acker.

It's similar for YouTubers in the non-classical world. For instance Samurai Guitarist has the Samurai Guitar Dojo where he offers his Samurai Guitar Theory courses. Charles Cornell has Better Piano.

I doubt that's it. "We're stepping away from this project to focus on our solo careers" is an extremely established & acceptable play for musicians. To such an extent that it's often stated disingenuously to cover other conflict or scandal. If it were that they would have just said it.
