2 Dueling Pianos Take the 'Duel' a Bit Too Literally in This Funny Skit from The Carol Burnett Show

Harvey Korman and Tim Conway face-off with dueling pianos in this hilarious skit from The Carol Burnett Show!

At the beginning of the video, Harvey Korman (looking like Beethoven while playing the piano) does a splendid intro. He stands and bows as he shares in a French accent comically about how he is going to play a musical duet with his prodigy.

That's when Tim Conway walks out and bows. Harvey comically shares that he has selected the “Intermezzo for Two Pianos.” 

The Dueling Pianos Of Harvey Korman And Tim Conway

Each man hysterically tries to invite the other to start. They crack their fingers and stretch dramatically before they begin to play. The audience laughs. After popping each finger, the prodigy pops his nose. The dueling pianos finally seem set to begin, only it turns out the prodigy is still not ready!

They both meet towards the middle, and the prodigy switches sides with him. Tim Conway unexpectedly goes to the other piano. He spins the seat and does all of these strange and humorous warmups before playing the piece. He looks surprised at the music.

The teacher begins to play, the prodigy cannot read the music. After playing the intro three times, the prodigy gets up and walks toward him. He just watches the teacher the entire time. 

Suddenly, he begins playing what the prodigy has on his sheet back and forth, causing the teacher to play two different songs. It is comical. The two have very different pieces of music printed. This is not going well. The two clearly have frustrations with each other as they begin to bump and destroy one another’s pianos and hit one another. They are playing their dueling pianos from the floor, smashing each other's fingers, and smashing through pianos.

In this hilarious skit, we are reminded that we are called to work together, not against each other. We can easily create competition where God has called us to be unified.
