With the skilled cast and Carol as the organizer, ‘The Carol Burnett Show’ featured one hilarious skit after another. Harvey Korman and Tim Conway performed a legendary sketch in which they dueled on pianos.

Harvey completes his song while sporting a weird gray wig and mustache. He speaks to the audience with a French accent. He advises them to give money to impoverished children so they can learn to play the piano as he does.
A younger pupil, played by Tim Conway, rolls out a piano next to Harvey’s, and Harvey announces that he will perform a duet with one of his students. Tim’s wig is dark with huge curls, and the audience adores both players’ looks.

They both offer one another the chance to sit first, and they end up fighting over it until Tim finally sits down in anger. He proceeds to crack every finger slowly and loudly and even pauses and cracks his nose.
Tim tries to raise and lower his seat to the perfect height while spinning on it. Then, Harvey starts playing, and Tim is confused, staring at him. Tim shows Harvey his music, and they have different songs.

Tim starts to play the other song, and Harvey gets mad and shuts him up. Tim walks up to Harvey’s piano and kicks out the leg, causing his piano to fall. Tim begins to play his song, and Harvey walks over and breaks the music holder over Tim’s head.
Tim looks at the audience cross-eyed while they laugh. Tim jumps on Harvey’s piano while he plays, and with every note Harvey hits, Tim bounces. Harvey looks at Tim with a smile, hits a bunch of random notes at once, and Tim goes flying from the one piano and crashes into the other. It is the ultimate piano duel performed by two masters of comedy!
