"Eight Days A Week"

I used to love the Beatles song, "Eight Days A Week" until Ben and Zachary were assigned a duet to play the song for their lesson. They share the same teacher and go one after another.

I have heard the song over and over. A saxophone and clarinet. Not sure what key they are playing in, but I can tell you it's not the same one for both of them.

Near wrestling over the music sheets.

Zachary trying to play from the floor, lying on his back.

Giggling. Teasing.

Don't you know a rest?

One, two, three..

NO! One, two...

Rest, rest...

ZACH!

Never mind.

Huge burst of laughter.

I gotta talk to their teacher. A duet is not such a good idea. I should be grateful, though, they have not hit Pachelbel's "Canon" yet.

I find it most interesting, however, that their mother- the one who is the musician and insists they take lessons through high school- is never here during the practice sessions.

Curious.
