Tortoise, Hare, and their music

Hare was the best guitarist in the land. Tortoise was a mediocre composer.

But Tortoise did something special: they published their sheet music, hoping others could outdo them—and they did.

Hare fans covered Tortoise songs better than the originals. Hare could play them hopping on one foot.

As you know, the world changed after Pig’s legendary First Flight.

There was something in the air that summer, and we got the impossible collaboration: Hare performed Tortoise songs. Bird sang, Firefly played a light show, and they all danced on a stage Beaver built.

Today, nobody remembers Tortoise’s music or Hare’s music. But everybody remembers Tortoise and Hare together.
