These gentlemen sing the "Ballad of the Sneak" song, circa 1936. They appear to be the 1936 version of The Announcer. To add even more takeoff to the Trio/Quartet, "Ballad of The Sneak" is actually only a duet.
Note: The song actually alternates between one-, two-, and three-part vocal harmony. The a cappella introduction seems to comprise three voices in homophony; they are most distinct on the lines "never deigns to speak" and "they just call him the sneak." The "jaunty jackanapes" section takes a call and response format, with a soloist calling and the other two answering in polyphony; again, a total of three parts.
The song is performed by "DaVinci's Notebook".
