There are no household chores in music.
Charlie Parker didn't do windows. Louis Armstrong didn't mow the lawn. And Ella Fitzgerald didn't bake cakes.
We think of these jazz legends, not as regular people, but in terms of their music - which transcends such mundane and menial tasks.
But what we often forget is that at the end of the day, just like the rest of us, they went home.
