Four jolly men

Four jolly men sat down to play,
And played all night till break of day.
They played for cash and not for fun,
With a separate score for every one.
When it came time to square accounts,
they all had made quite fair amounts.
Now, not one has lost and all have gained -
Tell me now, this can you explain?

    They weren't playing a game but music...they're a band/quartet.

    And I thought this was going to be a hard one. Are you all musicians?

    "Are you all musicians?"
    Only in the minimalist sense.
