All Jazzed About Brahms

Besides Peter Tchaikovsky, yesterday, 7 May, was also Johannes Brahms' birthday anniversary (7 May, 1833 - 3 April, 1897). He was the very last of the Romantic era classical music composers.

There are many pop recordings of PT's music, but few renditions are found on Brahms' works. With my recent trip to N'awlins and had the opportunity to listen to some great music, I thought it apropos to post the ubiquitous 'Brahms Lullaby' played as Dixieland Jazz.
