Brahms’s Hungarian Dances were acts of arrangement from the start. First published for piano four hands, they drew on the style and melodies he encountered through Hungarian and Romani musicians, and Brahms orchestrated only three of the twenty-one himself. Jazz versions continue a history in which the music has never belonged to just one instrumentation.
