The touching thing about Tchaikovsky and Brahms is that, over a period of time in the 1880's, getting to know each other over several bottles of wine, they actually became merry drinking buddies, despite never becoming admirers of each other's music. -- LA Opus
Brahms and Tchaikovsky weren't birds of a feather,
But their birthdays will always be tethered together.
Since neither composer admired the other one,
Each wished that his day had occurred on another one.
