Scandalous Overtures

Johannes Brahms: Brahms, the Ladies, and the Trick Rocking Chair (1x15)

Air date: Mar 03, 2015

A trick rocking chair in Johannes Brahms' apartment was reserved, almost exclusively, for unsuspecting women. He would offer a seat in the chair to his guests, which would send them either flopping forward or flying backward, eliciting uproarious laughter from Brahms.
