No, I really don't. I just heard a dixie version of Midnight in Moscow several times as a child, my father had it in some collection LP, so maybe it was the same version. But I didn't listen to any version when I played this, it was by 'dixie feeling'. So I'm quite sure the improvisations of clarinet and trombone cannot be identical to any original. But certainly I had the idea of this song as a dixie in mind from havinv heard it as a child ;-)

I play the church organ. Bach fugues including foot pedal are really a hard coordination training... It took me about a year to get the left hand independently move from the feet when I took the first lessons in 1985... But still, dixie with three improvising parts - no way.

OK; have a listen to this song and then tell me if it's the same LP your father had (...I am kind of embarassed now, because I still have this LP... )

Actually, now that I have heard the song again I am kind of nostalgia-struck, and think that it would be a lot of fun to record this song, doing all the improvisations, countermelodies, etc, in sync... You learn a lot of things in the process.

Why embarrassed? I'm almost sure that it is the same version I heard as a child, especially the ending phrase sounds very familiar. Maybe I can check my father's collections in a few days, I guess it was an LP of various artists from the 1960s or 70s.
