My Favorite Things is a 1965 studio album by the Dave Brubeck Quartet, of music by Richard Rodgers. The album peaked at 133 on the Billboard 200.
The album was reviewed by Scott Yanow at Allmusic who wrote that despite being recorded in session three years apart, the music "...has a strong unity about it due to the consistent performances of the veteran group". Yanow also wrote that "The Rodgers songs are treated with respect and swing. This comparatively gentle version of "My Favorite Things" would never be mistaken for John Coltrane's."
