OK, it's not actually drag-n-drop, but you could just right-click / Open 
With ... / QT Player
One extra mouse action (plus you need to hit the space bar to make it play.)

You might even be able to set the default action for mp3 to be play with 
QT Player - but that's beyond my level of Mac knowledge ...
