Zequinha de Abreu (1880 - 1935) was one of the prominent Brazilian composers of the Belle époque, most famous for the piece Tico Tico No Fuba. However, he also wrote many waltzes, tangos and other dance music.

This is a collection of his waltzes, hauntingly beautiful and sentimental, filled with charming melodies. His waltzes take a typical form: a melancholic first part in a minor key, followed by a contrasting second part, and the mood lightens with a lighter hearted third part in a major key. The first part is reprised several times.
