While I do not consider this piece, nice though it is, to be of
importance, I confess that I was utterly ignorant of the existence of a
composer by that name.
Perhaps even this erudite forum might have members similarly unaware of
his (probably not: her) existence.

Arnaldo Cohen makes something of a specialty of the "Valsa No. 7" of
Radames Gnattali (1906-88). It is a lovely and infectious little piece
and can be heard on Cohen's "Three Centuries of Brazilian Music" on BIS.

Per the notes, Gnatalli was conductor of the Orquestra da Radio Nacional
in Rio. Valsa No. 7 comes from a 1939 collection of 10 waltzes.
