Ernesto Júlio de Nazareth (March 20, 1863 – February 1, 1934) was a Brazilian composer and pianist, especially noted for his creative Maxixe and Choro compositions. Influenced by diverse rhythms like the polka, the habanera, and the lundu, he combined these elements with his classical formation to create compositions that he called “Brazilian tangos." These would be the precursors for what is known today as Choro. His piano repertoire is now part of the teaching programs of classical and popular styles, as Nazareth once served as the boundary between these two worlds.
