The Trois valses romantiques (Three Romantic Waltzes) are a set of three pieces for two pianos by Emmanuel Chabrier.〔Delage R. ''Emmanuel Chabrier''. Fayard, Paris, 1999.〕 ==History== Chabrier began the composition in mid 1880, completing the first two; the third was not completed until the summer of 1883. Chabrier wrote his friend Paul Lacome that he was damned if he knew why he was writing them, as the Enochs (his publishers) will find them too long, too difficult; but that he thought they might sell well, particularly to young ladies who play the piano seriously. Myers notes the considerable demands made on players’ technique.〔Myers R. ''Emmanuel Chabrier and his circle''. J M Dent and Sons, London, 1973.〕 To inform his publisher Georges Costallat that he had finally managed to finish the third waltz, on 3 September 1883 he wrote an acrostic postcard, thus: ''—Oiseau qui se pare des plumes du paon.'' (geai) ''—Qualification de la nommée Carabosse.'' (fée) ''—Note de la gamme.'' (la) ''—Ousqu’il y avait un cheval de bois.'' (Troie) ''—Peintre ordinaire de la place St Marc (Venise).'' (Ziem) ''—Eau de table.'' (Vals)〔'J’ai fait la troisième valse' – I have done the third waltz〕 Ah ! ah ! ah! E. CH. Ile-faulx-Hill-Luminais !〔Desaymard J. ''Emmanuel Chabrier d'après ses lettres.
