CAESAR'S WALTZ. American, Waltz. E Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. Composed by Marty Somberg (Dexter, MI) in 1992. The tune is named after a character named Caesar, one of two Cuban musician brothers, in the book and motion picture "The Mambo Kings Play Songs of Love," by Oscar Hijuellos. Somberg says the story is one of "passion and longing and I tried to capture that feeling in the tune."
