Émile Waldteufel (9 December 1837 – 12 February 1915) was a composer now remembered for his light dance music, especially the "Skaters' Waltz".
Holiday Hints
Among his best known works is "Les Patineurs", known as "The Skaters' Waltz". -- Wikipedia
For the holidays, here's my advice:
Stay away from ballet dancing mice,
And also from elves
Who incarnate on shelves,
But especially waltzing on ice.
