Afro-Cuban composer Joseph (José) White Lafitte studied violin and composition at the Paris Conservatory between 1855 and 1871, winning the 1856 First Grand Prize. He eventually became a French citizen in 1870, leaving Paris only for a period of time between 1877 to 1889 when he was director of the Imperial Conservatory in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. White composed mainly for his own instrument, which happened to be the famous 1737 Swansong Stradivari violin. In addition to numerous etudes and a virtuosic violin concerto, White wrote this habanera for two violins, La Bella Cubana. In this string orchestra arrangement, the lyrical melodic solos are spread throughout the orchestra. Traditional Cuban dance rhythms in the contrasting middle theme capture the vibrant joy of the original work.

Newspaper advertisements of hotels and music halls announced: 'Boulanger plays today' - Georges Boulanger (1893-1958) was one of themost famous café violinists and band leaders of his time. He performed in Romania, Russia, Dresden, Berlin, London and Brazil and appeared on the screen next to many film stars in the 1930s/1940s. He left about 250 compositions, all of which were inspired by Balkan folklore and light Viennese music. Avant de mourir, written in 1926 and known as My Prayer in English-speaking countries, is one of his greatest hits which was recorded on vinyl by Glenn Miller, Jimmy Dorsey, Ella Fitzgerald, Lionel Hampton, Bert Kaempfert,Gene Krupa, Dean Martin, Roy Orbison, and Engelbert Humperdinck. The version of The Platters from 1956 reached the top of the charts. The wistful piece was often used in films as well.
