Brise Napolitaine is a classic valse musette for accordion. It was written by Jean Peyronnin and Vetese Guerino and was first released in 1933 by Guérino et son orchestre musette de La Boîte à Matelots. The tune remains a staple of the musette repertoire and has been recorded by many accordionists, including Yvette Horner et son ensemble musette in 1954, with a mono version issued in 1959 on the BNF Collection. It is often described as a Paris cafe style waltz - a tender piece that captures the charm of mid-20th century French accordion music. The song has appeared in various formats and is used in accordion instruction books such as Accordéon facile Vol.3 by Editions Henry Lemoine.
