The Triakontameron is a suite of 30 pieces for piano composed in 1920 by Leopold Godowsky; each was written in a single day and all are written in three-quarter time. The title was inspired by that of Boccaccio’s Decameron. Among the best-known excerpts of the suite are Alt Wien Nocturnal Tangier and Ethiopian Serenade.
