Шаблон:Infobox person Шаблон:Short description Abraham de Caceres or Casseres (fl. 1718-1740) was a Dutch Jewish composer of the late baroque period.
Caceres is primarily known as the composer-in-residence to the Amsterdam Sephardic community between 1720 and 1740.[1] He preceded the Gentile Christian Joseph Lidarti who was commissioned to compose Esther in Hebrew.[2]
He set to music the poems of Moses Hayyim Luzzatto.[3][4] He also composed two melodies found in the Kabbalistic work Hon Ashir which was authored in 1730–31 by Rabbi Immanuel Hai Ricchi.

Some of his works are preserved in the Ets Haim Library.[5][6]
