"Intermezzo No. 1" is an instrumental track from Swedish pop group ABBA's self-titled third album, released in April 1975. It was the first of only two tracks by the group not to contain lyrics; the other was the title track of their 1976 release, Arrival. It is the only purely instrumental ABBA song however, as "Arrival" includes "a static layer of rich harmony vocals". On the cover, the song is credited as "Intermezzo No.1 featuring Benny Andersson".
