Waltzes

I just had an inspiring lesson with a student about waltzes, and it made me want to look up more examples of this amazing dance.

Here are a few interesting waltz selections:

Shhostakovick's Second Waltz
Performed by Andre Rieu and his orchestra - he is a bit of a European superstar. He purchases beautiful gowns and suits for his musicians, and his performances often include an open dance floor.



Viennese Waltzes
This is completely hypnotic, and if you look carefully you can catch the down-up-up steps that they do with their feet.
