 | | Waltz is also the name for the kind of music to which one dances the waltz. | | | In the 1980s a punk rock band, The Stranglers, subverted the Waltz 3/4 time signature with many anti-establishment songs such as Golden Brown. | | | Open rolls are another good example of an Open Dance Figure, in which the lady alternates between the man's left and right sides, with the man's left or right arm (alone) providing the lead. |

| | The waltz is considered the "Queen of all the dances." The first tangible waltz tune appeared in 1670 in a popular song, "O du lieber Augustin."

| | You should be cautioned that most concert recordings of waltzes can be difficult because of fluctuating or overly-fast tempos. | | | Once you know the basic steps, an hour or more of practice with a dance partner is required in order to become comfortable with the pace of the music. | | | You will need to be able to dance at a brisk tempo of between 50 and 60 measures per minute (150-180 beats per second). |

| | Viennese Waltz - Frequently Asked Questions |
| | It is possible to dance the Viennese waltz to the music typically played at the dances there, as long as your partner will also dance the Viennese waltz. | | | There are ballroom CDs available (such as for competitive ballroom dancing) that contain Viennese waltzes, but many of them do not -- in my opinion -- exude the requisite Viennese charm of the waltzes composed by the Strauss family, Lanner, and Waldteufel. | | | If you are selecting dance CDs without being able to listen to them first, you may want to note whether the composers include "Waltz King" Johann Strauss (Jr.) and his compatriots for a real Viennese sound. |

| | A form of Viennese waltz originally came from Bavaria and was danced by the peasantry as early as 1780. | | | This was the dance that arrived in Vienna and came into its own in the 19th century with the "quick-time" Strauss waltzes. | | | In 1833, a "good behavior" book was published by Miss Celbart and according to it, although it was allowed for married ladies to perform this dance, she called it "a dance of too loose character for maidens to perform". |
