Re: International and American Waltz

kaira, if you watched Dancing with the Stars, it would answer the other question you posted about wanting good waltz music that is not 30 years old. A majority of the dances performed on the show -- either with contestants or during the professional dances done to the musical guest of the week -- feature more contemporary music. If older songs are used, and I like it when they use standard pieces, they are done in a modern, contemporary version. In fact, the DWTS website often posts what songs the contestants danced to. If I hear something I really liked, but was not familiar with, I check the site and make a note of the piece. Then I have an excellent mix of music for when I am teaching -- all of my parents' old dance albums and the newer tunes out there.
