A popular music waltz. A country waltz. A folk waltz. Even, I suppose, a Strauss one. But more the other ones, where the waltzness isn't so very waltziobvious.

(What, the spellchecker doesn't know "waltziobvious"??) (Hell, the spellchecker doesn't know "spellchecker"... !)

One of the appeals of the waltz is supposed to be that it reminds us of the human heartbeat. But you know, I don't like to listen to a waltz unless I'm actually dancing to a waltz. But dancing to a waltz can be very comforting.

Here's a waltz just for you: http://members.aol.com/alwaycomp/Fflos_Waltz.mp3

Well it might not exactly, technicaly, be a waltz (I'm not so educated in dance tempos), but it is in 3/4 time.

Oops--Wrong userpic. I meant the dulcimers to symbolize music.

I can see that thing, about the heartbeat.

I love to waltz someone around, and to be waltzed around. Oh but I do so very. When I love that person, that is, especially.

I'm glad you like it!

By the way [livejournal.com profile] sweetmusic_27 wrote me a waltz last year--a much folkier one--which was the first time anyone wrote music for me. I hope you enjoy your waltz as much.
