Waltz lessons
Acquaintance of an English society to a waltz in a XIX-th century had
scandalous character. Never earlier the man and the woman did not dance
on public, actually having embraced. Fortunately, grace and beauty of
a waltz, and the English society have been noticed, hastened to condemn
this dance, finally has opened for it the embraces. For example, queen
Victoria, the excellent performer of ballroom dances, felt strong passion
to a waltz. Johann Strauss showed an enviable constancy to a waltz, having
made its dominating tendency in the dance world; composing waltzes with
fast rates, it, thereby, has paved the way for occurrence of fast Viennese
style. The slowed down American style of a waltz creates smooth and graceful
sliding in dance with soft liftings and knee-bends. For today the waltz
remains to one of the oldest ballroom dances and, probably, the most favourite.
Music
Waltz – unique dance as it is unique
ball dance with the musical size 3/4 (three quarters). It means that each
musical share is broken into three steps. It is possible to count a rhythm
so «1-2-3» or "time-time-time". For a waltz typically three
steps to each step, an exception is the waltz with a step delay. The leading
foot changes in each step (that is, left-2-3-pravaja-2-3). Therefore waltzes
usually write under a combination of series from six steps. For example,
the man begins the first figure combination LRL (left-right-left) and
second figure – RLR (right-left-right), thus finishing a full combination
from six steps. |
