Waltzes and Polkas

When learning the Viennese waltz it can be difficult to locate appropriate music. The tempos of most Strauss concert recordings tend to be too fast for waltzing, let alone learning to dance. And most Viennese waltz arrangements for ballroom dance tend to diverge significantly from the style and spirit of Strauss and Lehar.

Consequently, we have posted several piano recordings of Strauss waltzes and polkas that were performed by Chris Hubbard at uniform tempos for students who are learning the Viennese waltz and polka. Each of these recordings is at a constant tempo, except for the last waltz, which has a gradual tempo acceleration from the beginning to the end.
