The Waltz
What is it with this piece of music that makes me feel
happy?.....
There is an internet accessible classical music station
which plays a waltz each day at 5:30P.....The pre-dinner
hour.....
As for the answer to my question, I believe it is the
result of the movies.....All those movies, period pieces,
where ladies and gentlemen danced in the palaces of
Europe......I think they even managed to sneak one in
in a John Wayne movie.......
However there was always the 'bad part' when the dancing
was interrupted with some bad war or political news.....
The music stopped and then the star of the movie always
instructed the orchestra leader to "Play on".....So not to
disturb his guests......It was always a grand scene....Pumps
