The waltzes are compiled in no particular order.

Dance with the Balamb-Fish is not a waltz, nevertheless I thought it would be appropriate to add both of Nobuo Uematsu's dance themes.

Is it weird that this makes me nostalgic for a time I never existed in? ❤️

[LadyAristotle]

I can only imagine how beautiful the dancing area might have looked with ladies on ball gowns and men dressed in suits dancing in this lovely music. (sigh).

I wish we were back in the era of Ballroom dancing and ballets and opera. Where women wore fancy dresses that were big and puffy. Where men acted with chivalry and kissed ladies hand when they entered the room. If 😔

[maylinegarcia]

Someone needs to bring this tradition back. Ah, how I wish to live in the past!

[Tea_Noire]

I wish that waltzing was still considered sexy.

[MarkFilipAnthony]

I love how death note is randomly put in there between all the old classics

[pumpkinpurrs]

I wish prom was replaced with a ballroom.. oh well ):

[Jinx_.StandsForJinx._Durr]

I am 14 years old and I have wished forever to live when waltzing was a big thing, I've fallen in live with the ladies dresses and and the chivalry of the men. I really wish this were still the thing. I still love our music of the 2000s and stuff, but this. This is what I love

If only the world could stay this beautiful where the balls were grand and dancing was a way of socializing. If only the ladies of nobility could wear these stunning dresses again and the men could dress this sharp. I wish times wouldn't change sometimes. My heart yearns to go back in time and waltz to this music.

[jackiesworld]

I wish people still was this elegant and would wear beautiful dresses and nice tux and would go to a ball to socialize

[janiebeyondthesea]

These dance parties must have been wonderful.

[catperson]

I wish I was born at a time where this happened regularly.

[bruhmoment]

[CristinaJeanDonato]

❤ MAGNIFICENCE. WIR LIEBEN ALLE DIE LEUTEN in den Orchesteren

[jcmarieb]

I wish I would have been able to dance at one of those balls...The clothes, music, atmosphere, ... LOVE IT!

[milicavrzogic]

Kakva prekrasna muzika, kakve božanstvene haljine, kakva raskošna elegancija, kad bi vremeplov mogao da vrati vreme nazad da današnje mlade generacije dožive ovu lepotu. Predivno...

This culmination of music is a beautiful example of an age of elegance and grandeur and an age long gone.

There is music one can hear while all alone, and there is music one may hear in a  crowd. But the waltz music is that music  that raises the spiritual relation  of a man and a  woman as a  natural pair. It  may start as a glance amongst certain musical  notes which may be followed by a conversation over a glass of wine. But sooner of later the relation will  follow the need of the magic of a dance which is not equalised  by  any other music but a waltz. Quicksteps, foxtrots, sambas, rock and roll may have their moments but the relation of man and woman is best depicted with a waltz. The unity that a waltz brings between a man and a woman is enhanced by the steps and the turns which if  executed at the right pace and rythm with the music will liven up the internal spirits to a harmonious combination of mental and synchronous unity that no other situation many offer.  To see a  dancing hall filled with dancing pairs who know their relation with the partner and the music, well it is like a garden where beautiful flowers sway with the wind. But it is more than that.
I miss my dancing at the Odeon in Gillingham Kent 60 years ago when  music was live,  " may I have this dance?" brought about many answers but on the whole the Saturday night  sessions brought about a relation with those present, a gift that will see you through the week till the next, waltz, a week later.
