Waltz - 1920's

[bel2u]

I sometimes wonder if the price we payed for modernization was worth it. u gain lots but u lose a lot too :( I wish we had been able to keep the reels and the waltzes and charlestons :(

[Noppasit797]

Please tell me what is the band playing this song?

[Aaron1912]

It was played by Paul Whiteman and his Orchestra. The Missouri Waltz (1927)

[leoray1234]

Very nice. Interesting that they are dancing a viennese waltz with a hold that today looks more like argentine tango.

@kaan9072 This was between the wars, of course. Your vocabulary leaves much to be desired.

@Emilyxxlou You and me both.

[louisa1832]

@leen436 Thanks for reminding me of this; I just listened to it again. My grandmother used to play this song on the piano.

[LiquidPersonality]

Can someone tell me who wrote this?

[pat7893]

It is called "The Missouri Waltz," written by James Royce Shannon, and reputedly to be the favorite of President Harry Truman.

[Star0Crossed]

[postcardsoflife]

My song 'I'll See You In My Dreams' has a few nice old photos form the '20's.

[nein333]

[uslines]

What a lovely sentimental piece. Makes you want to cry for what have lost.

You folks who enjoy this clip and the dancing styles should check out vintage dancing - there are societies nationwide, where you can learn to dance in historically-accurate method. There may even be footage of it here on youtube - have a look. Of course, some of the footage here is more exhibition-style, but vintage couple dancing is a wonderful thing. I've done it for years, and never tire of it. Great clips, by the way - thanks for posting them!
