Why do so many marches and waltzes follow a predictable chord structure in the first theme? (and sometimes the other themes as well) - for example in this waltz in A major, the last part of the first theme modulates up a fifth to E major. Yawn! SO MANY tunes are written this way!
Were the composers' music professors standing over them with a big ruler threatening to beat them if they created a chord structure that was not the norm at the time?

The tune is called "Aimer toujours", a French waltz composed by H.Paradis.
