Probably, I would not remember you,
But Tchaikovsky is in the morning of Sunday
In the manor under the "Sentimental Waltz"
Shyly spinning snow spring.

Hide Walsa, away from all,
I thought Radious Avenue:
He is so similar, spring this snow,
What touched the branches does not dare not dare.

And again the smell from somewhere took
And sadness, that time is veins flying ...
Ah, this waltz, sentimental waltz,
Pensive, all from snowflakes white.

I. Volobuev

As the spring in the grass.
As a dream that I see that
How to mean about what i live
With nature in kinship.

Captivating metropolitan vir.

- Many Russian romances are written in the rhythm of the Waltz ... Waltz Romance is a special cabin genre, dance of loved, prelude feelings and expectation of passion.

Romance "Night Svetla" (SL. M. Langua, music. A. Shishkin):
Night light over the river
The moon shines quietly.
And glitters silver
Blue water.

Dark forest there in silence
Emerald branches.
Ring songs
Not singing the nightingale.

Dear friend, gentle friend
I as before love
On this night under the moon
Remember you.

On this night at the moon,
On someone else's side
Dear friend, gentle friend
Remember you about me.

Under the moon blooming
Blue flowers.
This color is blue
Gives the heart of the dreams.

To you Greater Ice.
Your name whisper.
Under the moon, in silence
I am sad with flowers.

Like light droplets or snowflakes
Start magically own silence ...
Leisurely
Glinka melody is growing -
And it clear the bottomless question.
Evil is pushed
Coordination is forgotten,
And the violin of sadness agrees in the hearts.
Mustache, the whole world warms Tchaikovsky,
And, like a beam, kindness extends to the distance.

Waltz is one of the most famous and common dancing on the planet. With all its simplicity, the movements used in it are incredibly elegant. This dance literally sparkles romantic and mutual attraction. Probably, these qualities help him remain among the most popular dances of all times and peoples.

There is no other opinion about where, how and when the Waltz appeared, does not exist. This just does not know no one. The only thing that can be said more or less exactly is that Waltz relative to the Yong. Its age is calculated about two centuries. The name of the dance, as is customary, comes from the word "Walzer" (it.) - "Rotate, spin."

As it is believed, the Proathers of Waltz became the folk dances of several countries - the Czech Republic, England, France. It happened, according to, for example, ld Auerbach, somewhere in the 70s of the 18th century. But this information, as mentioned above, is often contested and are not the only existing opinion on the origin of the Waltz.

The list of ballroom dancing at the court waltz entered only in 1816, under the pre-large number of changes. And he became full ballroom dance and later - closer to the end of the 19th century. The clergy initially did not take this dance, swinging it as "sinful" and "depraved." However, in contrast to the aristocracy, the bourgeoisie gladly adopted a new dance, and instead of spreading in the so-called "Higher Society", Waltz began to conquer recognition in the Bourgeoisian environment.

There are several types of Waltz:

• Vienna Waltz
• Waltz Boston (English Waltz)
• Tango Waltz
• Figured Waltz

As a genre of instrumental works, Waltz was also very popular. Many of all the favorite and famous composers often appealed to him, among them - Strauss, Tchaikovsky, Chopin, Lanner, Glinka, etc. It was they who very much contributed to the development and dissemination of this dance.

Already for quite a long time, the Waltz remains the main dance of all celebrations - graduation, weddings, etc. Starting to walk on the planet somewhere closer to the end of the 18th century, the waltz did not stop his movement for a second and does not stop so far.

Option 2.

For a long time, a person is able to reveal his feelings, show the state of the inner world due to movements, of which there are any dance.

One of the most recognizable and preferred is the waltz. The Word itself causes gentle or solemn sensations associated with the grazing of partner movements, music melodic, romantic setting. Its name causes a slight dizziness associated with rotation in a circle. This is exactly what denotes the German word "Walzen".

The history of this dance is connected with the unification of the elements of the perky dances existing in the Czech Republic, England and France in the XVIII century. After the characteristic changes, they merged into a single, more elegant, measured, but at the same time rapid waltz.

Currently, the concept of Waltz is connected not only with slow movement in a circle, a power step, but also rhythmic, rapid movements. That is why it is customary to allocate several types of Waltz, each of which has its own characteristics.

Around the mid-20th century, the Waltz began to include some figures that did not cause difficulties in performance. They alternated while simultaneously moving around the hall. The figure attracts the simplicity of execution, periodic change of positions, but incessant steep.

Glowing passions between partners is reflected during the execution of tango-waltz. He conveys the story of one of the manifestations of human love - tortured, which every sharp movement fascinates, as if burns.

Viennese Waltz - is characterized by development in movements. At the same time, it does not lose lightness, creating a sense of flight.

The most serious, restrained waltz looks slow. This dance, as a rule, most accurately perform experienced partners. It needs an excerpt, a sense of tact, a considerable number of workouts. From the side of the girl should be felt the female charm, from a man - excerpt and discipline.

A common feature that combines different types of waltz is a two-stroke revolution, each of which is present three steps.

Currently, the Waltz deserves special attention, as it is a mandatory participant in various dance shows, concert programs, fascinating, healthy occupation in free time. Both children and older generations are respecting him, trying to more accurately reflect his essence, which is not expressed in such complex details and a special account.

2, 3, 4, grade 6 in music.

Waltz - from the old-German word "Walzen" - spinning, spinning, slide in dance. Waltz - Ballroom Dance of Musical Size 3/4 with a special focus on the first tact and the main figure "Step-step-closed position". Waltz is a movement or sliding in a living and outstanding manner of execution (it is easily achieved and fulfilled).

Waltz originated in the vicinity of Vienna and Alpine region of Austria. Waltz danced on the balas at the Habsburg yard at the beginning of the XVII century. Much earlier than this time, "spising dances" performed the Austrian and Bavarian peasants. Many easily recognizable waltovoe motifs can be traced in simple peasant peasants.

In the middle of the eighteenth century, the German variety of Waltz was very popular in France. Initially, this dance was danced as one of the countersdance figures (Kadryli) with intertwined hands at the level of shoulders, but soon the Waltz became an independent dance, and "closed position" was introduced. By the end of the XVIII century, this old-Austrian peasant dance was adopted by the highest society with a 3/4 musical size (three quarters).

Despite the popularity of the Waltz in opponents, there was no lack. Dance teachers saw in the Waltz a threat to their profession. The main steps in the waltz could be learned in a relatively short time, while Menuet and other court dances demanded significant practice not only in the study of the many complex figures, but also in improving the relevant positions and behavior manner during dance.

Waltz also criticized on moral beliefs: they objected against too close and close position in dance, as well as fast circling movements. Religious leaders almost unanimously considered this dance vulgar and sinful. European courtiers stubbornly opposed Walsa. In England (country of strict morality) Waltz was accepted even later.

In July 1816, Waltz was included in the Bala program, which gave the Prince Regent in London. A few days later, in the newspaper The Times, the advance article was angrily reported: "We have been watched with pain as indecent foreign dance, called" Waltz ", was presented (we hope in the first and last time) in the English yard on Friday ... It is absolutely enough to take a look at the sensually intertwined limbs and closely pressed the body into a dance to see how far we left from modest restraint, which was still considered a distinctive feature of English women. While this obscene dance was limited by a circle of prostitutes and adulterers, we did not think that he deserves our attention, but now, when the Waltz is trying to penetrate the respectable classes of our society through a civilian example applied to our rulers, we feel obliged to warn every parent against the show This dance is their daughters, for Waltz will inevitably have a detrimental effect on them. " (Source: The Times, London, July 16, 1816)

Even later, in 1866, the article in the English magazine Belgravia reported: "The one who nights the night is watching without much anxiety, like his sister or wife, captured by an unfamiliar man and subordinate to passionate arms, circling in a dance on a small room - the only obvious apology This indecent appeal can only be that all this happens under the sounds of music - it is hardly able to understand that horror, with which the presentation of this immoral dance was met. "

Strong disapproval sounded from the older generation, but occasionally mentioned the fact that the ruling queen (Queen Victoria), who was a beautiful and skilled dancer of ballroom dancing, was experiencing a special passion for Walsa.

But the story, as a rule, repeats again and again, and resistance only served as an increase in the popularity of the Waltz. The bourgeoisie with delight adopted this dance immediately after the French revolution. Only in Paris there existed near the seven of the ballroom halls! The German traveler in Paris in 1804 reported: "This love for Walsa and the complete absorption of the German dance is a completely new phenomenon that has become one of the vulgar post-war habits, such as smoking."

As reported, for the first time Waltz was presented in the United States in Boston in 1834. Lorenzo Paparti, Boston dance teacher, organized a show in the mansion Mrs. Otis - Beacon Hill. Public leaders were stunned by the fact that they called "the diligent, violating all sorts of decency show." By the middle of the XIX century, the Waltz was firmly rooted in the society of the United States.

Music plays an important role in the dance, and each dance depends on the availability of appropriate music. Approximately in 1830, Walsa had a huge support for two great Austrian composers - Franz Lanner and Johann Strauss. These two composers were widely known and popular in the XIX century; They installed the standard for the Vienna Waltz (very fast variation of the Waltz). By 1900, the standard dance circuit for the Waltz was 3/4 and 1/4 for all other combined dances.

By the end of the XIX century, two varieties of waltz were finally formed. The first is the Waltz Boston, a slow waltz with long sliding steps. Although this style disappeared after the First World War, he stimulated the development of English or international style, which exists today. The second variety is the waltz with a delay of a step that includes one step in three times of musical size. Delay steps are still widely used in Waltse.

Fortunately, strong resistance gradually disappeared, and Waltz survived exciting and versatile success. To date, there are two most common forms, both reflecting the main characteristics of the dance. They are known as modern waltz and Vienna (fast) waltz.
