The most obvious is that Viennese Waltz is about twice as fast as English (slow) Waltz. There is less rise and fall, the alignment is slightly different, the amount of rotation in the turns is greater and there are much fewer figures. But the mechanics of the natural turn are very similar. The music itself is also a little different, besides the fact that Viennese is faster. Its also more upbeat and has a heavy accent on the first of every two measures. A lot of Slow Waltz is known for its characteristic romantic, sometimes even sad quality. This is actually not a reflection so much of the speed or tempo but rather the fact that the melody is often written in a minor key. If youre a musician you will know that only one note needs to be changed in the scale and it gives the song an entirely different tone. If youre not a musician and this interests you, Im sure you can google minor key and you will be up all night. The dancers demonstrating here are Victor and Ana. You can Google them and you also will be up all night.
