Ballroom dance music?

on: September 19, 2008, 10:12:08 PM

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knew any good piano music that could be danced to. I'm looking namely for a slow waltz and a Tango.
I believe most Strauss waltzes are of the Viennese sort, which is very different from slow waltz, and some others, such as Chopin, are not really dance-able.
For Tango something maybe minor would be nice
Any suggestions?

Thanks

maybe Horowitz danse excentrique

but the Strauss waltzes are probably your best bet

How about looking at some Landlers? which is a slow German waltz
the Brahms waltzes are nice but i don't know if they are any good for dancing too
