Nunley’s carousel names the first of three pieces in this genre by Billy Joel. This genre makes up most of the works of Romanian composer Ion Ivanovici, including one that shares its title imagery with a piece in this genre by Juventino Rosas, “Over the Waves.” A piece in this genre originally titled Hand in Hand was written for a “toast of friendship” made between Wilhelm II and Franz Joseph I. The best known composition of Émile Waldteufel is a piece in this genre inspired by an ice (*) skating rink. In the first of five themes of a piece in this genre, ascending triads are answered by two staccato A’s, then two F-sharps. Tales from the Vienna Woods is by a composer whose more than 500 pieces in this genre includes The Blue Danube. For 10 points, Johann Strauss is called the “King” of what triple meter dance genre? ■END■
