I am wondering what you think of this waltz music. it's actually in 6/8 but I always have preferred 6/8 over 3/4.

let me know what you think. I can provide an mp3 if you want because this link has some video background noise.

it is on the quick side, but that is also my preference.

thank you for your comments.

It is too fast for a waltz but will work as a Viennese waltz. If you're really good, you could pull it off. Difficult to stay on beat otherwise.

A Waltz is 3/4 timing. Modern Waltz should be 28 bars of music per minute .
A Viennese Waltz should be played at 58 BPM. March Time music is played 6/4 and should be 60 BPM.. The Paso Doble is played in March Time which is 6/8 at 60BPM
How one is able to dance a Waltz routine to March time music beats me.
