Good Evening,
old fashioned wiener waltz was my ambition for this piece produced by Finale and GPO using strings only. The title ´joyful´may come as a surprise but dancing is usually a joy. Hope to get some criticism and comment for this tune.

Nice to hear a waltz in these parts! Offbeats in accompaniment especially sound a bit programmed. This is true of the other lines at times as well. Also the distribution of the string parts doesn't sound to me like a Vienese waltz and the whole thing is often quite muddy. Have you consulted the Strauss waltzes to see how he scores the strings?

Thanks for your feedback. You gave me a few things to think about.
