     I think it's a wonderful effort, my only reservation
being that I get much more of a Viennese feel and mood
from it than a Buenos Aires one (as you probably know,
both waltzes have similar tempos, but different moods,
which, of course, is highly subjective and not easily
defined).  I'm tempted to give a copy to our local
ballroom teacher to try out in class for a Viennese
routine at ASU.

     I also agree with your other correspondents that
the first version was too fast.
