You don't march to a waltz.

For Heaven's Sake; if it's not a march, it's the other one!

If you'd listen to your lectures instead of playing with your digital toys in class, you'd know what a waltz is.

Oooooohhhh...you mean the swaying. Okay no need to get sassy with me. I'm just a teenage girl.

yeah okay your right. I'll listen i guess.

ahh, reminds me of

Zwei Herzen im Dreiviertel-Takt

In 3/4 time signature, the music is divided into three beats per measure, with the quarter note receiving one beat. To determine whether it has a swaying or marching feel, you can look at the emphasis placed on the beats.

If the first beat is emphasized, it tends to give the music a downbeat and march-like feel. This is commonly found in marches or dance music with a strong rhythmic pulse, like waltzes.

On the other hand, if the emphasis is placed on the second beat, giving it a stronger feeling, it can create a swaying or lilting sensation. This is often associated with styles like a Viennese waltz or some folk dances.

Importantly, the overall character of the music, the tempo, and the instruments used also contribute to the feeling it evokes.
