Music cover for Valse a Deux Tems (Temps)
Music cover for Valse a Deux Tems (or Temps), meaning Waltz in Two Beats or Two-Step Waltz, a popular style of waltz in the mid-19th century, in which every three-beat bar contained just two dance steps. The dance, which originated in Russia and then became known in France, began with a glissade on the first beat and a chassee on beats two and three, with further complications in the following bar. It is a quick dance, therefore the steps should be short, and the knees slightly bent. Collisions were, apparently, frequent. The cover design shows an elegant young lady in her ball gown, out of doors, taking a rest from the dancing. She is holding a small envelope in her hand -- perhaps a billet doux
