| Dear Tpter1,
Okay, here's what I'm getting at:
A program such as you described is not prepared for in technical way with concern geared to tongue strength and placement. It is done by doing.
Get out any number of duet books, call a buddy and find duets that are dance-like. That is, waltzes, polkas, two steps, foxtrots, and the like. It is only through this type of thing that you prepare yourself to be in the proper character.
Co you know or listen to any Fritz Kreisler encore pieces like Liebesfreud, Schon Rosmarin, or Liebesleid? Those are the utmost in Viennese gems that we need to listen to. They also happen to be waltzes.
Listen, play, listen ,play, etc.
Get busy, my friend.
