New Style Of Party Part 16 | Japanese

Short, clearly identified dance selections are the defining feature of New Style Of Party Part 16. The NP-16 catalogue describes Columbia Ballroom Orchestra performances edited to around two minutes while retaining each introduction and ending. The individual listed times vary, so the collection should be understood as a short-form party programme rather than thirty-five tracks of identical length.

Its opening sequence alternates Waltz, Rumba, Tango and Samba through Changing Partners, The Shadow Of Your Smile, Two Guitars and Moliendo Cafe. Danny Boy introduces Slow Foxtrot, while later selections include Hello Dolly and Take The A Train for Quickstep, Bad Boy and You Are My Sunshine for Jive, and Eat You Up for Cha Cha Cha. Cherry Blossom Time closes the programme as Viennese Waltz.

This mixture lets a teacher or social-dance organiser choose several rhythms from one collection without relying on a song title to guess its dance category. The compact edits are particularly relevant when planning shorter dance turns or changing partners between selections. All thirty-five entries appear below in their original order, preserving the Japanese titles, available English references, numerical tempo figures and source playing times. The programme is instrumental; the Japanese catalogue language does not imply Japanese vocals.
