Tony Evans – World Modern Ballroom Championships

World Modern Ballroom Championships by Tony Evans and His Orchestra is a 12-track ballroom music album devoted to the four classic Standard rhythms of Quickstep, Foxtrot, Waltz, and Tango. The collection is arranged in clearly defined dance groups, making it particularly convenient for structured ballroom practice, teaching, and competition-oriented training.

The album begins with three Quicksteps: Real Live Girl, People Will Say We’re in Love, and Is This Romance. These are followed by two Foxtrots, Gone with the Wind and Dancing in the Moonlight, before the program moves into its Waltz section.

Three Waltz selections—Satin Doll, Engagement Waltz, and London by Night—provide contrasting music for working on continuous movement, timing, and partnering. The album then closes with four Tango recordings: Passing Strangers, Fantasy Tango, Ricardo Tango, and What Now My Love.

The organization of the album gives dancers several consecutive tracks within each rhythm rather than constantly switching dance styles. This makes World Modern Ballroom Championships useful for focused practice sessions where dancers may want to repeat the same dance with different musical selections.

With its concentration on Standard ballroom rhythms, the album is a practical addition to a music library for ballroom dancers, teachers, studios, and competitors.
