music suggestions please

Hi - I'm looking for music for a new bronze-level freeskate. I am looking for a waltz, but something that is not too 'old-fashioned' sounding. So, a modern waltz. Any ideas? Since it's freestyle, no vocals please.

How about Waltz 2 from Jazz Suite by Shostakovich? It was used by one of the US men last year (I can't remember who) . I liked it a lot and actually made a cut for myself, but wasn't comfortable with a waltz tempo so I didn't use it.

I quite like Mahoney's Debut from Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium. I actually really want to skate to it, but I don't think it really fits my skating style at this point. Maybe someday I'll be soft and pretty enough

The main theme from "Dr. Zhivago" is a waltz. In fact, it's what I used for my Bronze test program!
