KAISER WALTZ. AKA - "Kyzer Waltz." American, Waltz. USA, Missouri. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Silberberg): AABB (Beisswenger & McCann): AA'BB' (Milliner & Koken). Missouri fiddling lore has it that the tune was brought home from World War I, picked up from German sources (hence given the title "Kaiser" in Missouri) by one of the uncles of fiddler Alton Jones [Beisswenger & McCann]. Mark Wilson suspects the story is apocryphal, however, as it has little of German musical style in it and is, in fact, 'bluesy'.
