Originally titled Tanzmusik, this Austrian tunefest is the story of Viennese composer Mario "Max" D'Almeida (Hermann Thimig). After enjoying only a modest success in his own country, Max moves to America, where he achieves fame and fortune as a jazz pianist. New York socialite Gina Harding (Liane Hald) falls madly in love with Max, following him all the way back to Vienna -- while being followed in turn by her jilted sweetheart Bob Crawler (George Alexander). Eventually, Max and Gina are married, but it doesn't take long for both of them to realize they're totally unsuited for each other, thereby assuring a happy ending for Gina's ex-beau Bob and Max's new-found love Hedi Baumann (Gusti Huber). It was reported at the time that the ocean-liner set seen in Dance Music was the largest of its kind ever constructed on an Austrian soundstage. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
