Abstract. The paper aims to prove that Franz Schubert’s dances can be considered as genre and style predecessors of Viennese waltz. The researcher analyzes German folk dances (Landler), identifies their common features (tonal plane, prosodic patterns), and herein lies scientific originality of the study. The research findings are as follows: the author shows that Schubert’s tripartite dances are characterized by cyclicity, which allows considering them the direct predecessors of Viennese waltz.
