Why wasn't the waltz a waltz?


At the ball, when they announced the king and queen waltz, the song was not a waltz. There are so many beautiful and romantic waltzes, both old and contemporary. Why would they announce a waltz and then not play a waltz?

The writers obviously didn't know the strictest definition of a waltz (a smooth, closed-position ballroom dance in 3/4 time).
