My dance teacher has this beautiful song on his iPod that’s a waltz from the movie How the Grinch Stole Christmas, but he doesn’t know the title and artist. There’s no dialogue or lyrics in the song; it’s instrumental, but it’s one of the most gorgeous waltzes ever. It would be great if I could get an answer. Thanks!

Well since the soundtrack is all songs recorded by artists and cast members, i’m going to guess that you meant the movie score since that’s the background music with no dialogue. The composer for Grinch was James Horner, and he composed some great songs for this score. I THINK the one you’re looking for is called "A Change of the Heart," which happens toward the end of the movie and has a beautifully haunting melody since this is the part of the movie where the Grinch decideds that he likes Christmas aferall. If it ends up not being that one, try "The Shape Of Things To Come," "Memories of a Green Childhood," "The Big Heist" or "The Sleigh of Presents" which are the only other songs on the score that doesn’t have some type of talking. Hope I helped! xx
