Default 'jaunty' or dramatic piano or organ pieces

Hello.

I'm looking for jaunty solo piano or organ music and also dramatic solo piano or organ music.

Doesn't have to be strictly classical but I thought this was the best place to post the query.

2 'upbeat' pieces I have found so far are waltz no. 2 by Shostakovich and piano versions of 'Heart and Soul' (depending on how it's played).

I like the bouncy bass but not being well versed in music I don't know the right terminology to find similar pieces. I've been searching waltzes on YouTube but not finding anything similar.

Also any recommendations for dramatic music as mentioned above would be great as well please.

Thanks very much

Hi.

Jaunty means 'having or expressing a lively, cheerful, and self-confident manner'

Also I tried to expand on this by referring to 'upbeat' and saying I like the 'bouncy bass' in the 2 pieces mentioned.
