Mazurkas (Chopin)

Movements

Mazurka Op. 62 No 2, Mazurka Op. 7 No 4, Mazurka Op. 6 No 2

Notes

Op. 62 No 2: The piece demonstrates Chopin’s mastery of lyricism, along with subtle nuances in the inner voices

Op. 7 No 4: This was originally composed in 1824 when Chopin was 14 and is believed to be the first mazurka he ever wrote.

Op. 6 No 2: This is quite an outwardly dance-like piece, with a triple meter and bass line characteristic of a waltz.
