Series A. Works published during Chopin`s lifetime. Volume IV.
Chopin composed his "Mazurkas" continuously from 1825 to 1849. Inspired by Polish folk dance, Chopin's mazurkas gradually became compositions of meditative lyricism and the most personal statement of expression of the variants in musical notation, those designated ossias were marked in this way by Chopin himself or inscribed in his hand in pupils' copies.
