The Mazurka is a traditional Polish dance in three-time with an often erratic-seeming emphasis on the second beat. It was Chopin who made of it the vehicle for some of his most intimately ruminative and also laconic utterances; he took this dance idiom even further into a world of human expression than he did with his waltzes - and thereby set a tradition that yields these ravishingly elusive masterpieces that gently exude all Szymanowski's most subtle chromatic surprises and delights.
