Presenters: Jane Knox, Host and Marjan Kiepura, Pianist
Frederic Chopin’s mazurkas which are a dance form with special rhythms and accents, would become the most extensive of all of Frederic Chopin’s genre. Although not intended for dancing, Chopin composed 58 of these wondrous concerts pieces for the piano. Composed from the beginning of his life to the end of his life - the mazurkas would represent his most personal side. As publishers referred to them as “Souvenir de La Pologne” these gems would create the Polishness that we hear in his music.
