| | PMC Polish Dance Sites: Mazur, Mazurka |
 | | In Polish folk music the basic pattern is derived from 8-, 7- or 6- syllable verses of the mazur folk song; the strophes are structured regularly and consist of four verses set in eight measures of the music. |  | | The melody of the anthem is of anonymous, folk origin; the text was penned by Józef Wybicki (for more information visit the PMC National Anthems Site). |  | | An important fact in the history of the mazurka is its appearance in the Polish national anthem. |

 | | Then, there is a duet with Richard Thompson on the medley of 16th Century Jewish tunes "Dance Of The Jews / Lebedik un Freylech" which leaves one wondering if there's any style of music Thompson can't play. |  | | That's one of the positive things about this CD, no matter where the material or the instruments are sourced from, the enthusiasm behind the playing just naturally makes it all come together and sound as if it all naturally belongs in the same place. |  | | As far as other instrumentation is concerned, a good example is "The Pickpocket's Mazurka / Mazurka Berserker" (again, Kirkpatrick originals) featuring Hijaz Mustapha on the Vietnamese lap steel and bouzouki, going head-to-head with the button accordion, and combining only too well. |

 | | This style of developing a musical work is consistent throughout the mazurka as I will highlight in the following section. |  | | This Schenkarian and Rétian approach to the mazurka has convinced me that Chopin strategically planned the harmonic and melodic schema of the piece. |  | | This is not to conclude, however, that the ambiguity Chopin creates simply by prefacing the piece with such a mysterious non-tonic opening is not worthy of later discussion. |
