Mazurka no.1 - Op.6 no.1: F#-minor

Recording by Ashkenazy

The thing that really makes this mazurka is the catchy, unusual rhythm. The rhythm in this particular piece is as important, if not more important than the melody. Another thing that I noticed was that Chopin used a lot of suspensions in this piece.
