Mazurka no.14 - Op.24 no.1: G-minor

Recording by Ashkenazy

The crispness of the rhythm in this mazurka is quite fascinating. Having a sixteenth rest in between the eighth note and the sixteenth note instead of having a dotted eighth was an interesting choice that made the rhythm much more precise and crisp in the beginning melodic line.
