Recording by Ashkenazy
One thing that was instantly apparent about this mazurka was that there were a lot of ornamentations used in it, specifically mordents, trills, grace notes, and the like. I especially liked how playful and thoughtful it was for Chopin to include a left hand solo about three-fourths of the way through the piece. The ending is surprising: it seems to be fading away until all of sudden an accented note surprises you and it ends with a bang!
