Polonaises

Album by Fryderyk Chopin

Polonaises is a collection of piano compositions by Fryderyk Chopin, composed between 1826 and 1846. They are stylised Polish dances that combine characteristic rhythmic patterns and march-like accents with expressive pianistic writing, and they chart the evolution of Chopin's national idiom across his career while helping to solidify the polonaise as a prominent Romantic piano form.
