@Doug19752533 Yeah... everyone knows that folk dances aren't artworks in their own right - thank heavens for classical composers...

"Mazurka" is genitive or accusative case of the word "mazurek" (diminutive form of "mazur").

@anyan112 its not Chopin. its Camille St. Saens. op. 21. Chopins mazurkas are highly complex, and are instrumental rather then dances. he expanded the mazurka beyond its original form while retaining its characteristics. he did the same thing with the Polonaise, Scherzo, and Etude. while these were simple basic forms before, he crafted them into almost totally new forms by expanding them way beyond what they originally were. same with the Mazurka.

@anyan112 Chopin's Mazurkas arnt for dancing. he expanded the characteristics of the mazurka into a very unique form. he took it way beyond a folk dance and turned it into a artwork, much like he did with the Etude, from a technical study in a musical setting into a concert piece
