This is the final music posting – at least for a while. I have managed to catch up on the music postings and equilibrium is restored in my life! Hopefully the stories will return tomorrow if I can think of one!
Here are a couple of mazurkas. A mazurka is a Polish dance in triple meter, fairly lively, with the accent on the second or third beat.
The most famous mazurkas are Chopin’s – at least until now!
Mazurka 1 – audio HERE; sheet music HERE

Move over Chopin, there’s a new kid in town.

These were very beautiful Bruce. I enjoyed both, but 2 had this sadness running through it that I absolutely loved.

Thanks Noelle – I trust you didn’t spill your morning coffee while dancing a mazurka.

I really like the first one…it’s busy and it moves…always climbing.
The second one as someone said…is more melancholy

I’m not sure which one I prefer – I spose it depends on ones mood.

That is music in general I guess. My favorite Beatles song changes…
