Step into the sunset of a genius. Composed in 1845, the Three Mazurkas, Op. 59, represent Frederic Chopin's late style at its most refined, intellectual, and deeply poetic. By this stage in his life, the "dance" had become a mere ghost - a framework upon which Chopin draped some of the most sophisticated counterpoint and daring harmonic transitions in the history of the piano.
Unlike many of his earlier sets, Op. 59 was published without a dedication, standing alone as a pure testament to his evolving musical philosophy.
This edition is a reissue of music originally published by Polskie Wydawnictwo Muzyczne, Warsaw.
