Mazurkas

by Mily Balakirev

Composed 1861–1906
Published 1906
Works 7

Seven mazurkas spanning Balakirev's entire composing career, from the A♭ major and C♯ minor pieces of 1861 (revised 1884) to the final E♭ minor Mazurka of 1906. Deeply influenced by Chopin but saturated with Russian folk character, these are among Balakirev's most approachable works. No. 3 in B minor and No. 4 in G♭ major (both 1886) are the most frequently performed.
