More mazurkas :D I remember analyzing no. 4 to death in music theory (and it was fun). I do have a thing for no. 1 too, though :)

Very famous! Surely you've heard them before. I know how to play them, but not well...
Due to the main theme coming back so much, attempting improv on them might be fun :)

I love & have played all of these!! They're cute and sometimes tricky. I can't pick my favorite from this opus, they're all great :)

(trying to catch up)
I really like the second one; in any case, I've heard it more often than the other two. But early Chopin is always such a delight :)

I really like the ecossaises. They are fun and fun to play :)

I like to think I'm good at writing magic fight scenes too. I should start a list of my writing niches

73 days: op. 73, Rondo in C for two pianos: www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1zT...

Haven't actually heard this one before, but it's easy to place as youthful Chopin. Brilliant and virtuosic. The coordination of the 2 pianists must be incredible, especially for a playful piece like this!

Ah, one of the Oxford textbook flock! I wave at thee from the Cambridge bandwagon

oh I am SUCH a confused time traveler

and I have realized that my favorite posts from you are the ones about nature and weather and all that; I get to be somewhere else for a bit when I read them :)
