En 1942, Ignacy Jan Paderewski (1860-1941), le grand pianiste polonais et le compositeur (et en 1919 premier ministre de la Pologne pour un an), a été honoré à titre posthume avec une édition de luxe pour laquelle beaucoup de ses amis et les élèves, comme Béla Bartók, Darius Milhaud, Bohuslav Martinu ou Jaromír Weinberger, spécialement composée de pièces pour piano. L'édition limitée ensuite publiée par Boosey and Hawkes à New York a été épuisé depuis longtemps et est maintenant nouvellement imprimée pour marquer le 150e anniversaire de Paderewski en 2010. / Piano

Edition : Jan Ekier Paweł Kamiński Chopin composed his ''Mazurkas'' continuously from 1825 to 1849. The half-utilitarian genre was a point of departure, gradually becoming a form of meditative lyricism - the most personal statement of expression. Chopin's ''Mazurkas'' present a number of specific performance problems resulting from such causes as the diversity of individual mazurkas, their collection in opus groups by Chopin and his drawing inspiration from dance forms of Polish folk music. Volume No. 4 contains 43 mazurkas. Of the variants in musical notation, those designated ''ossia'' were marked in this way by Chopin himself or inscribed in his hand in pupils' copies, while those without this indication result from textual divergences in authentic copies or from difficulties in reading the text in an unambiguous way. - Mazurka in F sharp minor Op. 6 No. 1 - Mazurka in C sharp minor Op. 6 No. 2 - Mazurka in E major Op. 6 No. 3 - Mazurka in E flat minor Op. 6 No. 4 - Mazurka in C major Op. 6 No. 5 - Mazurka in B flat major Op. 7 No. 1 - Mazurka in A minor Op. 7 No. 2 - Mazurka in F minor Op. 7 No. 3 - Mazurka in A flat major Op. 7 No. 4 - Mazurka in B flat major Op. 17 No. 1 - Mazurka in E minor Op. 17 No. 2 - Mazurka in A flat major Op. 17 No. 3 - Mazurka in A minor Op. 17 No. 4 - Mazurka in G minor Op. 24 No. 1 - Mazurka in C major Op. 24 No. 2 - Mazurka in A flat major Op. 24 No. 3 - Mazurka in B flat minor Op. 24 No. 4 - Mazurka in C minor Op. 30 No. 1 - Mazurka in B minor Op. 30 No. 2 - Mazurka in D flat major Op. 30 No. 3 - Mazurka in C sharp minor Op. 30 No. 4 - Mazurka in G sharp minor Op. 33 No. 1 - Mazurka in C major Op. 33 No. 2 - Mazurka in D major Op. 33 No. 3 - Mazurka in B minor Op. 33 No. 4 - Mazurka in E minor Op. 41 No. 1 - Mazurka in B major Op. 41 No. 2 - Mazurka in A flat major Op. 41 No. 3 - Mazurka in C sharp minor Op. 41 No. 4 - Mazurka in A minor Dbop. 42A - Mazurka in A minor Dbop. 42B - Mazurka in G major Op. 50 No. 1 - Mazurka in A flat major Op. 50 No. 2 - Mazurka in C sharp minor Op. 50 No. 3 - Mazurka in B major Op. 56 No. 1 - Mazurka in C major Op. 56 No. 2 - Mazurka in C minor Op. 56 No. 3 - Mazurka in A minor Op. 59 No. 1 - Mazurka in A flat major Op. 59 No. 2 - Mazurka in F sharp minor Op. 59 No. 3 - Mazurka in B major Op. 63 No. 1 - Mazurka in C sharp minor Op. 63 No. 3
