Wikipedia
Mazurka
The mazurka (Polish: mazur Polish ball dance, one of the five Polish national dances and mazurek Polish folk dance') is a Polish musical form based on stylised folk dances in triple meter, usually at a lively tempo, with character defined mostly by the prominent mazur's "strong accents unsystematically placed on the second or third beat". The mazurka, alongside the polka dance, became popular at the ballrooms and salons of Europe in the 19th century, particularly through the notable works by Frédéric Chopin. The mazurka (in Polish mazur, the same word as the mazur) and mazurek (rural dance based on the mazur) are often confused in Western literature as the same musical form.

The mazurka was popularized in the ballrooms of Europe in the 19th century and later, largely due to the influence of Frederic Chopin, who wrote more than 50 mazurkas for piano.
