Re: Group 5
@David H. A. Fitch for Op24 nr2, I suggest looking at accents as opportunity for the whole chord to resonate (this is especially true of 1:09-1:20 in your recording).…

Re: Group 1
@Yohan Georgekutty mazurkas that don’t require octaves are rare, but op6 nr4 in e flat minor would work if you leave out a repeated 8ve or two in the middle section. Same with op63 nr2 in f minor.

Re: Group 1
@Michael Dunning amazing piece of music. I recommend listening to others in c-sharp minor (op6 nr2, op63 nr3) to get an idea of how Chopin uses this key signature. Can’t wait to hear you play it!

Re: Group 1
@Paula Alizo what a beautiful choice, Chopin uses wonderful chromatic moments like flute playing at the cadences of op17 nr2. Listen to Ewa Poblocka’s recording; it’s gorgeous. Welcome back to piano!
