33/4.... the dynamics left to the performer.

Contrast the previous with loud ending.
Contrast the previous with hushed ending.
Shape the previous to mold the ending into context.

...so many choices.

Made a Liszt. Need new Handel's for Soler panel & Alkan foil. Will Faure Stein on the way to pick up Mendels' sohn. Josquin get Wolfgangs Schu with Clara. Gone Chopin, I'll be Bach

I don't know about the endings, but I just love the Chopin mazurkas. So full of live and joy. Chopin managed to put all human emotions in these small pieces. Bless his soul.
