Nice job so far, you really have the notes down!

Isn't this a beautiful mazurka? One of my favorites. :) (Op. 7 No. 2)

I'd suggest thinking of the piece more as a whole, rather than note by note. I don't really know how to explain it.. but when you play a mazurka try to think out and feel the lines, try to really make them sing and move along. I guess you have to be like a minstrel singing an epic poem. ;)

Maybe you should listen to some recordings of it? I'd really suggest listening to Kapell's- his is just beautiful.

Anyway, again- nice job. And hope this helps! :)
