Easiest Chopin mazurkas?
on: January 17, 2009, 03:08:56 PM

Hi I'm new to these pieces I haven't heard them properly yet, need to buy a cd of them! Anyway what are the easiest ones to play? Roughly what level do you need to be at to play them? I wouldn't mind having a look at some to see if I could give any ago, even though I'm a beginner of 12 months and this may be out of my depth :-\.

Thanks ;)

Some of his posthumous one's aren't too demanding... try Op. 68 no. 3 or no. 4.  Or the endless one in C major from I think op. 7.  Should be the no. 5 if I remember right.
