This mazurka uses Polish folk rhythms and modes, and has a metronome mark of 132, making it one of the slower Chopin mazurkas. The Mazurka starts with a piano section, in which the central theme is stated, which revolves around oscillating triplets and heavy accents on the third beat of each bar. A second theme is then stated fortissimo, in a passage full of sforzando's and wedge accents. The original theme is then stated forte, but quickly decrescendos. These two passages end with repeats.
