Varsovienne

Mazurka · 3/4 · G major

The Varsovienne is a traditional 3/4-time dance tune that originated in the mid-nineteenth century, blending elements of the mazurka and the polka. Because its exact historical roots and original composer remain uncertain, the melody is best defined by its lively, graceful triple meter and buoyant character in G major. This enduring tune is typically played with a distinctive dotted rhythm that once accompanied popular nineteenth-century social ballroom dances across Europe and North America.
