Mazurkas, op. 7

The Mazurkas, Op. 7 are a set of five mazurkas by Frédéric Chopin. The mazurkas were mostly written in 1830–1831 and were published in 1832 by Maurice Schlesinger. This is the only set of Chopin's mazurkas that contains five pieces (Jan Ekier's urtext edition places No. 5 as the fifth mazurka in Op. 6); all the composer's other published sets consist of either three or four mazurkas each. It is dedicated to Paul Emile Johns, a German–American pianist from New Orleans who met Chopin in 1832 in Paris.
