Another two rare Josep Wieniawski scores - unfortunately my copies from a well-known library were not particuarly good, so my thanks to Parag for making them a little more presentatable.

Leopold Lewandowski (1831–1896), known as the King of Mazurka and sometimes called the Polish Strauss composed more than 300 Polish dances and conducted the orchestra of Teatr Rozmaitości as well as a 24-member Jewish orchestra that performed public concerts in Warsaw's Saxon Garden.

Don't know if you knew this already, but some works by Josef Wieniawski have been recorded by Tomas Kamieniak on the Acte Préalable label:

As this is a first volume, looks like he'll be recording more...

I appreciate this piece. It is very interesting.
I suggest that you title this file Marsz rather than Mazur.

Tomasz is currently preparing to record a 2nd disc [and hopefully 3rd & 4th discs] for Acte Prelable............hence the Wieniawski I posted recently, which I obtained specifically for his planned recordings. The 1st CD is very enjoyable...and wonderful to hear these works from an excellent pianist.

Yes, you are right, Walter. A march is not a dance and a Mazurka is not a march.

Here comes another one, a Polonaise by Franciszek Ksawery (Xavier) Oginski (1801-1837).
Further information:

I add the little piece in two versions, because i'm not really satisfied by the black'n'white version.
