Description:
For woodwind quintet, score 4 p. and parts. Listen to the audio sample to get an immediate impression of the sound of this arrangement.
Derived from the polka, the Polka Mazurka is a dance in its own right - graceful yet full of character. With its elegant yet confident steps, it blends cultural influences from all over Europe. Johann Strauss II composed many polka mazurkas, and the very first of the Strauss family was La Viennoise, op. 144.
