A waltz believed to have been composed between 1827 and 1830, it was published in 1902, after the turn of the 20th century. It was inscribed in the album of Emilia Elsner, daughter of Józef Elsner, Chopin's teacher at the Warsaw Conservatory.
Although it is marked as a trio in the middle section, making it a waltz in ternary form, the trio is very short, only 8 measures, which leads some to consider it a rondo form. The variety of chords in the left hand is relatively limited. However, the right hand, played above it, is rich in notes beyond those forming the left-hand chords, and the range of the right hand in each measure is often relatively wide, spanning an octave. This results in a waltz that, despite its simplicity, possesses an elegant grace.
