The mazurka started life in the17C as a Polish dance of rustic regional origins and is said to have borrowed its distinctive accent on the weak beat of a measure from the Polish language itself. When Raff composed the Grande Mazurka, the form endured almost exclusively as a salon item and in this piece Raff perpetuated the practice laid down by composers such as Chopin for setting the mazurka in the high art music tradition, ---Die Mazurka entstand im 17. Jahrhundert als polnischer Tanz bäuerlicher regionaler Herkunft und soll ihre markante Betonung auf dem unbetonten Schlag eines Taktes der polnischen Sprache selbst entliehen haben. Als Raff die Grande Mazurka komponierte, existierte die Form fast ausschliesslich als Salonstück und mit diesem Werk verfolgte Raff die von Komponisten wie Chopin entwickelte Praxis, der Mazurka auch einen Platz in der hohen Tradition der Kunstmusik einzuräumen.
