THE DEVELOPMENT OF POLONEZE AND THE EXAMINATION OF FREDERIC CHOPIN'S G MINOR AND B BEMOL MAJOR POLONESES

Summary/Abstract: National dances are one of the most important elements of Polish culture. There are five dances that reflect Polish culture with their dance movements and musical forms. These; Polonez, Mazurka, Krakowiak, Oberek and Kujawiak. The purpose of researching the Polonaise musical form is to examine the structure, development and factors in the emergence of one of the most important folk dances representing Polish culture. This dance, which often finds a place in Polish national culture, has become a center of attention for foreigners over time. Researching some of the events and processes experienced by a local dance in its process of becoming international is a part of this study. In addition, the changing functions of dance, its identity in the face of political events and the external conditions determined by social processes are discussed. Polonaise is a group dance with a serious but at the same time cheerful character. This dance, which was initially popular among the public, became a dance performed especially at wedding ceremonies. In the second half of the sixteenth century and the beginning of the seventeenth century, he found a place in aristocratic circles and was very popular among the Polish nobility. In the royal court, dancing was performed as a ceremonial function. The genre, which existed between 1700 and 1850, was shaped both in name and form on three main basic influences and reached a structurally important place. The first is the eighteenthcentury Polonaise developed by German composers, the second is developed by Polish composers of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, and the third includes the Polonaises of nineteenth-century composers such as Field, Beethoven, Liszt, and Chopin. It is hoped that by considering each of the definitions, a more comprehensive understanding of the Polonaise genre and its history will be achieved.
