Peter I. Tchaikovsky wrote Trois Morceaux op. 9 for piano in 1870: the third of these in D minor is titled ‘Mazurka de salon’. This is a reworked setting of a movement from his stage work ‘Dmitry the Pretender and Vasily Shuysky’, the ‘Introduction and Mazurka from the dramatic historical chronicle by Aleksandr N. Ostrovsky’ (dating from 1866/67), which the composer transcribed for piano in June 1867. John W. Slatter, who arranged other pieces for Schott publishers, set this pretty Mazurka for violin and piano – a graceful little dance movement suitable for playing as an encore or for music-making at home. Plate nos. 02418 (piano part) and 02417 (violin part), published after 1913
