Mazurkas op. 6

Levy’s op. 6 is composed of two Mazurkas written in 1882 (dated by musicologist Arnaldo Senise) and published by Les fils de B. Schott (Mayence, n.d.). The second Mazurka was also published later by the Irmãos Vitale (1964). Both reflect the Chopinesque influence in his work and use rhythms characteristic of this traditional Polish dance.
 
The dedication of Mazurka op. 6 no. 1 is “à mon ami Dor L. A. Pinto”. The one from Deuxième Mazurka op. 6 no. 2 is “À mon ami Heitor B. Cordeiro”.
