Frédéric Chopin composed his Rondo à la mazur in F major, Op. 5, in 1826 (when he was 16 years old). It was first published in 1828, dedicated to the Countess Alexandrine de Moriolles, daughter of the Comte de Moriolles, It has been speculated that Józef Elsner's Rondos a la Mazur may have been an inspiration to Chopin (Elsner was his teacher), but Chopin's rondo does not display any visible influence from Elsner's work.
