The Polonaise is a form established in the 18th century. Meaning "Polish-style," a wide variety of pieces have been designated as polonaises. Generally, it can be considered a dance. As this polonaise is also regarded as a dance, the tempo should not be excessively fast. Set a tempo that allows for the natural execution of ornaments.
Measures 1-2 are considered to correspond to measures 9-10, and measures 5-8 to measures 13-16. Consequently, the four measures of 3-4 and 11-12 do not correspond between the first and second halves. One (measures 3-4) concludes with a cadence in F major, while the other (measures 11-12) briefly evokes C major through a borrowed chord.
When comparing the first and second halves, considering elements such as the bass leaps and the number of notes, the tension increases in the latter half. Therefore, the first half should be played more subdued, and the second half should have stronger dynamics than the first, concluding with brilliance.
