Renowned as an early masterpiece, the Grand Polonaise Brillante was originally a work for piano and orchestra. While the piano part is brilliant and full of dazzling virtuosity, and the orchestral part primarily serves to amplify the sound of transitional accompaniment sections, the solo piano version has become far more common today.

The introductory Andante Spianato ('calm andante') was added in 1834. Its smooth and sweet melody is captivating.
