The piece is introduced with a fanfare before modulating to D-flat major for a dreamy middle section.
The A-flat material is succeeded by a coda, which leads to the end of the piece.
This waltz was dedicated to Josefina von Thun-Hohenstein.
The Fryderyk Chopin Institute believes this piece was composed in 1831.
[2] This waltz in F major, a typical Grande valse brillante, was composed in 1838 and published in the same year.
