I was just about about to post this. A very interesting discovery! It definitely feels different from Chopin's other walzes, but it does feel like Chopin overall. It reminds me of some of the mazurkas, maybe.

Yes I saw this the other day - there is some scepticism as to the authenticity of this piece, but it's certainly enjoyable and Chopinesque!

Thanks, Quijote! However, let's not start talking about Luchesi, again.

Indeed, nor the great P.D.Q.Bach!!
