Polish Classical music is a genre of classical music that originated in Poland during the late 18th century. It is characterized by its use of folk elements, such as traditional Polish folk songs and dances, as well as its use of harmonic and melodic elements from the Baroque and Classical periods. It is often considered to be a bridge between the Baroque and Classical periods, and is known for its use of chromaticism, modal scales, and its emphasis on melody. Notable composers of Polish Classical music include Fryderyk Chopin, Karol Szymanowski, and Ignacy Jan Paderewski.
