The Op. 67 mazurkas by Frédéric Chopin are four mazurkas composed between 1835 and 1849 and posthumously published in 1855. A typical performance of all lasts around seven minutes.[1] They comprise:

  • Mazurka in G major, Op. 67, No. 1 (1835)[2]
  • Mazurka in G minor, Op. 67, No. 2 (1849, often regarded as one of Chopin's last compositions, along with the Mazurka in F minor, Op. 68, No. 4, and composed in the last year of Chopin's life]
  • Mazurka in C major, Op. 67, No. 3 (1835)
  • Mazurka in A minor, Op. 67, No. 4 (1846, one of Chopin's more popular mazurkas)
