What good is a centerpiece but to add to the pomp and pride and beauty of a ceremonial occasion? The Polonaise is historically such a centerpiece for such an elegant, lavish affair. Chopin is the natural figure for the Polonaise, a stately dance for pairs, but it was known much earlier to the Baroque composers. Bach was no stranger to Polish style, as shown in this centerpiece Polonaise to the Menuet of the Brandenburg Concerto No. 1.
When Bender the robot was driftless in space with his candelabra, he realized it belonged on a piano centerpiece. It was a shame that he couldn't manage to get his Chopin working before he got too frustrated.
