Erich Wolfgang Korngold gave this waltz to his wife Luzi who was a Chopin lover as a present on her 46th birthday in 1949. Since Luzi was a brilliant expert on Chopin's oeuvre, her husband not only imitated his musical style, but also named him as author by adding 'op. posth.'. The concise form and transparent texture in the piano setting, however, reveal the personal style of the actual creator after just a few notes. The first public performance of the waltz was not given until in 1995.
