Ges-Dur
The Waltz Op. 70, No. 1, in G-flat major was composed in 1832. It is written in the "brilliant style". According to Jeffrey Kallberg, "the unpublished waltzes also capture the joyfulness and glitter of the dance hall and salon, as we can hear in the waltzes in E major, A-flat major (Chopin's only waltz notated in three-eighth metre), and, especially, in G-flat major, Op. 70, No 1."
