The Polish dance The Mazurek, commonly known a The Mazurka, is referenced here in the title, and played as background music, though the setting for the short is more central European in nature.
The colorful stencil details shown here on furniture and the chalet interior were a feature of many rural European villages of the time.
A made up bucolic Central-Eastern European country is shown here, as is an inference to a mad experimenting scientist (who apparently owns the very latest model of water coolers). Both were popular plot elements in films of the era.
The classical music score was likely a nod to similar offerings by rival studios at the time.
