Incomplete "Marche Militaire"

Here's the beginning of a Marche Militaire for piano I'm writing. The harmony is simple, but there's some polyphony in it. I find that I have trouble finishing many of my pieces because I'm such an ardent perfectionist, and I destroy nearly everything I do.

There is a section of this forum for unfinished works. This thread is being moved there.

As for your piece, there are a few chords that are, while not entirely "impossible", at least very uncomfortable to play. Particularly the right hand sequence at the top of the 2nd page. I have a large hand and I found it quite inconveniant to play. If it's a very slow march, then there's no problem, the chords can be arpeggiated.

In musical criticism, when issues of craft and technical consideration are set aside, what remains is more subjective. However, until technical issues are dealt with, the subjective portion bears considerably less weight.

The larger chords would be arpeggiated, of course.
