Can you please upload notes? 

I'm sure I'd be able to help more when I have the music sheet in front of me,

and so will everyone else.

 

*BTW, the last minute of the video is silent.

There you go.

This is beautiful. Great harmonic progression, and beautiful melodic phrasing. Great work!

I love that you took something so simple: sixteenths over eighths and created a full piece out of it.  The temptation is always to do too much, and sometimes having some boundaries around your ideas helps them stay organized and clarifies their development.  Nice job!

Many thanks for your comments guys. Much appreciated.

A very charming piece. The descending bass lines give the whole prelude a strong sense of direction, the harmonic changes sustain interest. However, the double octave jumps in some bars in the bass are very demanding. (Like m. 10 and m. 30, if I counted correctly.) Some very nice cadences in there, btw!

Couldn't help liking the video on YouTube. This is great! It reminds me of Bach, of course, but also vaguely of Shostakovich's Fugue No. 7 in A Major. Both pieces have pretty static rhythmic patterns but go through some beautiful chord changes (Shostakovich's fugue is 100 percent consonant, but he somehow keeps our attention).
