Capriccio in E-flat major

I wrote a new piece between Christmas and New Year. It´s in a new style for me, and I really enjoyed to explore this different "language" . I would be very grateful to learn what you think of it, including your critical remarks.

I was influenced by one composer in particular. Can you guess who this was?

Best regards

I personally hear the influence of Debussy's Children's Corner - Golliwogs Cakewalk especially in the types of accompanimental rhythms you use and the harmonies employed there.  This was nice although I feel like you over-complicate the harmony in some parts.  Thanks for sharing!

This piece was pretty good, it has a strong personality.

Thanks a lot PaperComposer for your comments. I agree that there are some similarities when comparing the harmonics and the kind of rag-time like rhythm, which Debussy has used in his Golliwags Cakewalk. But he was actually not the composer who inspired me to write the piece. It was Nino Rota. I suppose that this was difficult to guess.

You may be right that I over-complicated some of the harmonies. I have not composed something like this before, and I agree that my writing has to improve.

 Thank you again for your valuable feedback!
