Trifle for Piano in Db Major

Just a little ditty for piano... nothing serious.
Wanted to write something that was relentlessly cheerful!

It IS really cheerful for me! You may think it a trifle but it's definitely not a trifle if it's played in real life since it's quite difficult! The middle voice reminds me the school bell particularly the figure in b.1 and 2. Maybe that's a quit for a school life LoL! Of course the voice leading can prevent those parallel octaves like in b.4 but it's just a witty piece so I don't really find them bad at all! What I love most is the middle section where you use quartal and quintal harmony well and making the music playful and witty. Thanks for sharing!

I like the cheery quality, lots of brightness and playfulness with the piano writing. The stretches seem a bit difficult at times with the tempo, but definitely enjoyable. 

The arpeggio themed rhythm at b. 13 was really cool, and I like the miniature ABA vibe. 

Thanks for sharing!

Quite fresh music here. Precise scoring too.

I think my favourite part was the "mini cadenza-like passage" at M17. Not much criticism to give, I just wanted to comment on it since I enjoyed it quite a lot, it's such a nice short piece and as Vince said the structure is clear and thus the piece flows without a hassle. 

Kind regards,
Daniel–Ømicrón.
