Lisztian toccata

hm.pdffinally got a bit of a break, composed what's probably my worst piece to date but I find it neat in some ways
I am aware a decent bit of laws has been broken when making this piece, and that it's quite near impossible in a few aspects, thank you.

Hiiiii

Firstly, this is not 'cute' lol.

I realized you definitely thought of the Rachmaninoff Moments-Musicaux for the start, that famous one Lugansky is famous for playing. (E minor one).

You also used the polonaise rhythm. Nice.

Next, this piece is overly forte-based, there is not enough quiet.

Also, bar 39 is very good. I love that progression, but liszt would do something like Sfz there, and then the run down it starts slow but then speeds up all the way to A Tempo.

Additionally, your themes and ideas are very restricted, if that's the right word, by the lack of interesting dynamics.

Moreover, as someone with perfect pitch, you can really change the ending key signature as you are in 3 sharps while i heard Bb Minor (5 flats) and G minor (2 flats)

I would say this has some potential, if you extended it and vary ideas, but for now, it is not performable, and even if it is playable and some distinction, it wouldn't be the best pianist experience.

Good luck!

Hey Tunndy,

Some feedback:

• I like the beginning: the rhythm, the darkness, really cool!

• Bars [7-10], really not my favourite section.

• I like the change of tone bar 28.

• I agree with Tristan that having forte everywhere would deserve a bit of nuance...

In general, in enjoyed it, thanks for sharing!
