88 Keys to my Heart

I had a go at writing a solo piano piece, though it would probably take two pianos for it to be 'performable'.

Let me know if you have any feedback or you spot any mistakes as my theory knowledge could use some improvement.

@ilv I appreciate the feedback and have taken note! I definitely need to work on my theory knowledge. This was an ambitious piece for my current understanding of harmony etc. To answer your question though, I didn't compose it with play-ability in mind but it would definitely require two piano's.

Sorry din't mean to send an empty message it was meant to read as follows:

I love this key, in fact I've used this key many times on different occasions for I believe it is the darkest. 

I can tell you put a lot of feeling into this just by judging how raw it is (which is always a good thing in my book.) 

I think this piece demonstrates how well you know of theory actually. In my opinion, every note and chord progression are well meshed together and nothing seems out of place. However, as a fellow musician and one whom highly enjoyed listening to this, I must recommend that you attempt to add in more notes and try out various forms. Not only would that increase the vision you have set in mind when writing, but will also bring out more emotion that seem to be locked within you. 

Great job brother, and be sure to post more!

I liked  it the slow build up from the A section to the more aggressive sounding B section. The only recommendation is to create some variety in the notes, especially the bass. Perhaps an ostinato style, or something of that likeness -- since it can get a tad repetitive. As far as harmony goes, I really recommend just going with what you feel sounds good, and don't focus too much on the I-IV-V-I aspect. It helps you get out of your comfort zone, and really explore your personality as a composer. Overall, nice work. 

Thanks!

I appreciate all the feedback and advice!

I've taken note and I'll definitely try and work on more variety in my following pieces, that seems to be a prominent suggestion!

Thanks again!
