My Lament - elegy for piano

In the last days I was working on this little elegy for piano. I call it My Lament. It starts rather sad, has some eruptions in the middle but resolves peacefully towards the end.

It's too bad that the harmonies from the start don't make it through the rest of the piece. Also, the score is kind of tough to read, specially when the ostinato gets going later. I think also writing pedal marks would be helpful, since I'm not sure what you mean with the staccato octaves, unless you mean they have to be played literally staccato dry with no pedal?

I love the jazz style 🙂
