      Judging by this you're not yet at the level required for such an undertaking. There is virtually no development of themes and the structure of this piece, with that almost random virtuosic intermission that then is taken nowhere, and not even a proper coda, isn't coherent. Also, it lacks the sort of rich harmonic progressions that Chopin would use, with lots of altered 9th chords and so on.
      One should only consider composing a work in sonata form if one has the basics sorted out and can write decent quality works of a smaller size and scope, like a Mazurka, nocturne or waltz with 2 contrasting segments and if one knows how to develop musical ideas and to create advanced harmonic cadenzas.
      Don't give up though, the start is there, you just need to persevere, fix your shortcomings, build on what is good but isn't being taken to its full potential (like the thematic idea in this piece), and try checking out '500 Cadenzen in sämmtlichen Dur- und Moll-Tonhöhen' by Endre Zsasskovsky on IMSLP. This work was written for organists to improvise upon but is also great inspiration for compositions in 19th century style.

    The Etudes were meant to be 'beautiful' concert pieces but also to train a particular technical difficulty. In this case, this only has the first thing so you could call it a prelude or a short piece. On the other hand I would like to know why you say it is in the style of Chopin and not on any other composer style.

    • @Imakemusicandstuff333
      @Imakemusicandstuff333  หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Etude means exercise that's correct. Some exercises are for beginners, Some for ameturs and some for proffesionals, in this case I chose ameturs and wanted it to practice left hand broken chords to make it more accessible to the general public. But this could just as well be considered a prelude

    It's amazing that no matter how much knowledge one has about a given composer, like those you play happy birthday in various composers styles, can never ever really capture it. The composer's soul can not be regenerate.

    • @Imakemusicandstuff333
      @Imakemusicandstuff333  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It truly is amazing, so that’s why even though it’s inspired by Chopin I’m not even going to try to be exactly like Chopin. But Chopin once said he tried to capture the experience of the human soul so that’s the same essence I was trying to capture. Hope you enjoyed this short little piece of mine :)

    Thanks for sharing your work with us. From an emotional standpoint, I find the jump from a peaceful reflective emotional space, to a highly energetic almost frenetic one, and then back to a peaceful space to be a bit immature emotionally (I say this without intent to insult). I have never personally met someone who goes between these emotional states abruptly like this. I have seen them portrayed in movies though as psychologically unstable people. If this really does represent experiences you have than that would change how I thought about this. If you were going for portraying emotional depth though, maybe a longer transition the the energetic bits so it's less abrupt? Just my experience, but thank you again for sharing.

    hi, just giving you some ideas, even so it s really cool, maybe you can add some chromatics games, going right hand to left hand. It could looks good. And in my opinion this is more like a prelude instead of an etude.

    It does sound like a Chopin etude with those distinctive rolling sounds. Truly exquisite, sounds more meditative in style than Chopin's singing and rushing style. But it's something you should perform in public all the time to make it well known. Why not go to Warsaw and perform it at the Chopin competition?

    This is certainly not like Chopin. Chopin was highly reflected, soul searching, this lacks ornamentation and a flourishing melodic style. You were better of just saying it’s your own piece. It’s not Chopin.
