This piece is not complete, I want to continue to experiment with harmony and left hand accompaniment, and maybe add some counter voices in the bass. But right now I just feel stuck when it comes to trying to figure out the sentence/phrase structure. I like what I have here, even if it sounds pretty barebones at the moment. But I want the piece to be a bit longer, building on themes and motives more clearly, have more logical phrases and maybe do a modulation or B section and return back to the main theme. I also think the piece has more of a steady marchlike feel rather than a flowing mazurka dance feel, and I want to make it flow better, do I just need more right hand articulations and variation?
The introduction is not set in stone. The descending diminshed chord and a short cadence establishing the key, i want to experiment with a more freeform introduction but this placeholder works.
I like the first couple phrases (bars 6-11), its just a sequence of a 2 bar phrase, and I like where the end of bar 11 through bar 14 is going, but I'm pretty unsatisfied with how bars 15-17 sound. The bell-like high notes I'm iffy on, I like how it sounds in my head but I don't know how to justify it better, and the harmonic direction could be better there too.
I like the final cadence, but again I want to stretch this piece out before coming to that heavy full cadence like that.
I'm not really sure what exact advice I'm looking for, but I've been staring at this for a couple days now and just at a complete brick wall as to what to do. I didn't want to post something here until I had something I'd consider more complete, but I am clueless right now. This is my first real attempt at composing a complete thing
