Wanderer's Etude in D Minor

Excluding the impossible chords, this piece is for the advanced student (Going with a Henle difficulty system from 1 to 9, this would be at around a 6, which is basically a piece that requires many years of practice and is quite difficult). What I mean by impossible chords are the chords with a huge space between notes, like in measures 7, 9, 12, 13, etc (first two chords). The chords are spaced out so widely that it's impossible to play all of the notes with one hand at the same time. When making a piano composition, the general maximum chord distance is an octave (8 spaces in between, with a space being a distance from a line to a space on the staff (or vice versa)), or the distance that is seen in the first few notes of the right hand at measure 31 (those first three intervals are octaves). You could even stretch a chord to 9 spaces or even 10 spaces, but then that's when playing the chord starts becoming impossible for people (with people having different hand sizes, most people will struggle with extending their hand wide enough to play chords with 9-10 spaces in between). In measure 15, one impossible chord is the second chord of the measure (all of them in the measure are impossible though). From the bottom to the top note, there are 19 spaces, way too many for a human hand to ever play all of those notes in the chord. Just try to keep your chords within an octave to keep the piece playable. As for the left hand, it is entirely playable. As for the actual piece and how it sounds, it gets very repetitive because of how little change there is to the melody (and the notes in the left hand also make the same melody throughout the piece) and how the chord progression is almost always the same. Varying up rhythms and having more variation in the melody can spice up the piece and make the etude sound less like a practice/exercise. Overall, the piece isn't bad. I liked some of your (individual) chord progressions and how you transition from key to key (one tone to another). The motif (the arpeggio in the left hand) was interesting at first as well, but then starts to get stale because of how repetitive it becomes. I hope that these comments will help you. Just try to not be too repetitive and try not to use chords that are more than an octave (8 spaces). *Also, pedal does help a lot in smoothing out a piece, so you can try experimenting with that :)
