short Scherzo in b minor

This is a great piece! Brahms would be so jealous and eager to play this day and night. Really!

I really like the theme and its quality of beginning as a syncopated melody. I love the key of Bm. The very use of the harmonic sequence makes so much sense. The bridge to the Dominant minor is exquisite. Chapeau! Bravo!

I actually played it a bit. I wanted to feel that pulsing force it has inside. I wanted to ride the solid machinery holding everything together. Truly enjoyed it. However on the bridge to F# minor I encountered a bit of struggle with the sustained melody on top and the octaves accompanying this great machinery. I guess you're using pedal. Anyway nothing to worry. I mentioned this bc when getting to measure 79, I think the rythmic pattern you're working with has potential to repeat once more on the Dominant chord of F#minor with a few adjustments (Try C#aug5). It acquires a bigger momentum when landing in F#minor. But overall the coda and the end are just, idk. I'm out of words. Looking forward to listening more of your work!
