I listened to this piece a few days ago, I still have to give my opinion on it, it seemed to me that especially in the finale there are some interesting moments, but I must listen to it again.

Certainly a piece that is not easy to assimilate, a piece for which greater awareness and an ability to understand its development, which cannot be bypassed, are necessary.

I do not hide my (current) difficulty in understanding a composition of this type, especially because I feel the need for less complex points of reference; this depends on the fact that personally, although I do not 100% prefer tonal music or simple pieces, but also complex compositions, I feel that during this period the need is directed elsewhere.

The ending, quite indefinite, I see it as good because it is something I share, and there is probably a motivation behind this choice.

The part at 1:33" works well; it seems to be going in a certain direction but instead remains suspended, which is an aspect that does not provide that "security" one seeks when listening to a piece, and it does not make it predictable.

The part from 2:42" to 4:20" is particularly intense.

I am interested in knowing how it proceeds on a compositional level; it is my own personal curiosity, and it has much to do with the lack of certainties and points of reference when I write, in the sense that not having full mastery—but not even intermediate, I think—I start with good intentions only to favor writing by letting myself be guided more by personal taste than by a pre-established harmonic scheme.
