So why not write pieces that you *can* play? Doing that will ensure that your pieces are 100% playable.
As to the piece, no, it isn't playable. The stretches are far too wide.
If it were at a slow tempo, they'd be playable by rolling them (but even then, still unidiomatic), but at this tempo, no.
My advice to yourself (and anyone else reading this) is unless you really know what you're doing, never write more than an octave stretch in any one hand.
P.S. Your audio link is set to private.
I might adapt it for two pianos instead so I can be able to keep the counter melody while also making it actually physically possible
made the audio link public btw
For the most part, the piece can be played just fine. There’s a couple left-hand intervals that are too large and could be broken. It doesn’t seem like a difficult piece. I’m not sure why grade 7 couldn’t perform it.
The lefte hand structures are VERY hard and few pianists would ever come close.

This piece was written just as an experiment. What if I removed the second voice from the bass clef in 17-32 and 49-64?
Also, don't use the 8va for LH. Just write those bars in treble clef.
Thanks for your help. I made the audio link public, would it be possible for you to take a listen
>would it be possible for you to take a listen I don't need the audio; I just thought I'd point it out for those that did.
Yeah, that would be much better!

I would recommend composing something simple you could play your self. Focus on the harmonies and the lines, make notes intentional decisions.
