When being critical it is best for all if you can be specific, otherwise your comments are not constructive. What about this piece do you not like?

I enjoyed the piece for what it is, it is not a serious composition. Rather it is a well crafted pastiche, with some runs thrown in that probably cannot be performed by a human player. I'd be interested in seeing the score.

This sounds like it could be playable (though difficult) if scored for two pianos. It's great fun, and could serve as a very effective encore piece in a two-piano recital. I'd have to see the score, but I imagine some of those tremolos would have to be reworked to be made playable.
