Thanks for the praise and feedback!
I try to make the contrasting themes not too different so the piece still keeps a sense of unity, but perhaps toomuch so if you think it can get monotonous sometimes. I'll keep that in mind next time.
And interesting about the brass... althought I mostly notate as efficiently as possible for my VST's to do the work, at this stage its unlikely any real orchestra will play my work.
