This piece conveys perfectly the 'lamentation'...reminded me a lot of Michael Nyman's work....

A delicious use of suspensions and the variations you used throughout the piece kept my interest until the end.

Some points, I find, were a bit unsuccessful. Sure, for example in m.18, the suspension doesn't create much of a problem theoretically (or, maybe, it does), but you end up with a nice d-e-f sounding together. And it shows in the sound, I feel unsuccessfully.

Also the score is in need of some attention.

Last, I agree with the previous reviewers...the ending wasn't very convincing...

Apart from these, a great work! One and a half thumb up!
