Woah! That's a really cool piece! Very atmospheric and quite mysterious. I like it a lot.

However, I would have to disagree with you on development. While yes, it could have used quite a bit more, I could detect a couple of motifs running throughout the piece, mostly involving semitones and tones. For example, the horn motif in bar 9 did recur in various forms throughout the piece. I know it's not exactly brilliant development and there were a few ideas that kind of just stood there and didn't do anything, and I will agree that not a lot happened in the slow section, but I think you're being a little too hard on yourself.

Anyway, that's my two cents.
