Nikola,
thank you!
Variations and development are my bigger obstacles currently and your telling me that I succeeded in that is very important to me.
I agree with you, the mp3 rendering tends to sound a bit 'dry'. I hope that this will be remedied by a good performance!
About the difficulty level, my intention was it for it to be moderate level, so that it could be easily performed.
On the 'dissonant' parts (I don't find them particularly dissonant), my intention was explained to maelstromtempest previously; to surprise the listener, and maintain interest!
I'm very happy that you found that the score is ok and, yes, given the first chance, I'll get my trustworthy pianist and record it!
Cheers!
Edit; the composer you mentioned is Wim Mertens. A favorite of mine and (apparently) a heavy influence!
