Greetings,
Though I am not much for overtly chromatic works, I think this is an excellent twenty-forth opus! I have been poisoned by early listening to Schoenberg and Sorabji, so this music reminds me of their... unique music. If the War of Tonality were to come up again, I'd stay on the tonal side. Thankfully, this music does not intrude on atonality to an excessive degree. The sevenths, diminished, and augmented chords do not resolve in a way that fits my personal tastes, but as a STYLE you have certainly found your own. There is a grandiosity mixed between Rachmaninov, Bartók, and Shostakovich .. with a tad of Prokofiev!
Whatever someone may think, or however many composers you amalgamate to explain this music, it is YOUR music. This is an excellent effort!
