A friend of mine once explained to me that the four most important elements of music are (in no particular order)

Dynamics
Articulations
Phrasings
Tempo

Without these, you just have notes on paper. Even if a piece sounds like you want it to sound (by use of the computer) without these, no one would be able to duplicate it in a real setting.

What you have here is a nice beginning, but now you need to start the hard work of getting the 4 Horseman of music into your pieces. Start by studying all of the scores you can get your hands on. Then start relaying that info into your own works.

Hope that helps.
