I liked this piece in spite of the tuning issues with the ensemble. Even though there are a lot of Phillip Glass fingerprints in it , it manages not to sound like a takeoff. I thought you made the minimal techniques part of your own voice which is difficult to do, and combine it with some interesting music ideas.
My only reservation about this piece was the tempo which I felt was a bit slow or a bit the same throughout. Maybe this was the conductor or the limits of the performers but I thought it could be played a bit faster overall to give it a little more punch. Even of pinch isn't what you are aiming at I found the tempo started to get a bit sleepy by the end of the piece.
