maybe this is where either a good orchestration book, or a course in orchestration, might come in handy.
you need to "orchestrate your crescendo".
There are a couple of issues that need to be dealt with here.
1. you have a sudden shift in register in the strings (violin 1 suddenly popping in one octave higher)
2. you are adding a new timbre (woodwinds) all in one shot
3. you are REMOVING another sustained part (violas and celli) suddenly AT the junction of this change
any single one of these issues could destroy your effect... all three at once? KABOOM!

In musical criticism, when issues of craft and technical consideration are set aside, what remains is more subjective. However, until technical issues are dealt with, the subjective portion bears considerably less weight.
