Oboehazzard,

This piece is reminiscent of the late works of Nerschmitzner, especially during his damper phase. I was especially impressed with the dark cello work during the second minute.. Around 1:17 I almost cried. It was beautiful. wow. If I had to present any constructive criticism, I'd just say that you should try and use more minor ninths near the conclusion. It would be really effective, I think.

That said, I think you could probably do more to develop that first theme.
um, Caltech, are you on crack? He clearly inverted the theme like nine times and presented it more creatively than any of YOUR stuff. Just because you're jealous doesn't mean you have to go around crapping on everyone else's pieces.
