This wonderful piece sounds like Romantic with strong signs of Impressionism. From a purely creative point of view, it sounds well solid! You have a very good sensitivity of harmonies and it sounds true to its style.
Although you said it's free form i still think it's more like theme and variations. (The other themes after the introduction sound loosely related to the first.) In this way it also has formal strength.
I haven't heard any of your previous compositions, but i thoroughly enjoyed this one.

Mike I'm listening to this now, and I can say right away that it is a very beautiful piece of music! I havn't got time to write a more detailed review right now, but from a first listen I'm already very impressed. It contains some fairly astonishing Chopin/Debussy-esque flourishes.
Apoligies that I havn't got time to listen to the whole thing right now (I must get some sleep!), but I certainly will tomorrow at some point! However I'll say this (I'm incredibly picky), the 2nd section (or the homophonic bit) would sound better to my ears with some kind of arpeggiation in the left hand as an accompaniment. Despite this, I'm immensely impressed, and I can't wait to hear the whole thing tomorrow! Actually, as I'm writing whilst listening the piece is getting better and better and I'm tempted to listen to all of it right now! But I must get some sleep!!!

Trying to listen to it but computer is acting up.

The score looks very good. Just a question.

In mm 13 - 36 and mm 69 - 89 are you intentionally aiming for a cross rhythmn between 6/8 in the lh and 3/4 in the rh. My reading of the score suggests these sections should be written in 6/8 - as I think you want to break up the pulse of half note to dotted quarter. If it is in 6/8, you would also have to provide a little more info (eg does the quarter in 4/4 equal the dotted quarter? etc).
