Help! (Your Opinions, please)

I recently wrote a short piece for flute called 'prelude and dance' for flute. I origionaly wrote this the first movement as a very slow one, and now I am having second thoughts about the tempo. I know that a prelude dosn't exactly imply a tempo, but I still want to think about the slow-fast form. Then again, I want it to be at the best tempo for the individual movement...

Anyway, I hope that you guys can give me some advice to help resolve my indicisivness. Here are three files at Quarter note = 84, 110, and 140.

84.mid

110.mid

140.mid

The other movement is in cut time at HN = 124

Any Ideas or suggestions will be very much appreciated!

I like the 110 the best, but my second favorite would be the slow one. Maybe something between the two?

i liked the 110 version too - nice momentum.

Thanks! I ended up going for q = 104.
