It's a lovely piece, a little on the short side I think. I agree with Sojar about you experimenting with more adventurous harmonies...just experiment with it, I don't think there is a fool-proof method. Practical performance question: are the soloists suppose to be section leaders, or seated separately? I think the soloists should play the tutti parts when not playing the solo stuff (it seems more practical that way, especially for the viola and cello).

This is my largest concertante piece up-to-date, my flute concerto. It is not so virtuoso for the soloist and focuses more on melodic beauty and long expressive lines. Of course it has tricks and fast energetic motion, especially in finale. But the central "heart" of the music is a long second movement with slow, almost like never-ending breath of melodic freedom.

This is the first piece I heard from you. You have a sense of music beauty and nice floating melodic lines. What I would like to hear is a piece which ventures outside pure diatonicism and establishes wider harmonic progression and more rhythmic development. Otherwise well balanced in form and duration is acceptable for what the music offers.
