Thank you so much for your feedback! It is so greatly appreciated, and has brought to light so many obvious things that I just haven't paid attention to it seems! Everything you say makes complete sense, and will definitely help me a lot for the exam!!! Thank you so much, and I'll be working on all these points!

Here is my A level composition. I'm doing it roughly in the style of Chopin, but the overall style is just trying to be romantic. The structure is ABA, and the B theme is highly similar to the A theme. Things the exam board focus on are: 'Motivic development, form and structure, harmony, and texture. The time limit is 2 minutes 30, so I'll probably just play some parts quicker next time. Any feedback would be appreciated!Elegy in G#m.pdfWhatsApp Audio 2026-03-31 at 16.37.38.mp3

Choir Intro.pdf Choir Intro.mp3 Attached is the score and audio recording of the first few bars of a symphony that I've been working on. I'd just like some feedback as to whether it sounds like something out of the romantic period - that's the style that I'd like to emulate the most. I love Rachmaninoff, Mahler, Wagner, Tchaikovsky, all the greats, Mahler particularly standing out for me. I've made no lyrics to the piece, but it will follow a sombre, relating to death, and resistance against death kind of mood. The opening melody, characterized by the rising sixth, falling seventh, then back up a semitone to the dominant, is the main theme, and is repeated throughout the symphony. I'm just looking for any kind of feedback on how I can make this more classical.
