The mp3 player works for me for some reason ... ???  I liked the dynamic range and the various contrasting sections you created - also some beautiful use of dissonances!  The only thing that I think didn't gel with the rest of the piece is the somewhat random sounding pizzicato parts in the violins that seemed like they belonged in a different piece.  The melody at 4:10 to 4:20 sounds like it quotes from a famous French symphony but I forget the composer.  It's not really that big a deal - it doesn't quote the whole melody - only the very beginning fragment.  Towards the end the tutti pizzicato section fits better with the piece than the pizzicatos in the beginning imo.  Maybe you meant to introduce them gradually and have them culminate at that point?  I liked the long drawn out ending.  Nice job!
