Hi @hw1234 @HtWinsor,

I definitely see improvement in your music! The orchestration is fuller and the harmony with more functionality! There're some imitations between piano and orchestra too! I like the section in b.11.

The modulation to relative Bb major in b.19 sounds abrupt for me. You should at least have a full close of G minor before modulating!

Ofc for a concerto the solo piano should display more technicality and be more showy and virtuosic. But this is definitely an improvement comparing to previous works. How much time do you spend on this one? You should spend more time on better works instead of 5 minutes on a sketch!

Thanks for sharing Henry!

I'll make some changes! I spent a good 30 minutes on writing this score.

Yeah better spend your time for quality than quantity! You show that you have the ability to polish your own works! What if you spend an hour or even longer for a piece of composition?
