10 Variations on a Gypsy Theme for Clarinet Quartet

I found this piece in an old notebook.  I had originally scored it for 2 Clarinets and an Oboe and Bassoon.  But after checking the Bass Clarinet range and finding that it had the same range as Bassoon, I rearranged it for Clarinet Quartet and finished it.  The variations are as follows:

0:40 - I - Stack
1:18 - II - Leapfrog
1:54 - III - Siciliana
2:51 - IV - Lilt
3:38 - V - Waltz
4:39 - VI - Lilt 2
5:12 - VII - Scherzo
6:07 - VIII - Fugue
6:50 - IX - Synthesis
7:17 - X - Coda

I've been told that the piece is a bit monotonous (I guess that's always a problem to contend with in variations pieces - making the variations different enough from each other to sustain interest).  But let me know what you think!  I welcome any of your suggestions, comments, critiques or observations.  Thanks for listening!

It's a fun theme, and I think you do a good job at keeping things interesting despite working with just one theme. The first variation is FIRE. Your other variations leading to the fugue are good, but as other people have said, there's a lot of repetition. But you know what, that's ok because it led you to writing the fugue variation. And the fugue is by far the most powerful writing of this piece, which makes the whole darn thing worth listening to. In fact, the fugue with your last variation + coda make the last 2 minutes or so incredibly powerful.
