Poem for Orchestra

Hi everyone,

I recently completed a draft of a short symphonic poem, after a long period of writer's block and not writing anything. I haven't put all the finishing touches on my scores (divisi, part divisions, crescendos are all lowk messed up etc.), but I would really appreciate feedback/suggestions relating to development and harmony. I'd also appreciate knowing what images, if any, it conjures up for you as you listen to it (I'd like to figure out a more evocative title).

Thank you for your time :D!

Hi, A Ko, listening to it, I felt it sounded a lot like a movie soundtrack.
It’s a piece with a strong sense of storytelling. I can’t express it very well, but I imagined a medieval warrior returning home from war. It might be cliché, though.
Up until 3:30, they are taking a detour, passing through peaceful meadows and areas with somewhat mysterious trees.
Around 2:45, there’s a sign that they are getting closer to home.
Then at 3:10, their hometown finally comes into view from an open landscape, and shortly after, they return to the brick-paved streets of the medieval town with their comrades.
At 3:32, the local townsfolk are incredibly overjoyed.
At 3:52, the warrior spots their children and family among the crowd, and after that, the credits roll.
I'm starting to confuse myself with what I'm saying...
This kind of thing is difficult for me since I don't have synesthesia, so please just take it with a grain of salt as one person's perspective.

On the other hand, I feel like a title with more movement would suit this piece better rather than just "Poem for orchestra", though words related to a "journey" might be a bit too boring.
Overall, I think this piece is going to turn out wonderful. Good luck with your piece!

Best,

Lithl.
