hi, im not super learned as some others but ill try to give feedback as an audience member because it's a bit scarce here.

i think the atmosphere and the timing of the rh was compelling.

i would've loved to hear more structural clarity with clearer lines being drawn in the bass. more conviction, contrast and dynamicism too. just my middling opinion but there are times it sounds a bit hesitant and unsure where i would've loved to instead hear a driven octave accelerando into thundering chords. maybe im not sharing the same vision you have here.

the change in character of the middle section was also nice. but more contrast would be appreciated, which would also allow more freedom to add palpable nuance. it feels a bit "heres my first character, second character, and then back to first character again" and it feels a bit anticlimactic because you set up the foundational colors nicely.

the ideas you have laid out are cool. but excaberating and exaggerating them would elevate the peformance

this is just my relatively amateaur feedback. throw it all away if someone who knows more comments.
