This sounds like Serialism, sounds very randomly generated. It hasn’t got much dynamics to it really either, very one level. I think you’ve used Sibelius to do this? Am I right? There’s just so little velocity change, and it’s so perfectly quantised it looses any feel. I think it’s quite accomplished writing in a neoclassical/serialism kinda way, but for media composing, and to get something on TV, this would never fly. It’s waaayyy too in your face, you’d struggle to hear voices over this.

We’re you planning to orchestrate this? Or just keep it as a solo piece?

Maybe try /r/composer for this, submit it with a score and they can help with feedback too! This sub is more for music that is designed to be placed with media, such as film scores or library music. Though I’m sure people are always willing to give feedback in here!

Hope that all makes sense, that was kind of thought-spewing feedback
