  1. In reality music itself has, inherently, no emotion at all. It can generate emotional reactions, but this depends on the listener. The experience of music can cause things. As for the rest of what you're saying it's not something scientific at all, it's just superficial context. It doesn't matter if YOU think it's not worth listening to, someone may think the opposite and for good reason. No such thing as "hidden" "intangible" emotional factor. At least there's no reason to think there is such a thing when mostly everything about this side of music can be already explained without resorting to esoteric crap like that.

  2. All music with tones is tonal music. The phenomenon of tonal gravity can't be avoided. This is why schoenberg wrote pantonal, not atonal music.

  3. It is a great piece. I cannot add any suggestions, because others have articulated themselves so well. Keep up the good work. Not having the schooling that others here have, and only recently beginning to write for more than six instruments at a time. I sometimes like to break up a chord between the different players. say a C chord for 4 measures. Instead of having one instrument play C consequitively, another E etc. I break it up, So that one group is playing C C C E C C E C C and another instrument plays the complement, so the end result is the same instruments hitting the same # of notes, amount and coverage of notes is the same, it's just that different instruments are 'swapping' notes. I know this is a device to be used sometime. Since I work with synths mostly, I miss the chorus, flanging, effect of live instruments cause no player hits notes exactly the same as others. Keep up the good work
