Thanks for listening and sharing! Yeah, I struggled with the form quite a bit. It's my first time ever writing a piece this long. I had sketched out all of those different ideas based on the opening motive, so then "the material dictates the form"
Yes the piece is definitely tonal, but the note selection is a bit more modern. There is no tertiary harmony at all, for instance, except maybe incidental passing notes. I would describe it as "neotonal". I like tonality enough and will likely always write in that style.
