Keyboard Concerto G minor Mov. 1 start

very nice. Which mode did you use at 0:14, 0:56?

Nice.  I would suggest you spend longer establishing the key (slower a perfect cadence) before that first cycle of fifths if you want it to sound stylistically baroque.  The cycle of 5ths is more likely to be transition material that eventually lands back on the tonic for the return of the theme/keyboard entry.  The keyboard melody starts with some nice horn(?) interjections between phrases- that's a nice feature and you could develop it more (the horn, or whatever, then plays on the beat and doesn't add so much as it was before).  It would be nice if the falling fragments in the keyboard were 'answered' by maybe rising fragments in the horn (I'm not sure if that's well communicated, sorry if not).

Nice! I ll be happy to hear the next movements and having a look at the score

Thanks for the reply this is the helpful information i'm looking for, I  will make changes as I understand them. 

thanks for reply posting second movement now

It's nice and melodic, not too lengthy, and a good exercise (in my opinion) to explore the circle of fifths. In terms of it being "better," I would experiment with giving instruments different voices rather than doubling (i.e., more than one instrument playing the same line of music, either in unison or at an octave), and provide the bass with more contrapuntal or at least moving parts, rather than repeated eighth notes. But not to worry! These things happen over time, and the more you compose and get feedback the better you get.

Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to further installments of this work.
