Given that taken individually they are pleasant to listen to... there is now a range of your tracks in the forum sufficient to make a certain kind of discussion
Try putting them all in a row in a CD lasting about an hour... in my opinion, you would realize that they are all somewhat similar, which from a recording perspective is not a virtue... furthermore, the risk is that after a few tracks one feels the need to listen to something else.
But not because there isn't pleasantness and musicality... but too much redundancy... and not only within a single track but also among all those I have heard.
Give it some thought
Already making compositions with a broader scope and with a minimum of contrast in the sections would help to break up the incessant, even if pleasant when taken in small doses, melodic, harmonic, rhythmic repetition... etc.
You seem to be improving though, aside from some harmonic oddities... more so a lack of logic or perhaps even superfluous ones.

I prefer these "logical inconsistencies," and the piece I partially prefer is Fantasia, while remaining mindful that there is the possibility of a different development, at least ideally.
I am telling you this because there are interesting parts, and it seems that technique is not what you lack; perhaps if you had even a minimum amount of technique, and this makes me think that you could do not just something
more, but much more—I am talking about development.
You have a conception of a piece that is quite (so it seems) defined and rigid, and because of this you could sketch out, as has already been said, a piece with a broader scope of development; I think it would also change something at the rhythmic level.

The point is: in a shamelessly tonal piece, what is the sense of starting in one key, staying there for a few measures, and then heading off in a completely different direction (I am talking about quite a distance in terms of circle of fifths between the starting key (a few measures) and the rest of the piece).
It's as if you started a piece in C major, stayed there for 4 or 8 measures, and then wrote everything else in B+ ... it would have been better to give it coherence (there is no added value... I don't know if I managed to explain myself well).
There is no doubt that he has ideas and knows how to develop them briefly; perhaps it is a personal requirement of mine, but after about fifteen pieces... one that lasts barely ten minutes (even 7) I would like to hear it...

Yes, I understand what you mean.

I was thinking of the old 45-minute CDs.. practically they would be about forty tracks. Perhaps excessive.
Anyway, the ideas are very beautiful and fresh, it would just be enough to correlate them and give life to tracks lasting at least 3...'
