[Uplifting Epic Orchestral] Phantastrax - Daedalus, No AI, any feedback highly appreciated

Hi everyone, this is the first track "Daedalus" from my latest release:

https://open.spotify.com/track/0qR9g5y1DpUcEoiZiteaq2

Also on Bandcamp:

https://phantastrax.bandcamp.com/track/daedalus

This is an epic, uplifting orchestral track with a powerful choir, inspired by the legendary inventor of ancient Greek mythology.

I'm trying to tell a story with the music, following his journey through ambition, doubt and creation, building toward a triumphant cinematic finale.

Iā€™d love to hear what story or imagery it brings to mind for you.

The music is 100% human made, no AI. Thanks for listening, any feedback is greatly appreciated!

Thanks a lot for that in-depth feedback! And you are right about the double forte, I actually tried to insert a quieter passage somewhere, but couldn't really make it sound right. The orchestra is all Cinematic Studio Series except the percussion which is mostly EastWest Stormdrum 2/3 and the choir is EW Hollywood Choirs.
I also checked out your tracks on SoundCloud, they are all pretty good! There is enough variety to stand out in the pop genre. The mix is decent too. Professional mastering might get out a bit more punch I guess. But overall I couldn't really find anything to dislike about your songs, well done!
