Inferno and Paradiso (WIP) feedback

I created most of this in 5-6 days(more with revisions). I just started composing about 5 months ago and I don't play any instruments(surely telling). Most of the music I just heard in my head. about one melody I took on accident from Ave Maria(might be more but I just started listening to classical music so idk). There are two repetitions of the inferno part(I probably wont do these type of repetitions again) for "clarity". A good chunk of the piece is likely unplayable but I can't tell you what is and what is not because I don't even play any instruments yet. There are also too many markings on the first playing of the inferno I have to admit. I'm also a complete noob when it comes to harmony which I will improve over time. My primary influences are Mahler(I so far listened to his 2nd and 8th symphonies) and Havergal Brian(I listened to his gothic symphony) and I was influenced by the climax of Mahler's 2nd to finish my piece. I will be receiving piano and music theory lessons soon. The finale is probably impossible for the singers because of the fact that it is fff even though there is breath markers wedged in between the notes. It has 45,000 notes in total, probably mostly from the harmony lacking climax of Paradiso. It is also 30 minutes long so it's totally fair if you don't want to listen to it. Especially if it breaks all the rules and may be ear torture. Thanks for reading all this(if you did) and I would like some feedback afterwards.
