Hey hottie ;)

The passage work is well played, but the melody doesn't sound enough. You have a nice color, but it just one color. You need to change it much more. The melody doesn't need this super singing tone all the time, but much more than now. Otherwise it sounds more like an etude in passage work.

I hope it makes sense

Very fine rendition.  Early on I heard parts in the LH that I've never heard before in all the times I've listened to this piece.

Hi xx,

I enjoyed hearing your rendition of this wonderful piece by Liszt. I'm OK with your balancing of the hands to emphasize melody in the foreground while keeping accompaniment more subdued in the background. I recognize too that while the melody is most often in the right hand, there are times when it shifts into the left hand, along with the occasional duet between the hands as well.  Overall I liked your articulation, dynamics, shadings, phrasing, nuances, playing the long line, peddling, and keeping everything in proper perspective.  You project it well for the listeners.  So I believe that your rendition is certainly meritorious. Thanks for sharing it with us.

David

Bravo, nicely done. Very articulate, and judicious use of pedal.
