I like it very much. It is leggiero and cheerful. Good work! Don't forget to fasten your seatbelt, it seems to be loose ;D. Good luck!

   Totally agree, Cheerful is exactly how to describe this piece and the way it's played.
I think it's your best recording so far,was'nt too keen on Rach or Scribin,but this is relly good.

   What i did'nt like was that painting on the wall , great idea but a window looking out onto a garden would be a lot better,LOL.

Very nice performance! I was curious how the middle (hard) part was about to go but even there you hardly made any mistakes.

Very nice!

Yes, I'm a MM student there in piano performance.

I think they recorded a video of the concert, so if/when I get it and there's no copywrite issues I'll see about posting my performances.

Fabulous!  I studied this etude years ago but could not play it at tempo like that.  I noticed a little loss of melodic flow at the beginning of the middle section (SO difficult!)--but you got it back right away, and you made it look effortless.

Congrats, and congrats on your winning the competition.  You are a marvelous pianist!

I recorded it again... IMHO it's much better now.  It's amazing what a couple months will do to a piece you're working on!
