this is a very difficult piece to pull off (from memory).  kudo's to you!  and, it's very loveable the way you play it.  some of the rhythms in the lh in the middle section seem slightly uneven to me - but it 'speaks' anyways - and that's the important thing.  amazing!

great! beauftiful sound,colors,changes of character... the only thing i would suggest to you is to think of the tempo,i would prefer it a little bit faster,then the rubatos will be more expressive. but its just a personal suggestion. i enjoyed your performance really very very much.

I agree with el nino. Sometimes it gets a liltle too lingering, just need to move along a little more...otherwise, great dynamics,great feelings, nice job bring out the melody..very nice
