In the RH there are many places in the music where a dotted rhythm occurs.  Also where a 16th leads to a long note on a strong beat.  It is between these 16th pickups and the strong beat that you sometimes give a slight pause.  Try to think more of line in the melody, as the pauses cause the melodic line to become choppy.  Push to the end of the phrase - 16th pickups should lead to the main note. 

Hint: posting this in the audition room would probably give it better attention.
Made a Liszt. Need new Handel's for Soler panel & Alkan foil. Will Faure Stein on the way to pick up Mendels' sohn. Josquin get Wolfgangs Schu with Clara. Gone Chopin, I'll be Bach
