Nice effort. I think over time you will want it to go faster, you will want to be more liberal with the pedal, and will want to play it on a real piano. It will respond differently on a real piano, and will give a much better picture of the piece. Good job!

I agree with the comment posted above. keep up the good work. I think that you've really shown that a digital piano is capable of a very nice sound though. would it be better on a really nice acoustic? probably. but it's already quite a delight!

thanks for listening and commenting

I have added Etude Op. 2 No. 1 that I play a little longer
to be honest, the more I hear it the more I get tired of the plastic sound of the digital

I updated 8/5 with a new recording.
Some little slips in difficult second part but I'm quite happy with it.
