I thought it was very good.  You have the technical equipment to play this scherzo, but I think you're using way too much rubato - slowing down.  I sort of get lost while I'm listening to it.  There are places, of course,  where you have to emphasize certain ideas.  Like the opening theme.  But all in all, I think you take too many liberties.  You lose the sense of a "scherzo".

Hey, congratulations on your performance. It held my attention throughout, with its very interesting rhythmic infliction and a dramatic pattern that makes us wait, and the roundness of each measure, emphasizing the significance of each first beat...You are very barline oriented, which I find unique, and this does a unique thing to the arrivals of the longer lines, which I don't think is wrong but indeed is interesting and makes us wait (this poor sentence will run on forever if I let it).

Ah well, this is one of my very favorite pieces, and I enjoy hearing every new perspective. It's all very inspiring.

I hope you will post much more of your work in the future.
Don't let anyone know where you tie your goat.

As others have mentioned, this is a different yet an interesting interpretation of this piece.
But your playing is very good. Congratulations.
Please continue posting your recordings.

As you have mentioned on the other thread, there is a great amount of effort in bringing up a piece to performance level or near performance level.

In this respect, Audition Room is a very valuable place to seek for ideas and suggestions about our performances, so that we can improve our playing.
