I think you have a good basis for this piece and play it musically very well. Tempo needs to be increased so that the musical ideas make more sense as a whole, here is a speed up of your recording and it sounds quite impressive then.

hehe, I like that too, but personally I think my tempo is fine..
it takes a Richter to pull it off at that speed
I don't have the technique to play it like that, but if anybody thinks they can play this piece at that tempo, be my guest ;)

Looking back at this I take my previous post back. Guess I got a little annoyed by that sped up version, because I worked so hard on the piece.
More than half a year later I do play it a bit faster and different in places. And you are right, it's more coherent that way.
Also, there is never a final version..that was more like.. 'i'm done with it for now'. :)
