If you move this to the Audition Room, you may get more responses.

Dang girl!
Good technique and very good sense of timing. I think your ability to separate your two hands is an ability I admire most in pianist. Good choice in music to play. Bravo....

Musically, Jimbo

Pretty good playing. She needs to release her right wrist a little more - it's stiff, and that is leading to unevenness in the runs due to having to make awkward finger movements to get to the right keys.
Instrumentalists are all wannabe singers. Discuss.

Why was this moved to Performance?

Anyway, I think she needs a bit more drama. It's too polished, in a way. But she's what, 10 or 12?
She'll get there. Try to really work on big dramatic sound. Like the impromptu - it was good, but it sounded like someone telling about something terrible, without knowing how. I am no teacher, so I don't know how to develop that.. maybe exaggerate it?

Well, she's obviously got talent. Have she listened to this, herself? Does she listen to any classical music?

Nice. Great technique. More emphasis on dynamics might make this even better.
