Only one word I can say: Wow. You have a nice touch, appropriate dynamics, nice speed. I think the speed was fast enough in section B.
what piano did you record this on?
and what's the buzzing sound in the background?
anyway, I can find nothing wrong with your playing, as far as I can tell.
Funny? How? How am I funny?

What else can i say except that this famous is beautifully played!!!

May I be so bold and impertinent to "clean" the recording a bit as
the noise leak seems to interfere with the wonderful playing.
my advance apologies.... :-[

Hi Kelly,

Beautiful and thoughtful playing!  I enjoyed listening to this waltz.  And emill did a fine job in removing the buzzing as well.

What I like the most in all your performances (and in this waltz too) is the fine dynamics, the way yiou are able to master the touch: in shrt, yiou deep, stunning musicality.
Please, if yuou can, post a video or recorfing of your recital!!!
