Supa awesome! in some parts it would have sounded more magical if you added some pedal. Bravo!

Just another thing to add: I  listened to Mr Radnich's recordings. Maybe it is just the audio or the piano but I think in the beginning you can make it a little quiter. Perhaps around 1:10 the theme could be emphasized a bit more and making the accompaniment quiter. But you know this music more than me and I may be wrong.  ;D

Thanks!! Anyway I didn't use much sustain for a reason, this is a vertical piano and in my room that sustain has a lot of resonance, it would have been destroyed the song eheh. Same thing for emphasize the theme, it's really hard with that piano. Anyway thanks for the suggestion, I appreciate it a lot :)

nice! Your interpretation feels likes a music box.

I agree with the above comments, more pedalling and a little gentle on the keys to create the magical-mysterious effect.

Did you use some kind of music program to make the sound? It feels like you put the score in sibelius/finale, and just pressed the play button, and used that sound for your audio. I did a cover too (and I'm not saying that mine is better than yours) but IMO, my cover sounds more natural
