I've learned the piece back in my second year of piano. I play the prelude much faster, but that's just my personal preference. However, I feel like you're not really comfortable with that prelude. I really liked the fugue, though you should pay attention to your phrasing because the absence of counter-subjects makes it difficult to build tension. Overall, I think you did a very good job with that pieces ;)

It sounds heavy, because you dont phrase. The prelude is basically on the beat all the time. Phrase also the left hand... It's basically the same thing in the entire prelude So just try to imagine how to phrase everything.

Thanks for sharing your wonderful performace. May be its the video mic, sounds loud and dry. I had the same problem too with my old mic. you need to refine your touch. Now you got it all.
