Okay.  I can critique this one from my limited knowledge and whatnot.  I play it slower and with a little more dynamics.  The piece is full of crescendos and vice versa and it could have used a little more of that, in my opinion.   But my hat's off to you for learning all of these and playing them well.

Charming overall. I play the prelude a bit more slowly and with more changes in dynamics but there are so many thousands of interpretations of this that I certainly can't fault your take on it.  For the fugue it felt like you sped up about a third of the way through.  I voice some of the passages differently but again I think your interpretation works well and I thank you for sharing it with us.

I like your pace on the prelude. One criticism is that you have too many of what I call clang-clang bars (where both upper notes are emphasised, changing the flow from the other bars).  They're a bugger to weed out, though.

Nicely done on the fugue.  It needs a bit more practice to make it flow, and don't be scared of legato.

Overall, quite commendable.
