 :o Very impressive indeed! 8)

I like it to be a bit more masculine and powerful in the raw sense...but my goodness, how could I even critic a nearly flawless delivery as this? Wow!

I´m listening it through now, and wow, you obviously did an excellent job! Didn´t listen to the whole thing, but very convincing performance, I hope you´ll upload the more recent recording. I think you have a great sense of structure and line throughout, my only complaint was that the tempos were a little bit too slow overall. One doesn´t have to play this piece like Cziffra of course...In any case, great job considering you worked on it for such a short time!

This is a great performance!  ;D You're obviously an excellent pianist, and judging by the bio from your website you have a very outstanding resumé.

you should visit her YT channel and listen to other pieces

Had just finished listening to her Liszt Sonata and her Ondine as well, definitely worth a listen.

I'm frankly impressed. A very, very nice playing. I listened to several of your Youtube videos and they are really good, having in account also that you are a very young person. I wish you the best in the future, you deserve it.
