You probably should have posted this in the audition room.

There's a couple of places where your timing seems to get a bit off track. Nothing major, but keep an eye on it.

The big thing, though, is that you need to make much much more of the dynamic contrasts in this piece. It's too mp-mf.  Let yourself go!  Spend several run throughs going completely over the top, and then keep some of that. 

Two different but good places to get some ideas:
