I played this a few days ago. Any constructive criticism is very welcome

So, it's been about 5 days, and no responses

Just wondering, is there any particular reason this might be the case? Is it because this sort of music is not as popular on these forums? People are too unfamiliar with the piece to be comfortable commenting about the way I play it?

Any insight would be nice. If it is because of the genre, well, I guess that can't be helped. I'm currently working on Chopin's Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2 (very overdone piece I suppose, but I still love it), so hopefully that will get more critiquing when I post it.

Thanks~

Generally performances of classical repertoire recorded on acoustic instruments will get more attention here than performances of other styles recorded on digital pianos. The more you get to know the community before you post performances, the more interested members of the community will be in your work. We have many people who don't participate in the everyday life of the forums who simply post links to their work here.

I notice that your LH wrist has a habit of pointing up towards the ceiling, often after playing chords. I would caution against this, as it breaks the structure of the LH and limits the overall expressive scope of the playing.
