Hi jy_

I've not played the Fountain of the Acqua Paola, but I'm familiar with the piece. I enjoyed your rendition. You observe and recreate the dynamics very well. You distinguish foreground from background. Your playing is very expressive with some wonderful nuances. Also you've integrated all of the elements of the piece such that you can execute it with a unified sweep. All in all your playing is beautiful in this recording. I believe that it will serve you well in your auditions. Best of luck!
