hey this is my first real recording of this piece, and I have only recently learned it. Would love any feedback on ways I could improve. Thanks for listening!

It sounds good.

If I ever learned this piece I would try to make the right hand louder than the left and also try to play faster/smoother than what you have in your recording.

I agree, have the left hand have its moments but have the right hand shine out in a more obvious way. Over all a good performance! Well done David!

The speed I wasnt too worried about, just so long as you make it all interesting. I would suggest speeding up just a little bit. But otherwise it is sounding really good
Just here to lurk and cringe at my old posts now.

Good, but make it a little more "flowing" and add some rubato. Also, don't forget to put some emotion into the piece you're currently playing. Try to play a bit neater.
