Like the description says ^, the piano was not good so I messed up a few things here (not just notes).

I enjoyed your performance very much...with the exception of the audio quality, of course, although IPADs to a fairly good job surprisingly enough. 

I also know that IPADs tend to equalize the sound, so I am hesitant to offer any comments regarding dynamics.  From the recording, there appeared to be very little variation in dynamics throughout.  Again, I don't know if that was the room, the IPAD, the piano, you or what. The piano was brighter than I care for (which happened to my Yamaha, too, so I had new hammers hung).

That said, I thought you handled the piece with competence and accuracy.  I heard very few mistakes. I know that puritans will complain about the neglect of repeats, but I, like you, don't play them either (unless I screwed up and wish to rerun it).

Thank you for sharing.

Ipads? This was recorded with an HD camcorder, which is not very good in my opinion. Yes, about the mistakes, not really a big deal unless it's an important note (like the root of the chord, dissonant, etc.). Thank you for your comment!
