Very nice indeed, and I like the way you bring out the polyphony. My only quibble is the ending, which doesn't quite hold together = perhaps slightly less rit? Or some other solution.

For me it's to less melody. The shape of it is good, but it could be played more musically and just louder. I didn't like your arpeggio at the beginning - it's too wide (in time).
You could use more rubato, especially when you play sixteens. I also don't like your pulse - in "the second theme" you play like the metrum is based on eight instead of crotchet (I think it's the harderst thing in this piece).

Your hearing of polyphony is nice and you play this piece rather good.
