Muzio Clementi - Sonatina op.36 no.1 1st movement

Overall a very nice performance! A few things to work on:

-Phrasing. This is what really takes pieces like this to the next level. If you have some idea of what your phrases are and what shape you want to give each of them, it will improve your overall sound so much.

-Articulation. Make sure that your legato passages are really connected, and distinguished from things that aren't legato.

-Rhythm. Overall your rhythms were fine and there were no obvious errors. But there was a bit of unevenness in some of those long 8th note passages. I'd work on those with the right hand alone until you feel they're as even as possible.

Also, add in the repeats! That will really make it sound like a sonatina.
