One very disturbing question - why is your keyboard sounding 2 semitones higher than normal??? You clearly played it in A flat major, but the audio is in B flat major... Does someone have the transposition button on??? (The same goes for your Schubert as well... I don't know if it's every video, but it's quite odd to listen to for someone who has perfect pitch...

Other than that - it's not bad - just needs a little more flow to it.

Thank you for telling me, perfect_pitch ! I hadn't realized..indeed, the transposition button was pressed, I fixed it now :) better late than never :D I'm not used to this synthesizer so I had no idea how to adjust it. 
And I'm just beginning to learn it, I will work on the flow, thanks :)

Nice..  I would like to hear a bit more dynamic shading…especially in the 'con anima'..  where an echo effect could be used…  But I can't help but think that with a more stable support for the keyboard, it would shake so, and it would be much easier to play…I would consider setting it on a desk or table …at the right height , of course…..  or getting the beefiest kybrd stand…
Cheers!

Thank you for the advice:) I will consider it and try to stabilize the keyboard. And thank you for appreciating my interpretation :)
