Not bad at all, it seems like a really challenging piece. It could stand to be smoother in places but overall it had a lot of good qualities. Good luck with the Rachmaninoff!
Care to see my playing?

I really like Moszkowsky's etudes too:-) You have your fingers going, I am jealous.
 If I might add one suggestion it would be about the tempo. It is an etude so it is supposed to be played keeping strictly the same tempo throughout the whole piece. Accelerating and slowing down at certain places makes it easier to play but it makes it sound a little messy.

Thanks for your comment! :) Fully noted and i agree. Nowadays i like to look at them not only as etudes but as a little musical poems haha :)

Oh, I absolutely noticed this in your interpretation that you really like the piece and made it sound like a small ballade or poem. I was prepared to hear an etude that's why tempo changes surprised me instantly.
