This is outstanding, the only thing I didn't care for was the mannerism around the 8s mark. With playing like that, I'm not sure you need to be attending a conservatoire, at least not as a student..

That's really nice to hear thank you! I've been trying to distinguish between genuine rubato and mannerisms, hard to find the fine line.
