I would like to hear your comments on my performance and sound of my piano.

Please listen with ear/head phones.

Wonderful and creative (and to me unexpected  but effective ) pacing , this was one of my music school/college (uni/conservatory) audition pieces so I feel like I know it well enough having spent so much time w it years ago and a lot of what you did sounded fresh to me, excellent , exceedingly excellent actually

A direct and refreshing approach to the piece with a luminous tone. 

What is the piano and recording gear?

Very good and pleasant to the ear. There's a lack of pretense that I really like about this as if you're communicating sincerely and plainly, which I appreciate. The piano itself has an airy, light tone to it that I also like.
