Nice playing! You are obviously in technical command of the piece. Was this recorded on a digital piano or an acoustic instrument? There is something slightly digital almost midi-like about some of it but I can't put my finger on what it is.

I think the  outer sections could use a bit more "bite" and attitude. Bring your most fiery, sexually proud Spanish self to it.

In the middle sections there are places that have octaves in the left hand and "1er Movement" written over it. You are playing these too slowly, they need to be the same tempo as the opening section. Compare your eighth notes between these two places and you'll see what I mean. Sometimes you also differ from the written  dynamics so I'd advice you to go through the piece really carefully once and making sure you are following the dynamics.

You came back after almost 4 years, just to check up on what we had (or hadn't) been saying about one of your recordings???
