It's quite well done! Do you have a teacher who can help you a bit with your technique? It could help take your playing (and your enjoyment of playing) further!

Well done.

To take this further I think you could work more on details of the lyrical sections.  Things like phrase definition, phrase direction, a clearer idea of where you want to place melodic emphasis.  Also, you could work on developing more tonal control in very soft passages, there were a couple sections were you were playing quiet notes but they were not speaking as you would have liked.  Work out the technique of the softer sections, just as you do the virtuosic ones.
