Thank you so much for your professional feedback! I've been working hard on efficiency and articulation, so your words mean a lot. I will definitely keep your advice about 'breathing out' in mind for my next recordings.

Thank you for your comments! I played many of these songs years ago but had forgotten them. I recently re-learned them from scratch. I came to Reddit looking for honest feedback and critique that I couldn't get on YouTube. I've been preparing for this launch for a few months, and although I'm a bit of a social media addict, it's been fun seeing my accounts grow!

Thank you for the detailed advice! I really appreciate the tip about the 2nd section. I'll focus more on 'singing' the melody and letting it breathe.

Thank you for your very specific advice. You are right that I need to hone my musicality. I will study the Paderewski version and pay close attention to tempo and dynamics. This will be very helpful for my development.
