Well played, sir! I especially enjoyed your phrasing and contrasting dynamics. You play with sensitivity. It's clear you know how the piece is constructed and flows together.
Just one suggestion. I would try to make the accompaniment even softer. Also, in some areas letting the accompaniment adds extra depth and beauty. For example, let the left hand out in measure 18 (you can hear the g natural to A flat). It gives a great effect in certain parts. I'll post mine soon, so you can hear what I mean.
Technical skills should never come before artistry. I think of technical ability as a necessary tool for extracting a truly moving performance from a sensitive interpretation. -Aviator1010110

Such a beautiful Impromptu.
If you were one of my students I would be proud to hear this. If I may make one suggestion: give a little more emphasize to your bass melodies. They are such a wonderful contrast whenever those bass melodies pop up. It helps keep up a certain tension that one needs to create to keep your audience enthralled.
A musical and sensitive performance. Keep it up.

Thank you.
Regards, [/b]A very touching performance!  Are using the Zoom H4 standalone? I was thinking of purchasing one of these. The quality is amazing! except for the loud sections which muffles the sound. Does adding condenser mics improve the quality drastically? http://www.pianoworld.com/ubb/ubb/ultimatebb.php?/topic/1/19708.html
