For those critics out there, I know there are a few technical mistakes out near the end, but this was a live performance and you get what you get. I have an audio recorded version with a few less mistakes =)

in the profession(music) that we are in,there is nothing wrong with constructive critique.talent bashing and insults shed no lite.great job! just slow down and breathe.

a few mistakes, and the rubato was used a little more liberally than most, but otherwise, beautifully expressive.

Keep playing. Some responses sounded as if they were subconsciously jealous. Ignore them play on James. Bill Ligon

Leave all the technical mistakes aside, it happens to the best, the thing that bothered me the most is your inability to keep a steady pace, and that's a shame cuz other than that you really have a grip on this piece.

@swedchef79 A few technical mistakes? The rhythm was reset several times. Live performances should be more esteemed than less. Mistakes in live performances should be less acceptible.

Rubato was uncalled for, disjointed in the second half, lots of hiccoughs. Just practice!
