I'm just played this on a recital I had. Yay me! On to you.
You played it so fast! I don't know, it's up to you, but I don't think it was meant to be played that fast. It makes some parts sound pretty awkward.
It was good. I don't wanna make you feel bad like everyone else. You're very talented.
But since you posted a video, you leave yourself open to criticism on your technique - and it looks to me like your shoulder tension could be having a really adverse affect on your playing. Seems to me it takes twice as much work to play like that. My best pianist friend has exactly the same problem - you need to find a teacher at some point that will work on that. Or try yourself just to stop every like 12 measures and completely relax, and continue. Then when you find yourself not tense after each 12 measures, just stop after 24 measures. Then 48. I'm not a piano teacher, but I think that works - it worked for my friend.
But yah, you are a very exact player. I couldn't get through it with as few mistakes as you, and you play it much faster. You did slow down quite a bit though by the end.
This post sounds kind of negative, but I don't mean it to sound that way. It's just easier to say things that you notice that are wrong than to try to figure out how to describe what about it is good. It is good.
I would suggest more swelling in the part that starts with the half note counterpoint. (I'm sure you know which part I'm talking about.)
