Btw I forgot to mention I think there are a lot of stellar pianists here !! Well, you've certainly been around long enough to know who's who. I am pretty much just sharing  [...] Which seemed obvious to me, but there seems to be some who are missing the clues to determine who is sharing for the enjoyment of others, and who is asking for help with their work.
I may not be fast,
but at least I'm slow.

By "some" I suppose you mean me. The main reason why I perceived "mixed signals" in this regard was the rather self-deprecating description, which IMO is not called for if you just intend to share. But now I know better. I shouldn't have said anything, and probably wouldn't have on a better day. And having annoyed enough people for one night, I'll shut up now.
Student and shamefully occasional pianist
Currently attempting:
Rachmaninoff - Preludes op. 23 nos. 4 and 7
Deciding between Mozart K. 310 and Beethoven op. 10 no. 3
Albeniz - Almeria from Iberia book II

I don't think the light is too dark, but I wouldn't have minded the camera being slightly closer.
I really enjoyed the performance. I think with more time and more performances, you will hone this into something very special indeed.

As always, brilliant, Pogo. The lighting is fine... not something to worry about at all. I don't dole out praise when not warranted, but this is excellent (and, as you know, I'm not even a big fan of the piece).

Bravo ! Very good.
In fact, musically much better than Kholodenko's version we heard recently at the Cliburn.
Thanks for sharing, waiting for the first movement.
