I really like this fantastic sonata, especially the motives that start in bar 5. Great performance!!

Thanks Luuk! The motif in bar 5 is a counterpoint to the opening motif which has shifted down to the LH. This sonata is one of the rare ones where the opening motif permeates the entire piece, albeit in altered guises.
