I think this is a great idea but make sure you mention it to your teacher(s), head of the department, etc. When I was at U of T this wasn't really done except for a small "Thanks for coming, had a great time" before the last piece(and often not even that). You wouldn't want to get docked for marks because your adjudicator is stubborn and old fashioned and thinks it's unprofessional to talk to the audience.
As we all know, the mark you get on your recital has almost nothing to do with your career but your degree might!
