Who is this performed by?

[@brettbreet]

During the pandemic, this song takes on a whole other meaning. Now it's "I'll *stay* home for Christmas"!

[@rupertaustin]

Indeed!

[@mentos12ul]

The songs already perfect because the lyrics are I'll be home for Christmas, if only in a dream!

[@nary2053]

It's always a delight to know you post new Christmas-themed arrangements around this time of year. Great arrangement as always!

[@rupertaustin]

Glad you like them!

[@adamplaysmeinl]

Rupert wait slow down I'm still trying to nail Somewhere over the rainbow from ~3 years ago. This is amazing. Rubert you are a gift love u

[@JD-qd5zp]

Me too. I’m still working on Somewhere Over the Rainbow!

[@rupertaustin]

Thanks for your kind comment

[@boreumkimlmlm]

I will be home for Christmas to play this song, definitely! It is a perfect playing to comfort me while we all keep distancing each other. Thanks for giving us a gorgeous Christmas gift. HAPPY warm Christmas 🎄

I love these arrangements! Please keep them coming

[@rupertaustin]

Glad you are enjoying them

[@ronioclarenzo6137]

This one almost made me cry. I haven't been home in over 16 years and don't know if I'll ever make it back. Thanks for cheering me up...somehow...

[@rupertaustin]

Glad you enjoyed it. It is a kind of sad song I think, even for those lucky enough to be home whenever they choose.

[@tavanshah2745]

This is soo beautiful!! Love the Rachmaninoff-style of the left hand ❤️

[@rupertaustin]

Glad you like it!

[@JD-qd5zp]

I can’t understand why Mr. Austin is not world famous. Give him time, and I think he will be. I think in time we will see volumes of his arrangements published for all of us players. All I Gotta do is learn all of his arrangements and get a job as a cocktail pianist somewhere. He’s the best. A huge fan, and he knows it. Jim

Rupert releases these in November because he knows we’ll take over a month to learn them

[@geraldgoodii2839]

That’s for sure! The runs in Love Letters took me several months!

[@TheDusty1920]

As always, what a gift! Thank you so much for this and the other recent uploads

[@royalbert4252]

I agree verbatim with Mr. James

[@rupertaustin]

Glad you like them!

[@jazzkang7093]

What a romantic... you must upload your playing per day.

[@rupertaustin]

Thanks for listening

[@dae2585]

I will definitely be home for Christmas with the pandemic still going on

[@MsSoundguy]

Thank you, Rupert. I'll be buying it soon. This song will be receiving a lot of play this year because of the virus and having to stay in place. It was arranged as a sentimental Christmas song during WWII. It's scarily appropriate now, in the midst of another war. Your interpretation is magical and melancholy...who could ask for anything more?

[@ethanmulvihill7177]

Hahaha, "war"

[@JD-qd5zp]

@MsSkundGuy - People may not realize it, but with this pandemic going on we are engaged in World War III, and we don’t have enough soldiers, but we have way too many deserters who are not socially distancing and wearing masks.

[@JN-Music]

Rupert's arrangements are awesome! If you're looking for so more material, I just posted my rendition of O come all ye faithful. It's pretty advanced but super fun. Give it a shot!

Do you have a book with all your music in it? I bought White Christmas on Sheet Music and love it. I would like to get all your Christmas music in a spiral bound ideally. When I can play them all to the standard you've written them, I will be very happy.

[@rupertaustin]

Hello, thanks for your interest. Unfortunately all these lovely old songs are still protected by copyright and I have have no freedom to sell them as a collection. The best I can do is sell them individually at Sheet Music Plus / Sheet Music Direct who ensure the required proprtion of the sales goes to the copyright holder. They do not allow publication of collections - each title must be sold separately.

[@ChrisDadd]

@@rupertaustin no problem. I bought them all anyway. Been trying them out today. It's going to take me a while to play them as well as you do but they are joyous. I discovered you via a pianist on a Facebook group I'm in. I'd bought your White Christmas before he even finished playing it.

I will get around to that song one day...

[@LukeTheringMusic]

Beautiful! Nicely done. M. 10 should be G7 not E7, btw. I wonder: why do you use G#'s instead of Ab's on a G7b9 chord? Is it to help visually 'see' the shape as an E7 above G?

[@rupertaustin]

Well spotted; I need to correct that chord symbol in M9. Should be G13(b9). I usually notate with the aim of easiest readability as that is the foremost consideration for the performer rather than strictly correct music theory. In this piece I use G13(b9) a lot, which usually realized with an E major triad over a G/B/F left hand, and I think it reads more easily with the G# rather than Ab.
