What a beautiful arrangement of this clasic song!!

[@rupertaustin]

Many thanks. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@pianobar-bartoszsobczynski1321]

Ira Gershwin once admitted that Ella Fitzgerald's performances of George Gershwin's songs were the best he's heard. And I can say the same about you arranging them for solo piano. This and your arrangement of "Someone to Watch Over Me" will certainly make an appearance on my channel this fall. Greetings.

Thank you so much for your kind comment

I've got a crush on your arrangements, rupert! this one is fabulous (as always) the harmony is top shelf. please do some more arrangements when you have time!

[@rupertaustin]

Thanks for your enthusiastic comment. I will work on one or two Christmas songs now, but I had better get a move on as it is just around the corner!

[@wendyjohn8315]

@@rupertaustin yes it is! I play christmas piano music at the seattle cancer care alliance in their waiting rooms. It will be nice to download your new Christmas stuff so I can give the patients a nice "concert!" more than the usual tired old carols!

[@johannsebastienbach]

Yes the harmony is spot on.

Welcome back ! We missed you

[@rupertaustin]

How kind! Thank you very much

[@john3260]

I hope you enjoyed the break you took!

[@rupertaustin]

Yes, I have indeed taken a break. I get quite distracted with more outdoor activities in the summer months.

[@john3260]

@@rupertaustin Haha, it's good. Going outside is good for the mind and just in general. By the way, I like your new arrangement, maybe I'll use it eventually if I get the courage to do so, haha.

[@Hahdesu]

your top voice/melody is beautiful as always. thank you for this.

WHERE IS OUR DEAR RUPERT AUSTIN ????? WHO KNOWS ????😢 ?

[@rupertaustin]

Hello there!. I'm still here, and I hope to post a new video quite soon.

[@Dylonely42]

Nice.

[@fauzybima2826]

Is this being recorded with Kontakt live? Or you just drag the midi with Kontakt library? and what library is this because it sounds so lively

[@rupertaustin]

Thanks for your comment. I use the Synthogy Ivory II Steinway Model D sampled piano (it is not a Kontakt library) as a VST within the Reaper DAW. The reverb is Fab Filter Pro-R

[@fauzybima2826]

@@rupertaustin and you record it live?

[@rupertaustin]

@@fauzybima2826 Yes I record it live, but it usually requires two or three takes to get a nice version.

I really Love your Solo Piano playing! Could you possibly do some Solo arrangements of your favorite Charlie Parker tunes? Thanks!

[@rupertaustin]

Thanks for your comment. Billie's Bounce is on my to do list, so it might show up some time next year.

[@DapperDevNull]

Some absolute magic in measure 15

[@johntd5761]

Just what I need at this moment to relax with nice melodic piano music Thank you

[@rupertaustin]

Many thanks!

[@rupertaustin]

Glad it helped you relax!

[@rutxi2615]

I love the tension on bar58 on the left hand resolving on the right on bar59. Such a good job!! Congrats!

[@rupertaustin]

Thanks for your insightful comment. I did indeed include quite a spicy sound in the middle of bar 58, and it is usually pleasing to the ear to find a good way to resolve such sounds.

[@johannsebastienbach]

Beautiful jazz arramgment

[@rupertaustin]

Many thanks!

[@Pythonaria]

I remarked to my son the other day that you hadn't uploaded for a while...then here you are with another wonderful arrangement. Will be adding it to my growing collection of your arrangements. Thank you Rupert.

[@rupertaustin]

Hello, yes it's been a while since my last upload. Glad you like it though!

[@Pythonaria]

@@rupertaustin I was playing your music the other night - some of your Christmas song arrangements. They really are good and very enjoyable to play.

[@ciararespect4296]

Beautiful arrangement again. Had so much fun with your other ones

[@rupertaustin]

Thanks, and lovely to hear that

04:23, bar 66

[@Oleg__]

Your time code is for bar 67, the second beat. What did you want to say on bar 66?

[@nicholasr6381]

absolutely beautiful

[@rupertaustin]

Many thanks!

[@s.j7423]

Rupert !!!!

[@nezkeys79]

One of your best so far 👌 beautiful ❤

[@rupertaustin]

Wow, thank you!

[@s.j7423]

:] it's lovely, thank you

[@rupertaustin]

Hey, glad you like it!

[@nezkeys79]

3:00 is probably my favourite chord of all time C13 #11 🔥

[@Oleg__]

The same chord appears twice in "Love Letters" (bars 26 and 42). And yes, I was also impressed with this chord, noting it in my past comment. "Love Letters" is one of my favorites here.

[@nezkeys79]

@@Oleg__ yes especially when a Cm7 comes after it

[@rupertaustin]

It is C13#11 and also occurs at beginning of bar 23 for example. If you want to produce this particular altered dominant sound in any key, play root + major third + minor seventh in left hand (e.g. F A Eb for F dominant) and a major triad from two half-steps above that root (so for F dominant add a G major triad). It is a lovely sound but even better if you can incorporate it in the optimum places.

[@nezkeys79]

@@rupertaustin yeah I knew the chord already and I also learned it the same way (as a polychord) D / C7. Of course you don't need the 5th (or the root if there's a bass player so E Bb D F# A is fine) I learned regular 13 chords with this "polychord" approach too. For example LH: Bb +Ab RH: Gm triad Thinking of a minor triad of the 6th degree of the scale over a root and 7th helped me to learn them as a youngster. I applied this sort of thinking to many other chords. G11 for example can be thought of as F/G. Other examples.. C7 b5 b9 = F# triad / C+E C13 b5 b9 = F#m triad / C+E

[@edmundtario]

So cool

[@rupertaustin]

Many thanks!
