George Winston
Winston's impressions of the fall season are full of slow chording and sudden melodic runs on his acoustic piano. He captures the mixed feelings of the season, both its final flaring of life and its gradual retreat. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide

Thanksgiving: A Windham Hill Collection
(1998)

by
Various Artists
A Thanksgiving recording? That's what the folks at Windham Hill have proposed. Whether or not the theme truly makes sense is quickly made irrelevant by the beautiful performances. Of particular note is the stunning performance of "We Gather Together" by Paul McCandless, Philip Aaberg, and Michael Manring. The entire set is a consistently beautiful ...

Plains
(1999)
more music like this
by
George Winston
Like 1994's Forest, George Winston's 2000 album Plains is inspired by the subtle beauty of America's landscapes. Pieces like "Dubuque" and "Muliwai" evoke regions as diverse as Montana's fields and Hawaiian shores, but Winston's distinctive piano stylings unite the songs into a cohesive vision. Though his interpretation of Sammy Cahn's "Teach Me ...

Summer [Special Edition]
(1991)

by
George Winston
Summer is George Winston's fourth collection of seasonably themed solo piano pieces. His deft touch on the keyboard is intact -- in fact, it's probably Winston's light hand that allows him to blend folk music, new age introspection, and jazz improvisation so ably. Opener "Living in the Country" finds an Irish traditional inside a Pete Seeger ...

Winter into Spring [20th Anniversary Edition]

by
George Winston
In a sense, this second seasonal album follows an opposite direction from Autumn, its hard, isolated notes and stop-and-start style gradually giving way from the stasis of winter to the growth and movement of spring. It's a good album for beginning your day. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide

Autumn [20th Anniversary Edition]

by
George Winston
It's so interesting how a popular solo pianist known for impressionistic piano spends much of his liner notes detailing the inspirations of jazz giants like John Coltrane and rockers like the Doors and Procol Harum (a moody cover of that band's "Too Much Between Us" is a bonus on this edition). The improvisational midsection of the opening track, ...

A love letter to his home state, Montana is George Winston's most varied album since 1999's Plains and probably his most personal album, ever. His last album -- 2002's Night Divides the Day -- focused on his first musical inspiration, the Doors. Montana goes deeper into his heart, back to childhood memories of his family's house, lullabies, and ...

George Winston
Combining the whimsical yet elegant compositions of Vince Guaraldi and the mellow, restrained playing of George Winston, Linus & Lucy: The Music of Vince Guaraldi is a mostly happy marriage of the composer's and performer's styles. On much of the album, Winston tends to tone down the breeziness of Guaraldi's performances, opting for a gentler, ...

In what has become a tired (albeit profitable) theme, the Windham Hill recording company offers A Winter's Solstice V. The performances are fine, as expected, and the overall mood is both quiet and reflective; however, one has to wonder how many Winter Solstice's one needs. ~ Robert Taylor, All Music Guide

This record will be issued a week after the first anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, and in the middle of hurricane season.
