1	December (1982) more music like this by George Winston The mother of all solo instrumental albums, and with good reason. Mixing traditional carols with Pachelbel's Canon and a few originals, Winston produces a solo piano album of unparalleled -- and undeniable -- beauty. How can music be simultaneously stirring and soothing, relaxed yet exalted? Millions have found the answer here, and an industry has ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $13.56!
2	December [20th Anniversary Edition] (2001) more music like this by George Winston December: Silver Anniversary Edition commemorates the 20th anniversary of George Winston's December album. Originally conceived as the follow-up to Autumn, an earlier album of Winston's, December went on to become Winston's most popular recording, particularly whenever the holiday season came around. This reissue features new packaging and two ... see all copies from $10.93! new only from $10.93!
3	Thanksgiving: A Windham Hill Collection (1998) more music like this 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 ... see all copies from $9.52! new only from $13.53!
4	Autumn [20th Anniversary Edition] (2001) more music like this 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, ... see all copies from $12.62! new only from $16.59!
5	A Winter's Solstice, Vol. 2 (1986) more music like this by Various Artists Depending on the mood you're in, this compilation album will make you dream, smile, or cry a nostalgic tear. It is a typical Windham Hill sampler: wistful, joyful, lush, and lovely. Most songs stick with piano or string instrumentation, and none of them could ever be classified as up-tempo. A few of the tracks, including "The Gift" and "Sung to ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $8.29!
6	Virtuoso (1973) more music like this by Joe Pass This is the album that made Joe Pass famous. On what was actually his second set of unaccompanied guitar solos (Virtuoso No. 4 from a month earlier was released years later), Pass shows that it is possible to play unaccompanied versions of such up-tempo tunes as "How High the Moon," "Cherokee," and "The Song Is You" on guitar. Pass not only ... see all copies from $13.12! new only from $16.81!
7	Windham Hill Guitar Sampler (1988) more music like this by Various Artists Windham Hill's Guitar Sampler culls highlights from their vast catalog of contemporary instrumental guitarists, providing a good introduction to the atmospheric stylings of musicians like Peter Maunu, Andrew York and David Cullen. Rodney Batdorf, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.66! new only from $10.66!
8	Touch: Windham Hill 25 Years of Guitar (2001) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $8.36! new only from $11.06!
9	Linus & Lucy: The Music of Vince Guaraldi (1996) more music like this by 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, ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $12.69!
10	A Winter's Solstice, Vol. 4 (1993) more music like this by Various Artists The latest in Windham Hill's line of classic seasonal collections couples the label's most renowned artists and some of the holiday's mostly beloved music. We hear Alex de Grassi, Oysten Sevag, Turtle Island String Quartet, Will Ackerman, and Nightnoise, among others. The varied performances of these artists paint a perfect accompaniment to ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.29!
11 view cover	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 ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $4.99!
12 view cover	Conferring with the Moon: Pieces for Guitar (1986) more music like this by Will Ackerman Will Ackerman continued weaving textures explored three-years before in Past Light, his deft guitar accompanied by side instruments such as bass, lyricon, violin, English horn, piano, cello, charongo, and zampona. The all-digital 1980s production is more heavily affected, thinner and more brittle than his early albums, yet despite the dated ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.66!
13 view cover	Christmas Eve (1994) more music like this by David Lanz David Lanz at his best--intimate, personal solo piano. Not since his gold record performance on Cristofori's Dream has David recorded such an accessible and enchanting record...Selections include "Angels We Have Heard on High," "O Come, O Come Emmanuel," "O Holy Night," and "What Child is This." MusD, All Music Guide see all copies from $3.79! new only from $14.78!
14 view cover	Everybody Loves You (2003) more music like this by Kaki King Simply put, Kaki King possesses the most original voice on the acoustic guitar in a generation. Her sound, full of gorgeous tapped melodies and popping basslines, is as deeply emotional as John Fahey's, as technically savvy as Preston Reed's, and as energetic as Leo Kottke's (à la 6- and 12-String Guitar, Greenhouse, and Mudlark). Citing these ... see all copies from $8.74! new only from $10.28!
15 view cover	Montana: A Love Story (2004) more music like this by George Winston 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 ... see all copies from $4.75! new only from $10.32!
16 view cover	The Best of Narada Christmas (1998) more music like this by Various Artists The Best of Narada Christmas is a double-disc set featuring almost all of the label's biggest acts -- David Arkenstone, Dordan, Michael Gettel, Bruce Mitchell, David Lanz, Michael Whalen, Kostia, Billy McLaughlin, Brian Mann, Spencer Brewer, and Wayne Gratz -- performing familiar holiday tunes in the atmospheric style that has become the Narada ... see all copies from $6.15! new only from $15.65!
17 view cover	Celtic Christmas, Vol. 3 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists From the opening track's mournful oboe, cor anglais and uillean pipes it's obvious this will be an excursion into a Celtic evening. But what starts out engaging enough, with David Arkenstone's artful blending of synthesizer and pennywhistle to the vocals of Triona Ni Dhmohnaill and Lisa Lunne's Celtic harp, soon turns dark. The tunes conjure ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $3.44!
18 view cover	Sunday Morning (2005) more music like this by Jake Shimabukuro Shimabukuro is the undisputed master of the new school of ukulele playing today, one of the few people capable of pleasing both the traditionalists and the avant-garde within his genre. Thanks to this, and his stunning virtuosity on the instrument, there's been a fair amount of press about his versatility and abilities in general. This album, by ... see all copies from $10.99! new only from $14.56!
19 view cover	Gently Weeps (2006) more music like this by Jake Shimabukuro Every so often a musician comes along who completely reimagines the possibilities of a given instrument: Jimi Hendrix on the electric guitar, Bill Monroe on the mandolin, Miles Davis on the trumpet. Jake Shimabukuro has given the ukulele a new respect altogether: unlike the instruments previously mentioned, the uke has always been considered ... see all copies from $11.79! new only from $14.56!
20 view cover	Peace (2003) more music like this by Jim Brickman For his second holiday outing, pianist Jim Brickman follows the same formula that made 1997's The Gift such a success -- a selection of seasonal favorites combined with new compositions pleasantly performed by Brickman with a few guest vocalists added to break the instrumental mood. Like its predecessor, Peace utilizes the formula well, and the ... see all copies from $3.73! new only from $8.29!
21 view cover	Cristofori's Dream [Bonus Tracks] (1988) more music like this by David Lanz David Lanz's Cristofori's Dream is among the most popular new age recordings ever made. This is an album of instrumental piano music (with other instruments, especially strings and string-like synthesizers, added). Its selections have a calm elegance, as Lanz spends most of his time in the upper register of the piano delivering precise, ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $14.78!
22 view cover	Escape (2006) more music like this by Jim Brickman Pianist Jim Brickman delivers a solidly beautiful collection of his signature primarily instrumental, adult contemporary pop tunes on Escape. His first album for Sony Jazz after leaving his longtime label Windham Hill, Escape is a heartfelt, somewhat melancholy, and always pretty album that more often than not achieves a cinematic quality. In that ... see all copies from $14.61! new only from $16.23!
23 view cover	On a Starry Night (1997) more music like this by Various Artists A calming, diverse collection of lullabies from the world over. Assembly of the compilation is by violinist Tracy Silverman (Turtle Island String Quartet), a father of two. Silverman succeeded in capturing most lullabies performed by families. A smorgasbord of cultures is represented: Japan, Indonesia, Brazil, Ghana, Iceland, Israel, Russia, and ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $11.06!
24 view cover	Beyond Boundaries: Guitar Solos (2001) more music like this by Michael Hedges Released just over a year after 2000's Best of Michael Hedges -- an album with which this shares a whopping eight tracks -- Beyond Boundaries is a collection of 19 instrumentals featuring Hedges' distinctive acoustic fretwork. The final three tunes are previously unreleased live recordings (minus an audience) tacked on for the fans who already ... see all copies from $6.25! new only from $6.25!
25 view cover	Windham Hill Holiday Guitar Collection (2006) more music like this by Various Artists For those who have been fans of John Fahey's instrumental Christmas recordings for solo guitar, this Windham Hill compilation may provide further enjoyment. Tuck Andress, Will Ackerman, Steve Morse, Alex de Grassi, Steve Erquiaga, and others provide a gorgeous sounding collection of holiday fare, equally divided between sacred and secular tunes. ... see all copies from $11.28! new only from $16.59!
