Tune of the Week: George Winston

George Winston is an American pianist often associated with the 80’s New Age movement. In fact his record “December” is the greatest selling title in the catalog of the New Age poster-child label Windham Hill. Here Winston interprets a Bach piece. Winston’s technique is truly a marvel. At times it sounds as if he has more than two hands on the keyboard. The recording itself is amazing, sounding as if you are within the piano. The piece captures the vastness and intricateness of the winter season: delicate falling snow and unfettered landscapes.
