Biography

US-born pianist George Winston describes his compositions as 'rural folk piano', although his nature-inspired work has seen him described as a pioneer of new age music.

Winston was a life-long fan of instrumental music, but he had left high school before he learned to play the organ and piano. His early compositions were a mix of folk, blues and ragtime, though when his debut album, Ballads andRead more in Amazon's George Winston Store

5.0 out of 5 stars Great music; not so great value, January 16, 2001
This review is from: Complete Solo Recordings 1972-1996 (Audio CD)
This is a great collection, but the real question is: is it worth 100 bucks? Sure, it comes in a snazzy blue box and a "limited edition collector's booklet" (which, BTW, is nothing more than liner notes), but it contains no extra rarities or previously unreleased tracks. This box set worked out great for me since all my George Winston albums are either on vinyl or tape, and I've been meaning to get them again on CDs, but if you already have one or more CDs that are in this box set, you'd probably be better off buying the rest individually. (unless, of course, you REALLY want the blue box and the "limited edition collector's booklet"...)

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't think, just click above, and order this CD set!, September 1, 1999

If you could purchase joy, like joy was something tangible you could possess, then this is the closest you will ever get. If you you don't fall in love with Colors/Dance from Autumn, look at halloween differently through the Woods from Autumn, relive Christmas Eve as a child on December, find solice in January Stars on Winter into Spring, and feel regret in Where are you now? on Summer, then you have my pity.

5.0 out of 5 stars Music for being alone, not feeling lonely., January 2, 2009

This review is from: Complete Solo Recordings 1972-1996 (Audio CD)
I own this box set for more than 10 years already, and everytime I listen back to one of it's CDs it's like listening to it for the first time again... peace, joy, relax, meditation.

Not recommended for everybody though.
