Carol Of the Bells Music - sheet music, score, notes and chords
It was American primitive guitarist John Fahey that recognised George Winston's talent and originality. George Winston's first album Ballad and Blues was recorded on John Fahey's own record label, Takoma records.
We live in an age of thumping rock music, blaring TV adverts and cartoons. With the hectic pace of working and family life it's not easy to find moments of peace and tranquility. We all need moments of reflection to see where we've been and where we're going to. Our bodies and brains need moments of calm and rejuvenation.
What better way than to switch off and switch on to some gentle relaxing piano music. Yes we could listen to the great piano music of Beethoven etc., but Classical music is full of many moods and dynamics. Winston's music on the whole though not technically as advanced as Beethoven nevertheles succeeds on a different level.
If you've never given this piano music a listen before try and hear it through different ears and take some time out and relax - it might do you a world of good.

George Winston - Soundtracks
Another Dimension to George Winston's Solo Piano Works
Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes
This CD has George Winston Playing Guitar. I think some of the tracks feature slack key guitar. On this CD George Winston returns to the begining of his musical career (before his piano compositions became popular). Beautiful guitar playing - relaxing and melodic. All the tracks with the Japanese story of Sadako and the Thousand Cranes are repeated without narration.
