Good

Not as good as "December" by a long shot, but it is a good effort. Winston would be interesting to see in concert. I wonder if there are any video concert videos/DVD's out there.

music for all seasons

It's not the Goldberg variations, but this music truly has something very special about it. It simply captivates my mind and. Like somebody put music to the Serenity Prayer. I got this CD for Christmas and I've been playing it every now and then. If Mr. Winston reads this, I urge him to undertake a tour in Scandinavia and the Baltic States, because he has so many fans over here. In times like these we need the calming effect his mellow music has on the troubled mind.

Enchanting

If you are looking for excellent solo piano music, look no further. Autumn is the predecessor to George Winston's 1982 masterpiece, December, and fittingly poses as a worthy runner-up to the pianist's very best work. It's difficult to capture such passionate performance on a solo piano studio recording, but George Winston's sincerity and emotion shimmers through each track on this remarkable disc.

From the poignant "Colors/Dance" to the meandering "Road" and through the kinetic-sounding "Stars," this album is a captivating listen. While fall is an appropriate season to listen, don't let the title of this album fool you. This is music you can play any time of the year! I find myself listening to this album frequently whenever I want to relax and hear beautiful, contemplative music. Autumn contains some of the most earnest, soulful, and invigorating solo piano music I have ever heard. I highly recommend this album and Winston's subsequent 1982 release to you!
