George Winston - Night: Snow / Midnight / Minstrels

[@central_scrutinizr]

I can’t help but tear up when I listen to this. My mother would play this album every year during the holidays. It reminds me of the childhood magic of Christmas, and happy times spent with loved ones, including grandparents who are no longer with us. I will play this for my children someday...

[@lisabunnie22960]

I feel you. This Lp changed my being, too. I used to gift it on vinyl and tape back in the day. It's unyielding in emotion.

ON VINYL BROTHER..........SO SAD

Windham Hill music heals broken hearts

[@zarkinfrood]

This is what I used to listen to drifting off to sleep. So peaceful, but I can tell you that I had some sincerely strange dreams.

I have been listening to George Winston since the early 80s. He is one of a small group of musicians who's music I can listen to over and over and it will always take me away . This and Autumn both have a special place in my heart, though, like no other music has, or most likely ever will.

[@Icy6222]

i have listend to this every year around christmas and thanksgiving time ever since i was little

[@abaloneguy]

I saw George Winsonplaying this live in San Francisco 1983 I thought it cool he played barefoot. The music calmed a restless boy and now lowers the blood pressure of an old guy. Some music unlocks my soul and this is one of them.

Yo descubrí a Georges Winston en el 2000, fue directo a mi alma, y contínua en ella. Espiritual, divino, maravilloso, alegre. Thanks!!

[@angelarandiaduran]

Yo lo conocí, por el comercial del Ford Taurus 1989 (México) y me gustó mucho su música, es simplemente hermosa

[@spooninjapan]

This reminds of my Dad playing this on the stereo whenever it was snowing outside. It really epitomizes the beauty of snow. Only Vivaldi's Seasons and this album have captured that essence.

[@roccodipaolo4444]

I had this album in the 90s and it is still a work of genius.

[@bluesr4me]

Love this cd. Minstrels being my favorite to listen to & also to play. It's a piece you not only hear, but you absolutely feel. Simply beautiful.

[@alkodjdjd]

I was living in Venezuela at the time and my dad met BMG's president. He gave my dad 4 or 5 LP's and the pretty picture in the cover one caught my eye. I played the Pachelbel tune and almost cried. Since then I can't get tired of listening to this album.

[@lisabunnie22960]

This trio did more for making me feel empty than any song with lyrics.

[@alexmeyer5260]

My 3rd grade teacher often played George Winston's music while we worked on class activities. Thank you Miss Clearwater!!

[@mosin54r2]

All of his music is just beautiful....I don't know how he does it. It's amazing how music with nothing but a piano can be so moving

[@vedrankovacic6266]

Still have the old vinyl, masterpiece, first choice wintertime music, it is a sort of a cult, you can´t say anything against it, but then again, who could do such a thing?

[@ArrizzaMusic]

part 3: minstrels -- is actually an old Greek Christmas carol (Kalanda) - "Arhimonia ke Arhihronia"

[@alkodjdjd]

Thanks: I actually googled it

[@shihabnahk]

Tranquility !! Serenity !! Calmness !! Peacefulness !! quietude !! Stillness

[@tarheelmillertime]

[@Mr_Bondi]

This piece is simply beautiful, and yet so deep

[@Ms222Donna]

I have listened to this over and over again...love it!

[@JadeTigerGem]

O wow, this is haunting.

[@angelagoguen4659]

I discovered George Winston back in the early 90s when I working in preschool. This this cd is timeless and as we approach the holiday season , it is in my rotation.

[@timlosee3375]

The urgent love of my Lord Jesus calling...

[@TheSeverusSnape]

A thing of pure beauty. Whole landscapes through music.

[@ikouts]

I love this cd!

[@bystandersarah]

Sooo nostalgic!!😊

[@OdedFriedGaon]

George is awesome!

[@99centstore]

The last interval on "Midnight" makes me tear up.

[@central_scrutinizr]

Me too :)

[@jeanloughran6852]

Beautiful and contemplative! A very peaceful piece! I especially enjoyed Snow and Minstrels!

[@seantowey]

Relaxation and Beautiful are a couple of the MANY words to describe this piece.

[@briansherman823]

One of my very favorite Winston songs.

[@EnigmaEightEighty8]

Ineffably classic, cool, awesome...

[@이하빈하준]

My soul........~~ before the December... And remember

[@MichaelBoryAlis]

I dare not try to describe, for my words would be feeble,

[@gizzie0716]

I've been learning this by ear, really wish there was actual sheet music for it somewhere! George Winston is amazing.

[@digdugevilbeaver]

nantucket 84' sandy socks, divorce, teen crush and a perfect sound track to accompany the innocent minds of adolescence.

You get a cookie for this statement.

[@MichaelBoryAlis]

@GiorniVenibato I guess I am having a bout of density, I don't understand what you mean.

[@TheAnonymousComedy]

Step 1: Snow Step 2: Midnight Step 3: Minstrels Step 4: ??? Step 5: Sleep soundly

[@geranmark7950]

4 people missed the like button by a few centimeters. Remember the like button is the one with the thumb's up, not with the thumbs down.

[@JoshJay]

3 very broken people did not like this

[@johngrunwell6101]

Easily the equal of any Arvo Part or Philip Glass stuff out there.

[@GiorniVenibato]

@MichaelBoryAlis I say it is a hot mess. or should it be the polar opposite. :)

[@abwise001]

@RileyRaeMusic

[@Aerovistae]

do you have sheets for this?

[@southport97]

Album cover looks like Vermont.
