While reading about alternate tunings I was saddened to learn that musician George Winston died this summer, on June 4, 2023. He is best known for his solo piano compositions that helped define New Age music — although he preferred to describe his style as “rural folk piano”. He also played harmonica and acoustic guitar. I discovered George in the eighties and was fortunate to have a front row seat to see him perform in 2018. He was frail from his battle with multiple cancers, so I remember a poignant, graceful performance.

You did well to get to hear him perform live, Diane. I trust that memory will be forever with you. I have one of George's CDs, Autumn, and love its originality and his creative style of expressing his feelings through notes.
