WINDHAM HILL Autumn (Special Edition) [ECD] (1980)
The precursor to 1982's commercial breakthrough, December , George Winston's 1980 Windham Hill debut boasts all the lyrical power and poignancy of its follow-up. A simple, clear recording for solo piano, Autumn finds Winston developing simple melodic motifs with studied left-hand underpinning, on hypnotic pieces such as "Woods", which moves from a brisk rhythmic figure to rubato minor-key runs. Leaving pauses and breaths in all the right places, Winston suggests the play of colour and light, the comfortable melancholy and the encroaching slow-down that characterises the fall season. Full of memorable themes, sure pacing and whiffs of classical grandeur, Autumn is a timeless album that belongs to the firmament of the new-age canon. -- James Rotondi
