"Paul Winter's annual winter solstice performances aren't just
yuletide celebrations, but a global ritual played out in the embracing echoes
of the cathedral of St John the Divine. Winter draws together musicians
from around the world and, like the cathedral, gathers their music under
the broad umbrella of the Consort. Always the musical eclectic, Winter goes
to town in these once-a-year performances." (John Diliberto)
