Grammy-nominated EARTHBEAT

EARTHBEAT by the Dimitri Pokrovsky Singers

A milestone collaboration: the first album of original music created by Americans and Russians together. The Consort's western harmonies and Afro-Brazilian rhythms floating over the ancient circle songs and village chants revitalized by the dynamic Russian singers make this into an energetic, reverberating layering of sound.

"Paul's fusion of this 1,000-year old Russian ethnic choral tradition with the personal style of his group is a forceful statement of his belief in the oneness of our earth song." (DAVE BRUBECK)

"For centuries, trained composers have tried rearranging fok music. In this ground-breaking album, Paul Winter does something that may set a new path - of juxtaposing and superimposing different idioms. It may raise eyebrows. I think it's great."
(PETE SEEGER)

Grammy©-winning CELTIC SOLSTICE

CELTIC SOLSTICE by Paul Winter and Friends

A cornerstone of Grammy©-winning CELTIC SOLSTICE is the mesmerizing song 'Golden Apples of the Sun', sung by Karan Casey, based on W.B.Yeats' poem 'The Song of Wandering Aengus', a poem of yearning and questing. It introduces the motif of the "golden apples of the sun" from the musical branch of the Celtic poet, used by Winter for the cover of the album.

"...Winter shines alongside the likes of uilleann pipes masters Davy Spillane and Jerry O'Sullivan, whistle and flute player Joanie Madden, fiddler Eileen Ivers, vocalist Karen Casey, harp player Carol Thompson, bassist Bakithi Kumalo, bodhrán player Austin McGrath, guitarist Zan McLeod, percussionist Jamey Haddad, and keyboardist Paul Halley [...] A wonderfully produced and uplifting album"
