George Kuo's new album "Kiho'alu: Stories in Song, Vol. 1" is part of an effort to achieve a common mission that George Winston and Kuo shared of having as many people in the universe getting to hear this most beautiful music of a traditional Hawaiian folk art being perpetuated over generations.
“Eastern Montana”, the first in a series of posthumous releases from acclaimed solo pianist George Winston, was inspired by the surroundings of his childhood growing up in Miles City and Billings during the 1950s. Winston described Montana with its beautiful topography and wonderful people as “the greatest feeling of love and inspiration I have ever had.” Winston’s legacy as one of the foremost instrumental composers of our time perseveres with his latest studio album "Eastern Montana" sure to become a Winston classic.
