My mom had this song memorized, she loved it so much. When I was a kid, I would often wake up in the morning to the sound of her playing this on the baby grand in the living room. George Winston was the soundtrack to my childhood. Now that my mom has been gone a few years, this brings back such wonderful memories of my time with her. Thank you, George! ❤️
What a wonderful way to have started your days back then.
Such a beautiful gift of music has been given to George Winston by God. His piano music touches my heart and soul throughout All the Seasons
What a lovely memory. George Winston’s Autumn and December albums have fond memories for me too.
ㅠ..ㅠ
George was one of the nicest guys I ever met and one of the funniest as well. I remember us being on tour together in Washington around 1979 and riding around in a taxi with me laughing hysterical listening to him talk about his obsession and love of ice cream. I will never forget it and I laughed until I cried. Now he has left this place but not the place in my heart. Take care George, I miss you. David Qualey
Brings me back to my days as a medical student listening to this gifted man play.
This song was played at my grandpa’s funeral and I almost cry every time I hear it. Love you grandpa 💙
Great idea, putting that in my will!
It’s definitely a good song - still get teary listening to it now and he passed 9 years ago
RIP Mr. Winston! 😢
I was born in 88 my parents used to play this in my room when I was a baby
Do you remember? Does it resonate with you and bring up a warm memory of your connection as a baby with your parents? I was just going to suggest to my Auntie that she play this for her great-grandson who is turning one. Make the album December connected to her because I believe he will always remember their sweet bond when he is older and what better music than these compasitions that will transcend the ages throughout humanity? They must safeguard this prized treasure. George Winstons's gift connects with the very essence of my humanity and the love inside the tears of all my sorrows and out pour the tears of joy soon thereafter. This is human renewal in a bottle.
I remember being in the Virgin Islands with my two brothers. I had just experienced watching Paul Newman and Jackson Browne having a toss with a frisbee. I ventured down to this open restaurant in cinnamon bay. George Winston was playing his piano. He was practicing for a concert later that evening. From then on I was forever hooked.
@@toddanderson2792 Wow! What a fabulous moment in time for you! And on a beautiful island in the Caribbean!!! I just don't think life gets any more idyllic than that. Here's to hoping you didn't get sucked into the rat race. Every baby, toddler, child, adolescent, teen and adult would benefit from this powerful and otherworldly beautiful music. I feel our humanity in George Winston's December especially. It s so deeply soulful and takes me into the center of love and joy. Love heals the brokenhearted and i know music is our universal language that proves our connectedness.
You are blessed. You will remember wonderful music all of your life.
How lucky you are
RIP George Winston. Raw talent and vision.😊
Your music will be never ending.
George Winston
Is the solace in an insane world we're forced to cope with, blessed are those whom know GW to give us solace.
I still remember the first time I ever heard this song in HS…1993…….whenever I need to feel like life is gonna be ok….and there’s hope…..I put this on. Thank you George Winston!
Never though I would say this, but getting put on hold by a software vendor is how I first discovered this wonderful arrangement.
My 13 year old nephew plays this and I loved it. That's why I'm here
Tears…. I can’t imagine a world without his music
Rest in peace great master, thank you for bequeathing to us this musical testament to the beauty of the world that transpires in your fingers and your mind. Your music will resonate with me forever 💚
This is sad news. I saw him in concert a couple of times when I lived in Minneapolis. Being mesmerized by one guy sitting at a piano is an awe inspiring experience.
Hearing George Winston again brings back memories of my husband and I sitting in the living room back in 1983, absorbing the wonderful solos. I lost my beloved 12 years ago: he introduced me to the wonderful music of this gifted artist.
Always great music from George.
I use Alexa as an alarm clock and lately I've been having her select music. Last night I told her to wake me to George Winston, and this morning I awoke to this track. Couldn't have been more peaceful :-)
I remember George Winston playing this song in concert so many years ago and I still feel the notes work their magic in me.
Listened to this a million times since it came out when I was in high school and it still makes me wanna cry every time.
George breathed soul into this beautiful work. Just watch others try play it on U tbe, and you see just how special George is.
me too. It's so poignant and sweet. the perfect song.
Josh SAME. My dad showed me the album December and introduced me to all of Winston's work and I LOVE it. I remember listening to this song for hours at home throughout the years, and it STILL touches me the very same to this day. George Winston is a gift to us all.
Bro sameeee
This man is such a unique, gifted musician...None like him, and from the first hearing of this album it is far and away my seasonal favorite...It's 'not' Christmas until I've heard this...It's a Thanksgiving night tradition, to play this album...and YES, cry for joy~!
My husband and I fell in love listening to this CD. This was the "parents walk" and Canon in D was the processional at our wedding almost 11 years ago ❤
That's a beautiful scene to witness. Thanks for sharing.
This was my choice for “parents walk” too almost 16 years ago. 💖
literally gives me an joyful feeling in my heart. Thank you Mr. George.
George Winston is an absolute legend.
This music makes life better
오래 두고 들어도 좋은.. .

May your journey be forever brighter. Thank you for sharing your gifts. Thank you for following your heart. And thank you for being a light in all of our lives.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written. Thank you.
The feelings of joy in my heart when I hear this song played on the Piano by George Winston are so beautiful. Rest in Peace George❤
Still my favorite track off of December.
RIP to this legend. I look forward to this being's return, where I am hoping he will find the pianoforte once again 🙂
Its not Christmas without this song.Thank you for playing it.
Beautiful song and rendition of jesu, joy of man's desiring. Would bring calm to my world when I was listening to this 35 years ago!
1980s. Fireplace is burning cedar in Albuquerque. Radio is playing George Winston and I am entranced. Dias de maravilla.
I so love his piano playing. It seems to relax me when things are not going well.
겨울이면 꼭 챙겨 듣는 연주곡~~한해를 마무리 할수 있게 마음을 차분하게 해준다.
George Winston inspired me to start learning the piano with this song. I love all albums, and especially December, but this song in particular has got to be my favorite. It's beyond beautiful. Thank you George Winston from the bottom of my heart for creating such beautiful music and helping me see joy every time I listen to it.
This album saved me from myself more than once .
I'm from an age before all thus instant listening. I had December on cassette and then CD.
The songs the piano the artistry that woke my soul the 1st time saved my soul many times.
We lost a true artist today.
I hope he realized how much love he spread. ❤
most stunning arrangement ever. Could listen all day
ha....there are so many that fit that label-my personal fave is the first song on autumn
Love love love ❤️ Thank you for your beautiful gifts to this world 💕
Thank you George Winston! It's pure joy!
George you have been the most inspirational muscal force in my life since I first heard you when I was 12. I was struck by the sincerity and profoundly simple yet complex musical scapes you painted for me to explore for myself with my own music and my own life's journey. I thank you for your humble, humorous, beautiful performances and being. Mahalo💜
George Winston is the best Pianist in the world in 2022.
Gorgeous pedal play here...like a chorus of bells on a frozen plain. Magnificent.
My favorite song in the whole "wild" world. Towards the end, the notes capture the effect of a fluttering heart FILLED w/ joy. ❤️
This is my mother’s favorite song. I love it now, too.
in 2021 still good
I'd love to see him perform in concert but I don't like to cry in public. This song moves me to tears.
Rest in peace, George Winston.
My friend say him play in Tokyo....awesome!
Joy to the world, the Lord has come, and will come...please know him... so soon.
This is one of my favorite songs ever. JS Bach.
I never forgot you lynne Frederick , or you playing george winston for me back in 1987, at Sherwood hall...
So happy to hear this again after so many years. Lovely
I used this song when welcoming a wedding guest. Thanks to you, it was a wonderful ceremony.
The song that plays on Boston's Christmas Station Magic 106.7 almost annoyingly EVERY NIGHT AT 12AM! It make me wanna cry honestly!
Thank you! Haven't listened to this in a while. A favorite of mine.
I used to listen to this every day. ❤
Got something in my eye. Both of them.
I have always loved this. SO much.
Simply divine! ♥♥♥
Most beautiful.
Awesome!
I'm playing this rn it's so awesome.
beautiful
Your tunes always inspire me to make more! Excellent! 💚❣️💕❤️🌟✨
Just, Wow.
This is my calming song. It remind me of the time spent with my love CIII in Golden CO. Circa 1990.
Heavenly
I always have your music on repeat! Such great ideas, makes me want to get back in the studio asap. Fantastic! 😍💙
아 노래 너무좋네요 빨리 피아노로 나도치고싶엉~
Happy New Year !!!
Just listened to an imitation of G.W.... it was missing the present grace in the fingers.... "Bach Joy of Man's Desires".... 400 years later echos well through George's hands.
It actually is a remake of a remake. The one that invented this happier version of Bach's composition: Jesus joy of man's desiring was David Qualey. Here's the original remake that Winston borrowed to rearrange it for piano with a couple of own ideas that he added: th-cam.com/video/pEemo9i-sCI/w-d-xo.html
The first honour belongs to Bach, the second to David Qualey and the third to George Winston.
Thank you!

This is what my middle name is named for!
There are people everywhere in search for true inner peace and joy that will last for eternity, but it can only be found in Jesus Christ. Jesus loves you more than you could ever know and He wants to give you this peace. I am sharing my best friend's story with you in hopes that you will come to know Jesus Christ and find real peace and comfort in your soul. God bless you.
Precious Memories-By Sonya Lakey
Family Story
Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day.
My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening.
That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of
a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are.
Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you.
His Story
Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God.
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23)
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12)
He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell.
“For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price]
“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8)
Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today!
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)
Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him.
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13)
“...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b)
Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour!
“And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28)
Your Story
What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son.
The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven.
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6)
We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready?
“...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b)
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13)
“(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c)
