View Calendar for information about all tonight's events (all 73 of 'em). George Winston [BIG PIANIST] There is a certain segment of the population for whom solo piano is just never going to work; it's always going to put them to sleep. And if solo piano puts you to sleep, then the low-key compositions on George Winston's iconic 1982 LP, December, is definitely going to equal naptime. But Winston's no one-trick pony, nor is he—as he is often tagged—a New Age artist. He's a slightly indulgent piano whiz who has, in recent years, dabbled in everything from the Doors to ragtime to Peanuts theme songs. In fact, he's done two discs of Vince Guaraldi's classic Peanuts tunes—the most recent being this year's Love Will Come: The Music of Vince Guaraldi, Volume 2—making him a hero to cartoon geeks like myself. I'm not saying George Winston's solo piano is going to have you throwing bras, but jeez, don't call him New Age. CASEY JARMAN. Aladdin Theater, 3017 SE Milwaukie Ave., 234-9694.Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, Lulacruza See Thursday listing. Wonder Ballroom, 128 NE Russell St., 284-8686. |
