NEW SHOW TIME ADDED! Now you can choose 3pm or 7pm concerts!
Seven-time Grammy®-winning saxophonist Paul Winter, with the Paul Winter Consort, will return to celebrate the Winter Solstice on Saturday, December 21st at 7:00 pm at Saint James Place, 352 Main Street, Great Barrington, MA.
A uniquely intimate solstice celebration, in contrast to the large-scale productions done for many years in the Cathedral of Saint John the Divine in New York, it promises to deliver everything audiences have come to love and expect. Quoting from Paul Winter, “While we will not have all the dancers and theatrical effects that were possible in the world’s largest Cathedral, we will have all the essence of our solstice music, and we will feature, as always, the beloved voice of Theresa Thomason, who has been the ‘star’ of our solstice celebrations for over 25 years.”
Paul Winter says: “I was captivated by Saint James Place. The acoustics are heavenly, and the architecture is stunning. With seating for [250], it is possibly the most exquisite small concert hall I’ve ever seen.”
The Consort will feature vocalist Theresa Thomason, Eugene Friesen on cello, Bulgarian bassist Peter Slavov, Brazilion pianist Henrique Eisenmann, Brazilian drummer Rogério Boccato, and Paul Winter on soprano sax.
Tickets are $75.00.
