Perhaps hearing someone “tickling the ivories” isn’t exactly your idea of a night on the town. For those in the know, however, George Winston solo performances are an event unto their own. Known mostly for his earlier (and better-selling) works which chronicle the changing seasons, he also tributes such disparate artists as the Doors and the late Vince Guaraldi. One of the best-selling artists on the Windham Hill Records label and one of the most consistent live performers around, this multi-instrumentalist shows depth beyond the all too limiting New Age tag. Do yourself and others a favor and remember to turn your phone off. You’ll thank me later. 1013 K Street, www.georgewinston.com.
