Great Music at St. Gregory’s is partnering with Festival of the Arts BOCA to present Paul Winter and his group, The Paul Winter Consort.
Paul and his Consort have performed around the world, from New York’s Carnegie Hall to the Miho Museum in Japan. One of the earliest exponent’s of world music, the group has also pioneered a new genre of “earth music,” (described as “ecological jazz” by fans in Russia), interweaving classical, jazz, and world music elements with voices from what Winter calls “the greatest symphony of the earth.”
Since 1980, Paul and the Consort have been artists-in-residence at the world’s largest gothic cathedral, New York’s The Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine, where they have presented over 100 special events, including the annual Winter and Summer Solstice Celebrations, Carnival for the Rainforest, and their ecological mass, Missa Gaia/Earth Mass, which is performed annually each October as part of the Cathedral’s Feast of St. Francis.
