what promises to be
one of the most excit
ing concerts ever of
fered by the College
Union I
Paul Winter is a
very impressive class
of its own in the
world of music. Their
music gives an experi
ence, not a concert.
They take tidbits
from several musical
forms using more than
30 instruments to
create a sound which
seems to mesh classi
cal, oriental, jazz,
rock, African, and
folk music.
'the Paul Winter Con
sort is invigorating
and thrilling, moving
and humanistic, de
manding but never tax
ing. Their scope is
as wide as inner man
can stretch."—The
Philadelphia' Evening
Bulletin
'The Consort has har
nessed the power of
amplification and put
it at the service of
musical form, imagi
nation and fascina
ting instrumental
color."—The Washing
ton Post
"Winter Consort was
clockwork: perfect
and complete. They
were like a single
mind, acting as one
entity, as if light
moving through a
prism, one source
creating many col
ors ."—Syracuse Uni
versity
"The Winter Con
sort ' s appearance drew
the greatest student
response of any at
traction on the 1973-
74 concert series."—
