The seven-time Grammy-winning Paul Winter Consort, with beloved vocalist Theresa Thomason, will present the timeless music of their legendary Winter Solstice Celebration, in a joyous and profound celebration of this season of renewal and the greater family of life.

For the past four decades, Paul and the Consort have presented their annual Winter Solstice Celebration in the world's largest Cathedral, New York's St. John the Divine, in an event that became New York's holiday alternative to The Nutcracker and Radio City's Christmas Spectacular.

The Consort will include Paul Winter on soprano sax, cellist Eugene Friesen, Brazilian pianist Henrique Eisenmann, Bulgarian bassist Peter Slavov, Brazilian drummer Rogerio Boccato, and the renowned voice of Theresa Thomason.
