Musicians

Norma Winstone - voice
John Taylor - piano

There are some musical relationships that are just sublime. Vocalist Norma Winstone has had innumerable musical partnerships over her nearly 50-year career but none have lastest as long or have been as fruitful as the one with pianist John Taylor. The duo’s recording Like Song, Like Weather from 1996 found them reunited performing standards and recreations of tunes by their contemporaries, including Steve Swallow, Paul Bley and Kenny Wheeler, with lyrics written by Winstone herself.
