George Winston refers to himself as a “rural folk” pianist and has been enchanting listeners for decades with albums like “Autumn,” “Winter into Spring,” “December” and “Summer.” His most recent release is “Restless Winds,” which includes his takes on songs by Sam Cooke, George Gershwin, Stephen Stills and The Doors. You have two chances to see him this weekend in Arundel at a pair of limited-capacity, seated shows.
