Oh, no! George Winston died, at only 74. The only obit I’ve seen so far is the NYT, and I’m not on the right device to pull up the archive for people.
Pianist, best known album is probably “December”, Windham Hill.
Here ya go…along with a link to his Velveteen Rabbit score.
Oh, very sad to hear. I had both December and Autumn on cassette back in the 80s. I also remember going for a facial about a decade later and December was on the aesthetician’s playlist along with Enya.

The Afterlife released a picture of Mr. Robertson:
Only the good die young.
Robertson dead?
It’s a good day!

(@orenwolf - has something changed here at BBS / Discourse? This link always used to start the video at 15secs in. When I paste it into a browser at YT it opens the video, starting at 15 secs. Here on BBS/Discourse, the last two times I tried it, it starts the video at the start.)
I had heard much - and was familiar with some - of his music, but had no idea who he was.
Loved his voice and prose.
