As the lead singer
and bassist of the band bearing his last name, Kip Winger rode the '80s
pop-metal explosion with Alice Cooper first and then in the wildly successful
‘80s/’90s band of his namesake, Winger, before beginning a solo career in the
late '90s.Tragically, just after Winger had finished his debut solo effort
"Thisconversationseemslikeadream", his wife, was killed in a car
accident; still, Winger managed to support the album with a solo acoustic tour.
An acoustic album of past favorites, "Down Incognito" was then
released in 1999. Winger followed it with his second proper solo album, 2000's
"Songs from the Ocean Floor", which addressed his grief over the loss
of his wife. After a long hiatus with his solo work, Kip Winger returned with
"From the Moon to the Sun" in 2008: an extensive body of work that
includes everything from straight up heavy & dark to absolutely soft &
beautiful.
More recently
Winger has enjoyed solo success composing classical music. Choreographer Christopher
Wheeldon created the ballet "Ghosts", based on a piece Kip
wrote, which premiered at the San Francisco Ballet on February 9,
2010. The ballet was a hit and was brought back for a second season in 2010.
Winger then composed a four-part work entitled "Conversations with Nijinsky",
intended to celebrate the life of ballet dancer and choreographer Vaslav
Nijinsky. A recording of the piece performed by the San Francisco Ballet
Orchestra on the album C.F. Kip Winger: Conversations with
Nijinsky reached the top of the traditional classical category on
the Billboard music charts. “Conversations with Nijinsky” was also
nominated in the Best Classical Contemporary Composition category at
the 59th Annual Grammy Awards.
This set is an
unmissable occasion to get to know in depth the abilities and art of one of
today’s music greats!
