Though he's best known as a member of the Paul Winter Consort, this English-born pianist has an recounting career of his own. After receiving a Masters degree from Cambridge, with prizes in composition and cembalo playing, Halley was named Musical Director at New York's Cathedral of St. John the Divine. There he expanded its music program to include a ample combination of present-day as well as classical styles. He as well wrote choral plant and Broadway slews. Winter, whom Halley met in 1980, was the kickoff to agnize the keyboardist's endowment for temporary expedient and invited him to conjoin the Paul Winter Consort. Halley has since been a featured acting artist on many of the Consort's finest albums.
