Galway, James

    0.04 sec.

Galway, James (1939- )

Irish flautist, born in Belfast. He played with the London Symphony Orchestra in 1966, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra 1967-69, and was principal flautist with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra 1969-75 before taking up a solo career. He also has a profile outside classical music because of his popular recordings, such as the cover of John Denver's ‘Annie's Song’ in 1978. Recent popular recordings are Celtic Legends (1997), Winter's Crossing (1998) with Phil Coulter, Music for my Little Friends and A Song of Home: An American Musical Journey (both 2002). Galway has done much to popularize the flute in the 20th century. He was knighted in 2001.
