Absolutely gorgeous! I was so lucky to see and hear Sir James and Lady Galway in concert in Morristown NJ shortly before the pandemic. Exquisite playing, of course, funny and helpful commentary, and such kindness toward their fans after the performance. I am a flutist, too, you see. Sir James, meeting you and Lady Galway is one of the highlights of my lifw.
Personne, je crois, ne parle ici du génie de Claude Bolling, pour avoir su marier la touche jazzistique des compositions de cette suite avec un vrai flûtiste classique, Jean-Pierre Rampal, sans que ce dernier doive renoncer à son jeu habituel. Le résultat est aussi beau que vous l'entendez. Un grand plaisir d'entendre James Galway se joindre au mouvement avec ses timbres «qu'on mangerait» et son phrasé magnifique 🙏💚
저는 소설가입니다. 취미로 플륫을 시작했는데 유튜브를 통해 뵙게 되었습니다. 편안하고 아름다운 연주 잘 들었습니다. 저도 열심히 연습해서 멋진 연주자가 되겠습니다. 듣기만 했는데도 개인레슨 받은 듯 얻어가는 그 무엇이 있군요. 진심으로 멋지다는 인사로 마무리하겠습니다. ♡
I love this piece. My father was a professional Flautist, and played it. I played for years...and sometimes pull it back out and play. Galway is incredible! Sound, control, technique. Only Jean-Pierre Rampal was comparatively as good a player.
Amy Reuben I didn’t care that much for Rampal but that may have been the fault of the guy who wrote the liner notes. He raved about Rampal’s performance of some Telemann (sonatas?) but they were a plain reading with not even a hint of barque style. Frans Brüggen literally blew him away when it came to performance vs, reading all the notes correctly
My Lord is trembling with joy . The gentle souls of this audiences have already reached God. I pray that all of you have glory and blessing！ Take care ❗
