James Galway

Synopsis

From 1975-85, flautist James Galway was continually in the public eye. He widened the audience for classical music and, to the purists' horror, added unashamedly popular music to his repertoire. Since then, he has tired of hell-raising and the publicity circus and is more eager than ever to perfect and to communicate his art. Galway talks with disarming frankness about his life and his music and is seen teaching, rehearsing and performing.
