Sir James Galway is a virtuoso flute player from Belfast, Northern Ireland, nicknamed "The Man With the Golden Flute". For more information visit his site: jamesgalway.com/ JamesGalwayF... / sir_j_galway
Dear fellow, it's incredible our master voice intonation warm and peaceful. I'm never tired hearing his lessons. These wonderful seeds of teaching spreads here in Brasil. Thanks a lot!!!
So beautiful and inspiring. Am back playing after a very long break. I had a cassette tape (giving my age away!) with Sir James Galway playing. I listened to it so much , I wore it out. If I get a tone and technique only half as good I’d be chuffed. Thank you, Sir, for inspiration and teaching 🙂🎶🎼
Great advice from the magnificent Sir James! I was lucky enough to meet him in person at his last show at Aberdeen's Music Hall a couple of years ago. It was my dream to learn the flute as a child and 25 years later I'm still playing! I hope to see you again on your next visit to Scotland :-)
Great advice from Sir James. I have met him 4 times and every time he keeps inspiring me. The last time I met him in England at Ely Cathedral with my son. He took a photo with us. I will always remember the day!
I hold my flute the way Sir Galway holds the flute. I never hold my flute straight across but somewhat downward, I also use the vibrato the way Sir Galway does. Sir Galway is one of my flute heroes.
There's no harm in praying to the Lord to help make you a good flutist either, or to thank Him for making you into one, like He has surely done to you, Sir James Galway. Thank you so much for your music.
Dear Mr. Galway. I am one of your biggest fans. My playing was inspired mainly by you in the 80's. You were playing on Albert Cooper flutes at the time and the closest I could get was a Brannen-Cooper flute. Then you switch to Muramatsu and now others. With all of your worldly knowledge and prowess, you still droop your left pinky. Tssk, tssk.
Because of you I learned about the octave exercise on the headjoint and I want to thank you for that. I've had my flute a week and I tried it yesterday and could not get it but I could today. I also learned about looking at the embouchure in the mirror and that's helped a ton. I'm coming from trumpet playing and have a bit of a "teardrop" on my upper lip so I've found I can get a nice small aperture by going just to the side. And the octave exercise works now! I can't say I was that great at trumpet playing but I was able to make decent money at it. People seemed to think I sounded good enough. I just got tired of the trumpet, that's all. I'm going to watch all of your teaching videos I can find.
"...You'll see people normally practice like this" then proceed shredding the flute til it get pregnant. Sir, I'm quite sure I haven't seen any flutist played like that before

Don't mistake feeling overwhelmed by the task itself and the relative lack of resources with ignorance of its importance! I wasn't born yesterday. We must do the best we can with the bodies and resources we are given.
Not mention I feel like I started playing flute too late in my life. I should have kept playing in my teens when I had my first flute, but gave up due to the stresses of school and other factors. TH-cam with all its free content and flute teachers came late to the game. Also the fact I lived in a building for a good deal of my life where playing the flute would have caused other neighbours complaining. Too many factors to not dismiss. Mind, body, financial situation, where you live, I could go on. Practice though does go a long ways to improve what you can do though. It might not be ideal or perfect but I've tried accepting some of my limitations. Its a struggle but I guess I'm drawn to it for the added challenge.
+Ghasp Cha La mayoría de material importante de flauta esta en ingles, francés y aleman, familiarizase con esos idiomas es importante, el ingles no es tan difícil, personalmente no hablo francés y los textos para flauta no traducidos son un lío, pero lentamente vas cogiendo los idiomas, y igual recuerda que es música, es el arte de escuchar entonces si te va bien en música, probablemente te puede ir bien el los idiomas
edap Presumably for his playing. The British "knight" people for many things including artistic achievements, service in war, inventing new medicine, or developing theories about gravity *Sir Issac Newton
I took James's advice very serious and practiced even some of the tunes he plays to. - Here's an example of how close I came to imitate his wonderful talent without a flute: app.box.com/s/y8s8jdqbxibdbo813x22ftborzdnqmy7 I must warn you... because I did some big mistakes in this piece, in that I did not exactly follow James lead, but injected some "perverse deviations" into it... which totally mugged up the whole piece! Please pardon me, good James! I suppose these type of flaws happen to all beginners... like me.
Mozart to student: 'You must practice your scales!' Student to Mozart: 'You didn't practice scales!' Mozart to student: 'You are not Mozart!' Read this somewhere in a book..
GOD can actually turn anyone to a beautiful player, Jesus said without Him, we can do NOTHING. Jesus gives knowledge, don't mock God that you have to turn yourself into a beautiful player. We should give Jesus all the glory.
Anybody who thinks they can be a professional musician without many hours of hard work is kidding themselves. Learn to enjoy the work. The style comes from the work.
Such a grandfatherly type figure for all flutists! I have followed him for many years!
He’s our flute grandpa/God.
Ikr! He seems really wise and in peace.
He is father of flute ,: 0

I cannot tell you how much you inspire me - if I ever make it as a professional flute player I'm blaming you for making me want to practice
Most flute players just play and don't have a "beautiful" tone. James Galway's tone is unique and so beautiful 😊👍
Sir James...the most amazing flutist/teacher alive!!!!
Thank You, Sir James Galway, very very much
So beautiful and inspiring. Am back playing after a very long break. I had a cassette tape (giving my age away!) with Sir James Galway playing. I listened to it so much , I wore it out. If I get a tone and technique only half as good I’d be chuffed. Thank you, Sir, for inspiration and teaching 🙂🎶🎼
His vibrato is so soothing!🙏🏻🙏🏻
You inspire me Sir James....God bless you!
So important, as Mr G says, ...the purpose of the study ...and its inherent musicality...not just getting quick.
Three things you need to do..#1-practice...#2-practice and #3-practice..
I have been following him since I was 15. This is a great experience to learn from.
oh wow. I had no idea Sir Galway had these great teaching videos. So wonderful!

Musical genius !
I have been playing the Chinese flute from sewer pipes all my life. And now a man plays the gold flute. Oh my God...
Daniel Voltolini . Sir James , grazie di tutto.

Boa noite!!!!
Seria bom que os vídeos tivessem legenda em português.
Querido Robinson, quando ouço nosso Mestre, parece que soa em português. Lembra o Juvenal Dias, meu Mestre e amigo em BH.
Não tem com legenda
as is the study or work performed?
A Q for you, how do you stop the high notes being too shrill???
most of the things he mentions, also are true for violin.
Sir what is the scale no.1 by C flute
"...You'll see people normally practice like this" then proceed shredding the flute til it get pregnant. Sir, I'm quite sure I haven't seen any flutist played like that before

Importance of practice.
Which is from book?
Who did the subtitle? Doesn't know Chopin (shop and) lol
Algorithms these days aren't educated that much in musical history, I guess.
What's the book that Sir. James using?
+Xiaoyi Wang imslp.org/wiki/Complete_Flute_Method_%28Taffanel,_Paul%29
5th part
What about those "mois" exercises he talks about? I can't seem to find the right spelling
Marcel Moyse
what book is he using?
Taffenel and Gaubert
i think that this practise for masterclass student
Flat on the low C; some of the phrasing opportunities otherwise lost if too fast or if tempo not varied
What's the name of the song he plays at the beginning???
No entiendo English :(

Lovely, how long have you been playing?

Is he talking about a lot of work here...I hear a lot of younger folk telling me it's all enjoyment ....and developing your own style????
