Album Description
SIR JAMES GALWAY AT HIS BEST - COLORFUL AND JOYFUL LISTENING FOR EVERYONE!

Sir James Galway, "the undisputed monarch of the flute" (Dallas Star-Tele­gram), teams up with Catrin Finch, "the queen of harps" (Classic FM Magazine), and his wife, accomplished flutist Lady Jeanne Galway, for a joint Mozart extravaganza. My Magic Flute features a new recording of Mozart’s Concerto for Flute and Harp, plus all-new arrangements of some of Mozart’s most popular instrumental and vocal tunes - three top virtuosos unveiling their beautiful sound and breathtaking technique all at once.

Sir James and Lady Galway present "The Magic Flutes" – a journey through the works of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, devised and specially arranged for two solo flutes and orchestra by David Overton.

Customer Reviews

Magical!!!
James Galway recordings are always a treat. "My Magic Flute" contains a beautiful recording of Mozart's Flute and Harp concerto, as well as transcriptions of the slow movement of Piano Concerto No.21 (Elvira Madigan), an aria from Zaide, and Rondo alla Turca, wonderfully arranged for flute and orchestra. But the real gem is "The Magic Flutes", an arrangement of Mozart melodies from his vast ouput (symphonies, concertos, operas) expertly arranged for James and Jeanne Galway (his wife) and orchestra. It reminds me of a "Hooked on Classics (Mozart)", but only so much better!!! Pure enchantment. Five solid stars!!!!

Premier Flutist Playing His Premier Composer
