If any of you have ever read his book about his life story, he tells about why he plays this song at every performance. It is his prayer of thanks back to God for giving him the gift of playing the flute. He says every single note is a prayer he sends straight to God. No wonder it is filled with such passion and emotion!
James Galway paved my entire life's journey. He was my inspiration since I was about 11, when I started playing the flute. I had his tape (haha) and listened endlessly. It got me through some terrible times in my life. I didn't have money for lessons and just mimicked his techniques down to every breath. 30 years later, I've retired as a professional musician. I came across this video today and thought... maybe my soul needs to play again. His music never gets any less beautiful.
Te abrazo en tu experiencia, me ha pasado parecido , del Maestro Galway he sentido el vibrato y su expresión, su pureza. También tras 25 años de Orquesta, tocando tanto piccolo como Flauta solista en Vitoria - Gasteiz , por daños en la cóclea ( demasiado piccolo ) tocar estos temas y volver a verlo aquí , es un regalo para el Corazón. Muchas Gracias. www.youtube.com/@Gandarwa-ri9kd
Yes I've been a flute player for 4 years and this has absolutely brought tears to my eyes. It is so beautiful. His vibrato and strength to hit the high notes with balance set it off, as well as the accompanying piano player gracefully striking the low notes.
I am so moved by all the comments. My Dad listened to Galway over and over again as he lay dying. He had an eclectic taste in music and I was surprised that Galway's flute was what he needed to hear as his last musical selection on earth. Now, both listening to the music and reading the comments I understand.
I randomly listened to a radio programme Sir James made about penny whistles some 20yrs ago, and that started a musical journey that led to me being able to play this proficiently on the flute. A brilliant man.
@flip inheck Ross didn't write anything. She heard the tune. The origin of the tune is unknown, but all traces of it were Irish. As you said, don't comment if you don't know what you are talking about. Actually the first time is OK, but once there is disagreement, go look it up.
Am I the only one that can't go a day without listening to this exact recording about 14 times?? This is my goal in life. I wanna develop my own amazingly stunning style that captures people's hearts like James Galway.
Most of my life I keep his flute music in my car. Then when I practice my flute I listen to it so I have listened to it a lot and it makes me feel good and helps me to play better
The standard bearer on his instrument. He plays many other styles of music with just as much control and prowess. He is a God gifted musician, and you can't teach that. Thank you Mr. Galway for sharing your art with us for all of these years. Godspeed and may you be blessed.
Stunning sound, so obvious even from a UA-cam video. No virtuosity to hide behind in this piece either. Just pure liquid gold is flowing out of his (golden!) flute. I'm speechless. Some musicians are just so far above the rest.
Classical music is truly the most skill of them all even though it is the most gentle, the virbrato is so obvious and clear, the tone is gentle yet overpowering, i always listen to this when i wanna improve my sound
MY GRANDDAUGHTER SCARLETT IS 7 AND JUST STARTED PLAYING THE FLUTE AM SO PROUD OF YOU ❤️ SCARLETT YOU HAVE A PASSION FOR EVERYTHING AND I LOVE YOU 🥰 AND YOUR LITTLE SISTER ELEANOR
Magistral , tocado en Fa , es delicioso para subir a 2ª octava, una joya! Su vibrato es una escuela impresionantemente bella de la que hemos bebido miles de flautistas en todo el planeta. Oirle es como escuchar a Maria Callas dentro de una flauta, quizás algo como la fabula de Syrinx . Un placer seguir escuchando su flauta Maestro.
The tremolo on that high note at the final crescendo, have played before and that is insanely hard. The whole song is so smooth, flowing and beautiful.
this song has important meaning to me one of my favorite flute professors former mentor died of cancer and my flute choir played this piece for her honor the day of her burial its a very beautiful song...
I have played flute now for 60 years and still love to play it. James Galway is my flute idol. His music is so beautiful just makes tears come to my eyes. The Lord has truly blessed him and others with his music.
The greatest compliment I ever received was having one of the greatest orchestral directors in my country tell me that my tone and vibrato was as good as James Galway. I don't believe him of course, but it definitely has stuck with me.
This man is really great. I’ve been listening to him for over 40 years, and it’s still magic! The Spirit comes to us thanks to these incredible moments of grace that Sir Galway is accustomed to! Thank you! Cet homme est vraiment génial. Cela fait plus de 40 que je l'écoute, et c'est toujours la magie ! L'Esprit vient à nous grâce à ces incroyables moments de grâce dont Sir Galway est coutumier ! Merci !😇
This holds such happy tearful memories for me, when our eldest Son then aged 8, (he is now 37yrs) asked the Hotel in Kinsale, Ireland where we were having Dinner to play this on the Piano for his late Father and myself. James Galway a favourite of my late Husband. Many thanks for the memory revisited.
This has really made me wanna cry...soul-touching melody, soul-touching performance of a musical instrument which can easily touch your heart, especially when you have someone in your heart, and that boy is actually your own ‘Danny boy’. Really miss him.
That jump to the high A near the end.....spectacular! Sir James has the most glorious tone. He's been my favorite flute player since I was a little kid, and my inspiration to keep playing today.
Saw him once a Prom at the Royal Albert Hall. Looks like this clip is the RAH. What a talent. Great performance, great personality. His sound is unique and beautiful.
Danny boy is one of those tunes you play by feeling. I play Danny boy the same way. I don't hold a temple and expand the notes where it is needed giving emphasis. Well done James. This tune plays well on recorder. I slightly delay the notes leading to the high A and leave a little room for vibrato on the high A. So I give vibrato from C to high A. You know when you play it well you get a chill down your spine. Perhaps that's the time you are raising the spirits and they have come to listen. Danny boy is one of those magic tunes that does this. I played this where other musician played and when they sang my note was extended and I could here I skipped a beat but not really. The piano player also had to keep in sync with James. I'm not sure if anyone knows what I mean. I try not to be mechanical.
Dear Mr. Galway. Sitting home sharing your music with our grandson. Reflecting on the days when you were a customer of "Joe and Moes" restaurant and I was the Chef. You were always kind and your wife was so kind too. I recal when you received the jacket with the stripes indecating the years you had been a guest. God bless you. Larry Stull, Stafford, Va.
Parce que la vie offre de belles choses; Dany boy me rappelle mon adolescence. Habitant la campagne nous n'avions de cesse, mon Cousin et moi d'admirer les champs de blés que le vent caressait, faisant penser à une touffe de cheveux blonds. Le temps de la moisson était venu. C'est un moment magique où tout se dore et certaines extrémités des champs deviennent cuivrées. Alors à un moment précis de la journée, les rayons obliques transforment ce paysage en une contrée onirique reflétant le métal si précieux. Alors nous sortions un disque de James Galway jouant Danny Boy, et sur un vieux manche disque, nous passions les cinq minutes à regarder ce coucher de soleil lorsque le ciel se pare de rouge et de rose comme des bras vaporeux nous faisant signe de venir avec ses anges ! Le spectacle était unique. Ensuite les moissonneuses batteuses rentraient en action. Nous fermions la porte fenêtre et rangions notre 33 tours de Galway dans sa pochette jusqu'à....demain. Nous étions heureux et cette vue d'un simple champs de blé et la musique de Galway nous suffisaient, et nous rendaient heureux. C'était le clin d'oeil du créateur, cinq minutes d'un rêve qui recommençait chaque jour à la même heure pendant quelques semaines. Nous parcourions alors tous les champs avec notre manche disque et James à la flûte. Voilà c'était du bonheur, si simple....On n'avait pas besoin de montre pour savoir qu'il était temps de rentrer. Qu'importe demain on remettait ça
He was my inspiration as I slowly grasped the concept of playing the flute and piccolo. They have given me half a lifetime of joy. Thank you Sir James.
🇧🇬💐EVERY TIME I HEARD YOU WITH GREAT PLEASURE!!!🍀 🐘🍀 🌹I CAN SEE THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN!!!!!🍀🐘🍀 🏵BRAWISSISSISSIMO 👌MAESTRO GALWAY!!!!!🍀🐘🍀 🌺BRAWISSISSISSIMO!!!🍀🐘🍀🎼🍀🎶🍀🎵🍀🦉
There have been so many vocal versions of this famous song, but somehow it's too beautiful a melody to be sung, and only a flute, preferably the great James Galway's, does it justice, to my mind.
Merry Christmas and a happy new year, I was lucky enough to see James Gallway twice, once in the early 1980s and again near the end of the 80s. I actually seen him around 86/7 doing lunch time concert in Newcastle City hall twice too. I wish I had been older so I could appreciate his genius more, my Aunty Mourney and Uncle Ian took me the first time in Ireland. Absolutely beautiful flautist. My playing is still nowhere near this level.
The tale within the lyrics can boost our emotions to high heaven. In short, a loving person has to travel far away for a long time. The music tells the pain of a broken heart.
I met him back in 1980 at Dantes, in the San Fernando Valley. He was amazing. He sat our table and wore my boyfriends cowboy hat. And he was a jokester just like I would think a Leprecaun would be.
The Land of Green Grass, Golden Sands by Solitude Mountains,The drifting Blue Smoke of the Humble Turf Fire this music will bring you to Ireland and all around the World 🙂👍
This man is the epitome of a flute player. A stunning performance of a favourite air. Many thanks Sir James (and yes ... what is this "thumbs down" bit?).
I absolutely adore James Galway. He is my flute idol and I'm sure that opinion is shared by many others. His tone control is stellar and his performances are always out of this world. I find it fascinating how he keeps the same volume from the low register to the high register through his entire performance. His virtuosity on the flute is something I truly admire and hope to come close to one day. I really hope I can meet him in the future and seek out his musical advice and wisdom. Thanks, Sir James Galway for always delivering a phenomenal performance! ~EC~

I love your post !
People don’t realize how much skill that takes- I am amazing by the intonation quality the tone the timbre wow- he really knows what he is doing.
Only flute players (and students) will appreciate the work that needs to be put on.
My sons self teaching himself to play the flute started learning the tin whisle first his amazing playing them xx
Heaven, for anyone who loves the flute, or loves music, and I think Galway never sounded more beautiful than this performance.
Yes I've been a flute player for 4 years and this has absolutely brought tears to my eyes. It is so beautiful. His vibrato and strength to hit the high notes with balance set it off, as well as the accompanying piano player gracefully striking the low notes.
Willa Green : Ms. Will a you are so right. Thank you for sharing.
@@nelidamolver6126 Ah yes..it's like playing in a church and then being asked to play in a noisy sitting room!
I played the flute 5 grade til 12th, I miss it! With having Muscular dystrophy I am unable to now. I enjoy listening to Sir Galway
Angela Huss Is good you keep enjoying okay there : -D
何度聴いても、心が浄化され、目が潤んできます。またフルートを吹こうと思います。
楽器は、演奏する人の心を映し出すものですね。
フルートが歌っています。

He hits the high notes so gently. Truly love his rich low tones.Isnt it beautiful.
This .... sounds better than my awesome PVC 6-hole flute I made out of a piece of pipe I found under a tree and an old wine cork that's for sure.

私はあなたの奏でる音色が大好きです。あなたが生み出す音楽は最高です。本当に素敵でいつも感動します。その中でもダニーボーイは本当に本当に大好きです。曲の意味とは違うかもしれませんが、私には何だか生き物のぬくもりを感じます。温かい優しさです。
まだ若かった頃、教室の先生に教えていただき、どなたとも違う、その音色にすっかり魅了されておりました。荘厳な温かい低音 星が流れて消えゆくような澄んだ高音の ピアニシモ…。素人ながら、音楽の内側に生きていた頃の 憧れと尊敬を思い出しました。私がいくつになっても、寄り添って下さる大切な音色です。
私の連れともう20年以上前に、コンサートへ行きアンコールアンコール止まらず最後の最後ので、この曲でした、あまり地も美しくて感動で涙が止まりませんでした。その連れとも、縁がなく結婚を約束して20年、待ちましたが、結婚は、できませんでした。不思議な物ですね。20年も連れ沿いながら、一緒にならないとは。でも、こうしてゴールウェイさんのフルート演奏曲は、それぞれの場所で、あの時の感動を胸に思いながら聴いていることでしょうね。
I randomly listened to a radio programme Sir James made about penny whistles some 20yrs ago, and that started a musical journey that led to me being able to play this proficiently on the flute. A brilliant man.
辛くなったらここに来るようにしています。
ゴールウェイの音を聴くだけで気持ちが浄化されます。
An absolute inspiration. I couldn't ever imagine being a flute player, hearing this and not aspiring to sound like James.
אדם וחלילן דגול. מעריצה זה שנים.
@som Slovaak Do you really need to troll people in a sweet, friendly conversation like this one? Think about it.
@som Slovaak Ich hatte noch nie einen Hamburger in Hamburg.
@som Slovaak 🤣 At least I got the "w" and the exclamation point. Here's your sheep🐏 for sheeple.
Me: plays flute pretty ok
James Galway: hold my head joint
SCHMUCK !!
I was at this concert. Well the one he did at Kennedy Center. He was amazing. 15 minute standing ovation
Steven Fox I watched him at the Kennedy Center too, so beautiful. Something I will never forget.
@Mr. Flute Guy words can barely describe it
Quite simply the greatest flute player the world has ever seen . And possibly the best the world will ever know GSTK
The greatest-ever flautist was Jean-Pierre Rampal: without a shadow of a doubt.
Quite simply the best there is. This was tear jerker to be sure. What a Master of the flute!
Who can resist this beautiful Irish song, especially when performed by James Galway?
the song is English by Fredrick Weatherly
so beautifully played. how is it possible that 21 persons gave the thumbs down??? I'll give 21 thumbs up to erase those.
Lol your comment has 21 likes xD
Envy
That's how it is with music...sad to say.
Perhaps because the meter is so upbeat? That is certainly my disappointment (though no thumb-down)
These persons may be deaf and for sur no musicians
Thanks to Mr Galway, I will continue playing my flute, in despite of my 80 years.
¡So incredible and celestial!
Love!

はじめて演奏を聞いて感動し涙流した演奏です、いつきいてもほんとに素敵です心が安らぎます、ありがとうございます
I walked down the aisle with my daddy to this. God rest and bless his lovely soul x
James Galway is the best that ever graced the earth. He is my inspiration to press on and practice the flute every day!
Classical music is truly the most skill of them all even though it is the most gentle, the virbrato is so obvious and clear, the tone is gentle yet overpowering, i always listen to this when i wanna improve my sound
i don't know if i should cry because it's beautiful
or cry because I'll probably never be that good.
I'll probably do both

高校生の時にゴールウェイのフルートを聴いて、音大でフルートを勉強したいと思いました。それが良かったのか悪かったかはわかりませんが…とにかく影響力と個性のある、唯一無二な素晴らしいフルーティストだと、これを見てあらためて思いました。

I wish I could play like that I've been playing a flute for more than three years now and I sound nothing like this it's just amazing
This is the melody that taught me to love slow music.
