Who better to write an authoritative yet fascinating introduction to flute playing than Sir James Galway whose glittering career extends from principal flute in the Berlin Philharmonic to the top of the international pop music charts? His unique advice and experience is brought to bear on the problems and techniques of learning, practicing and playing - in solo, ensemble, at home, in concert and in the recording studio.
Sir James Galway has played with Sadler's Wells Opera, Covent Garden Opera, the London Symphony Orchestra and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra under Herbert von Karajan where he was principal flute. In addition to his performances of the standard classical repertoire, he is equally at home with contemporary and popular music. He still performs regularly and is one of the world's best-known flute players. His recordings have sold over 30 million copies.
