Notă biografică
Sir James Galway , nicknamed "the man with the golden flute," is widely regarded as both a supreme interpreter of the classical flute repertoire and a consummate entertainer whose appeal crosses all musical boundaries. As the most televised and recorded classical artist performing today, Sir James has made himself a legend, a modern musical master whose virtuosity on the flute is equaled only by his limitless ambitions and vision. Linda Bridges is coauthor with John R. Coyne Jr. of Strictly Right: William F. Buckley Jr. and the American Conservative Movement .
