占士.高威-良朋樂聚音樂會若你喜歡長笛, 相信也會喜歡這個的音樂會! 其中的曲目還有我的至愛莫札特的K299長笛與豎琴協奏曲(選段)!占士的長笛演奏, 在十多年前在香港欣賞過, 而在愛丁堡唸書時, 也欣賞過一次他演奏愛爾蘭樂曲.
年多前購買了他一本自傳 "The man with the golden flute", 雖然內容較多描述他的"偉業", 較少提及他的掙扎與心路歷程, 但其中一段講述他年少時學長笛的小故事卻讓我十分共鳴! 哈哈, 大師也有喜歡奏流行曲和不想練Scale的時候!

Book introduction:
Book introduction:
Sir James Galway is one of the top musicians of our time, with a dazzling career that has spanned five decades and many genres of music. Now he celebrates his seventieth birthday with a look back on his incredible career, during which he has traveled around the world many times over and made countless friends, including legends from the worlds of classical and popular music. He reflects on the challenges he faced coming from the poverty of working-class Belfast and making the decision to go solo as a flutist, as well as the triumphs as he made his way to the top of his profession.

Dad wanted me to practice my scales. One time I went up to my room and was playing 'Men of Harlech' in the key of A major, and I was having trouble with a G-sharp. Dad came tearing up the stairs and burst into the bedroom, yelling, 'There, you see! If you'd learned the scale of A major properly, you'd be able to play that.' ...
