I'm not very fond of his vibrato, too choppy and at the same pace all the time, but I like his tone and articulation...and ESPECIALLY his flute!! also, his buzzing when he goes in the lower register, I learned how to do that by listening to him a lot.
@rexicano: you made me smile, indeed that's the one thing that keeps me from enjoying wholly Galway's music. He's got such an amazing tone that takes your breath away... but then that goaty vibrato kicks in and well, dang it, it's too much. C'mon Jimmy, it's too much!
As usual, Sir James Galway blows my mind. :) I think the quality of video is just fine. YOu still see him and can hear his playing and you can still tell that he's one amazing flute player. :)
@cool4kidz Try using the lower jaw to change octaves. Also, visualize yourself nailing those notes, and increase tummy pressure a bit. (Breathe out of your tummy. If you lift your shoulders, you're not breathing properly. But, you may know this already ...
even under poor quality james galway sounds amazing (;

He manages to get (almost) an Irish flute tone on some of the long tones.

Agree about the length. But this was done at a huge arena so the quality suffers without high-tech tools unfortunately...

For a phone camera, which it looks like, it is pretty good quality :-)

But where is Boccelli? In the audience?

@hadronfly
Boccelli is puking in the back room after hearing the horrible vibrato of Galway.
He said; "I'm blind, but that guy is deaf!"

I agree...and can verify that that probably happened because I'm about to hurl myself from hearing this.

Do you have enough air support? Perhaps you could turn your mouth piece outwards, while giving more air support..:)

@cool4kidz sounds like an embouchure problem relax it and remember more air. Try watching Galways embouchure master class lol.
