| | Music For My Little Friends CD James Galway Discography of CDs
2002 release from the Irish master flautist. While the title and cover art may give the appearance that the disc is geared toward children (and it is), Sir James is much more the sophisticated and passionate musician to provide enough musicality to make this set appealing to much older listeners as well. While some titles may be found on other youth oriented classical discs, Galway introduces titles that make this set quite distinctive, with the inclusion of soundtrack composer Nino Rota's "Five Pieces" (which shines brilliantly) and Phil Coulter's "Lament For The Wild Geese". The disc has something for all ages from one of the world's leading instrumentalist legends.
