Bob Faw of NBC News has our report.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BOB FAW<\/strong>: In the sublime realm of the world\u2019s premier flutist, from the rarefied excellence of the concert stage to a hip club on New York\u2019s Lower East Side, in this stunning confluence of technical virtuosity and the dazzling, sometimes aching purity of sound, there is something more.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs-wnet-preprod.digi-producers.pbs.org\/wnet\/religionandethics\/files\/2008\/11\/galway-post01-performance.jpg\" alt=\"galway-post01-performance\" width=\"280\" height=\"210\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-13804\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Sir James Galway hasn\u2019t just sold 30 million CDs and climbed to the top of the musical world because of what he can do. He also got there, he will be the first to tell you, because of what he believes.<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES GALWAY<\/strong>: You have a talent. What do you want to do with it? Do you want to bury it? Or do you want to be average? Or do you want to really think, \u201cEvery day someone\u2019s watching me, and it\u2019s not somebody watching me for the first time. It\u2019s somebody who knows what I can do, and somebody who knows what I should be doing.\u201d Do you want to sort of completely ignore God?<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: That reference to the biblical parable of the talents isn\u2019t the only thing unusual about this artist who plays to packed houses throughout the world&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong> (playing flute and speaking to students in master class): You see, with nice fingering you can get the music to sound absolutely charming.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: &#8230; whose master classes attract only the most gifted and who, wherever he goes, rarely fails to wear a cross. Galway insists it is not a fashion statement.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs-wnet-preprod.digi-producers.pbs.org\/wnet\/religionandethics\/files\/2008\/11\/galway-post04-cross.jpg\" alt=\"galway-post04-cross\" width=\"280\" height=\"210\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-13805\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: It\u2019s a sign of what I believe in, and what &#8212; when I put it on every day I think about the crucifixion. I don\u2019t just put it on. It\u2019s not jewelry. It\u2019s something that reminds me of what I should be doing and how I should be behaving.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: Which helps explain why, before every performance, such as this one with his wife Jeannie, there is prayer.<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong> (praying with wife Jeannie): Heavenly Father, we thank you for this talent that you have given us, and we ask you to let us demonstrate it to the best of our abilities tonight with the orchestra. We ask you to bless our concert and bless our audience. In Jesus\u2019 name. Amen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: Sir James Galway giving thanks not just for the talent he has been given, but also, he makes clear, to the giver of that gift.<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: I ask God to get me in the spirit, let me get into the spirit of the evening and to do the best, and to walk in His ways to make Him proud that I would be doing this. I mean, this is what I believe and what I do.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: Now 68, Galway is a long way from the poor Belfast neighborhood where he grew up and turned his back on his local church because it wasn\u2019t, he says, working class enough. A Protestant, these days he visits churches wherever he\u2019s performing, making sure not to wander into one that is \u201cinformal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs-wnet-preprod.digi-producers.pbs.org\/wnet\/religionandethics\/files\/2008\/11\/galway-post03-sirjames.jpg\" alt=\"galway-post03-sirjames\" width=\"280\" height=\"210\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-13806\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: To this day, I don\u2019t like a happy-clappy bit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: Happy-clappy?<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: Yeah, you know (claps hands).<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: Feel good?<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: Yeah, bring a guitar, play in the band<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: You want a little more traditional, right?<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: Yeah (chuckles.)<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: But make no mistake, this is no hide-bound, strait-laced Puritan. For one thing, as he delightedly tells audiences, there are all those remarkable flutes.<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: (speaking to audience during performance) This one happens to be completely made of gold, keys and all.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: There is also, in addition to all that virtuosity, an irrepressible sense of humor.<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: (speaking to audience during performance). The whole concerto opens up like this (plays flute) for about 10 minutes. So that\u2019s the only reason I bought this flute, and it is for sale.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs-wnet-preprod.digi-producers.pbs.org\/wnet\/religionandethics\/files\/2008\/11\/galway-post07-performance2.jpg\" alt=\"galway-post07-performance2\" width=\"280\" height=\"210\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-13807\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: For Sir James Galway, there\u2019s a time for merriment and a time, even in rehearsal, when the good times are put on hold, and the taskmaster takes over.<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong> (speaking to wife): Jeannie, I\u2019d like to get my rehearsal done here. So if you could talk outside please, if you don\u2019t mind.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: It\u2019s a steely determination tempered by his faith, revealed again when he and his wife talk to a young cancer patient.<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong> (speaking to student): Luke, I am going to do the fingering, and you\u2019re going to do the blowing. OK, so we\u2019re going to play, so hold it with your hand. OK, right. OK, good. Here we go.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: All of it, the tenderness, the showmanship, the toughness &#8212; all part of the same fabric of a life lived, profoundly religious 24\/7.<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: What do we do? We go to church once a week. That\u2019s about it. I mean, we should be really on the ball, doing it all the time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: So there should be no surprise when, in most concerts, before Galway plays \u201cDanny Boy\u201d he urges listeners to do something different.<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong> (speaking to audience): To me, it is like a prayer, the music. So if you feel like praying, go ahead feel free to pray along. You know what happens if you don\u2019t pray? Nothing. So don\u2019t take the chance. And I think you\u2019ve got plenty to pray for.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs-wnet-preprod.digi-producers.pbs.org\/wnet\/religionandethics\/files\/2008\/11\/galway-post05-wife.jpg\" alt=\"galway-post05-wife\" width=\"280\" height=\"210\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-13808\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: Praying, then, as he and his wife will do when the concert ends.<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: We always thank God after a concert. Maybe it\u2019s the next day, because you get caught up in everything, you know. But it\u2019s always something I\u2019m very grateful that happened.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: And you thank?<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: Yeah, the Lord.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: So the next time you hear this pied piper, remember there is more here than just music or talent.<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: I think personally that I play better now than I did before.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: Because?<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: Well, because of my beliefs, and because of the way that I center things and what I do.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: And if how he plays brings listeners happiness, even joy, James Galway will tell you there\u2019s a reason for that.<\/p>\n<p>(to Galway): Is the source of that the music? Or do you think it\u2019s God?<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: I don\u2019t know. I don\u2019t know. I would think it\u2019s because of my connection with a higher power that the people feel this, and I think that\u2019s what the attraction is.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: A connection with something greater in a life that has been a parable, indeed.<\/p>\n<p>Sir <strong>JAMES<\/strong>: So I know that whatever we do, we are blessed anyway. I mean, look at me, this little guy from the working class of Belfast ending up like this. It\u2019s quite a story.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAW<\/strong>: Sir James Galway, in perfect harmony with his music, and within.
