The American pop star and flutist is coming to Belfast to perform at Belsonic this summer
Sir James Galway, nicknamed ‘The Man with the Golden Flute’, performed a duet of Flight Of The Bumblebee with the pop star at one of the most popular fashion events of the year in New York City.
Sir James said he hopes the performance will inspire other young artists to cross traditional boundaries of music genres. “Over the last few weeks, my wife and I have been in New York visiting friends, family and students so I was thrilled that Lizzo’s team reached out to invite me to join her on stage to perform at this year’s Met Gala.“Educating and inspiring young musicians has become a great passion of mine. Therefore, I hope my duet with Lizzo will inspire young artists, showing them that it is possible to cross the boundaries and bring music genres together in extraordinary ways.
Sir James first became aware of his chart-topping fan when Lizzo talked about her love of his music in an interview with David Letterman in 2020.
