Editorial Review:

Album Description:
Sir James Galway, revered as one of the world's greatest flute players, and the two-time Grammy®-nominated Cuban music group, Tiempo Libre, offer an exuberant Afro-Cuban take on music from the Claude Bolling Jazz Suites as well as a number of vibrant new compositions. The album, named after a bustling street in Old Havana honoring the military contributions of an Irish General, marks a new cultural intersection uniting classical, jazz and Cuban music.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - O'Reilly Street Galway and Gomez Tiempo Libre Best of Both Worlds
"This is such a great album! It really combines the best of two amazing worlds. Tiempo Libre's virtuosity and rhythmic charge are irresistible. And, of course, there is a reason why Galway is considered the greatest flute player in the world. His chops are unparalleled. But that sound - absolutely bewitching. Put Galway and and Tiempo Libre together and you get an album that is impossible to stop listening to. There is such joy in all the music-making. This was obviously a labor of love for everyone. Definitely check out the video about Galway and Gomez. It's clear there was a real person bond and affection that spilled over into the music."




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best of Both Worlds Intersect on O'Reilly Street
O'Reilly Street hits the spot by blending appealing, baroque-inspired themes to perfection with hot, Latin jazz rhythms. Sir James Galway, the world-famous flutist, joins Grammy-nominated, Cuban music group Tiempo Libre in a high energy set. Features a fast-paced, exuberant interpretation of selections from the Bolling Suites, plus several new works composed/arranged by Tiempo Libre's Jorge Gomez. At age 69, Galway shows no signs of slowing down -- "the man with the golden flute" is as agile and amazing on this album as on any of his recordings of past decades. And, in temperament, he has found a good match in Tiempo Libre. All in all, O'Reilly Street is a great-sounding CD that only seems to improve the more times one listens. Highly recommended for fans of classical, as well as jazz and Cuban ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful!
I fell in love with the Bolling Suite in the 80's. Rampal's version was wonderful and I wasn't sure if I would enjoy the new "style" of for this suite but I was wrong. The mix of flavor and style along with Sir James' amazing technique and tone takes this music to a completely different place. In addition, the other tracks (not from the Bolling suites) are amazing and great additions the this jazz/classical flute style. If you enjoy jazz and/or classical you will enjoy this music for years to come. If you are a flutist (like I am) you will be searching for the sheet music immediately but it isn't yet out (if it ever will be). While you can get the original arrangements for the Bolling Suites, I'm hopeful they will publish these arrangements as well.
