About This Song
About "Send in the Clowns (From "A Little Night Music")" by James Galway
Send in the Clowns' becomes a solo flute wandering a empty circus tent. Galway plays it straightโno wink, no bathosโso the melancholy lands quietly. The calm is almost unbearable: a graceful admission of foolishness, delivered with the poise of someone who has stopped pretending.
