Annie Lennox has listed the version of Debussy’s ‘Syrinx’ as recorded by Irish flautist James Galway as one of the eight tracks she would take to a desert island.

The singer was talking about her choice on the BBC Radio 4 programme Desert Island Discs last Sunday.
Apart from Galway, her other selections included The Beatles, Aretha Franklin, Glen Campbell, Otis Redding and Blue Nile.
