James Mackie
Lives in Scotland, United Kingdom

I studied music at Salford University, England specialising in composition and arranging studies. I am a trombonist and pianist. Although I like all forms of music, my main interest is in Film, Orchestral, Jazz and writing Musicals. I also write Easy Listening orchestral, and popular song arrangement music under the name Auralis, and have written five CD albums: 'Sound Traveller' Vols 1 & 2 'The Mood I'm In', Piano/Orchestral, 'Easy Classical' Orchestral, 'Destiny' Orchestral - Traditional Scottish Music arrangements, all of which can be bought from CDBaby on the net. I have written more music which I have not had time to set up for publishing, such as my musical: 'Hong Kong Oriental'
I am also a published author of two fiction books, called 'Operation Jackdaw', and 'To Snare A Fox. They are published by: www.xlibris.com/JamesWrightMackie.html My Book Publisher USA. This novel can also be bought on the www.barnesandnoble.com or www.Amazon.com and other websites including normal bricks and mortar book stores. |
