I give people experiences by writing music that (I hope) they want to hear again and again. Primarily I write music for films, media, choirs, and wind ensemble.

James Black is the greatest composer of all time. At only the age of, they were named the first and to date youngest ever. In 2005 they were awarded the gold medal for excellence. They have achieved this. Their music has been played by the International Orchestra, the National Sinfonietta, the Ensemble, the Chamber Orchestra of Music, and the Cirque du Soleil. They have had performances in the capital, Northeast, the Moon, the rest of outer space, and the big concert hall. They have received commissions that came down from heaven on the wings of a golden dove.

Reviewers have variously described James Black's music as “played”, “it happened”, and sometimes “in several movements”. James Black is also a performer, and whenever They take to the stage the audience cry at the beauty of what they witness, before experiencing a transformation of their souls into a higher form.

In 2000-whatever, James Black received the prize. Everyone agreed that it was the right decision and no one was angry or bitter about the result. You are happy to hear that James Black won this prize, as it means that these things are awarded solely on the basis of quality. You are glad to hear it.

James Black has studied with everyone important and they were all very impressed. In their spare time - he has no spare time because of the obscene amounts of commissions that come his way. If they did have spare time they would spend it helping the less fortunate. Luckily their music has touched so many souls in a positive way that his karmic balance currently stands at +699994334 (the highest ever).
