标题: 2017.10.08 詹姆斯-麦克米伦爵士 作曲家
Sir James MacMillan is a Scottish composer and conductor. He's one of Britain's most successful living classical composers, with his percussion concerto, Veni Veni Emmanuel, receiving more than 600 performances since its premiere in 1992. He draws inspiration from both the spiritual and the secular: many of his works draw on his Roman Catholic faith, while his passion for Celtic football club provided the initial spark for a piano concerto.
James MacMillan grew up in Cumnock, East Ayrshire, traditionally a mining centre. His father was a carpenter, and his grandfather a coal miner. He learned the trumpet and played in brass bands, whilst realising at a very young age that he wanted to make music his life. When he first picked up a recorder at school, and realised that he could change the pitch by putting different fingers over the holes, he says a light went on and he knew that he wanted to write music as well as play it.




詹姆斯-麦克米伦爵士是一位苏格兰作曲家和指挥家。他是英国在世的最成功的古典作曲家之一,他的打击乐协奏曲《Veni Veni Emmanuel》自1992年首演以来,共演出600多场。他从精神和世俗中汲取灵感:他的许多作品都借鉴了他的罗马天主教信仰,而他对凯尔特人足球俱乐部的热情为钢琴协奏曲提供了最初的火花。
詹姆斯-麦克米伦在东艾尔郡的坎诺克长大,那里传统上是一个采矿中心。他的父亲是一名木匠,而他的祖父是一名煤矿工人。他学会了小号,并在铜管乐队中演奏,同时在很小的时候就意识到他想以音乐为生命。当他第一次在学校拿起木笛,并意识到他可以通过把不同的手指放在孔上来改变音高时,他说有一盏灯亮了,他知道他想写音乐,也想演奏音乐。
