Madni, a native of India that migrated to the UK, has made a musical
discovery that had quite an impact on him. Upon his arrival, after
hearing the sound of classical music he was compelled to learn more
about it, and in the process of learning guitar, began writing music,
leading to his composing activities today. Along with the pieces for
string quartet performed on his critically-acclaimed debut CD Mystic Thoughts,
he has even more works, including a set of solo violin caprices and a
violin concerto among other orchestral works. Although he also still
has a day career as an integrated circuit design engineer, one would
hope that he’ll be able to make a strong enough mark as a composer that
this will replace that as his day job.- Chris MacGovern/The Glass
