“The consummate professional. Always delivers on time. Always knows exactly what to do. What more could you ask for? I wish I’d met Joseph 20 years ago.”

Craig Snelling - Composer, Writer, Director.

"I have worked with Joseph on the development of a major project, rooted in musical heritage, seeking a new approach to interpretation and engagement. Joseph has a vast musical knowledge, both theoretical and practical, across genres, which he draws on to create really exciting and innovative programmes of work. He is highly skilled at communicating with a wide range of stakeholders, from senior leaders to volunteers. I have been hugely impressed by his considered and consultative approach, and ability to engage with both musical professionals and amateurs. I have complete confidence in his abilities to represent and advocate for our project at all levels. I would not hesitate to recommend Joseph as a creative and facilitative consultant who professionally delivers meaningful results of the highest quality."

Crystal Johnson - Project Director

"Translating someone's ideas into a reality, musically, is not always an easy task. Joseph is really very good at articulating what the client wants in a way that makes sense to me, which is especially impressive as I don't really have a lot of technical music language in my repertoire and tend to go much more on feel and instinct."

Emily Jean - Vocalist, Artist.

"Nothing fazes Joe in the studio. If we come up against any creative blocks or problems during the process of writing and recording Joe will ask for 10 minutes to think about it and always finds a solution. He is genuinely one of the nicest, most encouraging and easiest guys I have ever had the pleasure to create and record with. Joseph will tease creative moments out of you during recording sessions that you hadn’t realised you were capable of and will guide you through the whole process with the same uplifting energy and professionalism he brings to everything."

Marc Brandrick - Songwriter, Artist.

“Having worked with Joseph on two of our Christmas productions to date, I know him to be a fantastic part of any creative project. He brings a wealth of deep musical knowledge and skill, matched by a creative ambition that helps to elevate any project he is involved in to a new level of quality and invention. On top of this, he is an excellent collaborator, supporting and positively challenging those around him to create their best, most adventurous work. I would thoroughly recommend him for any creative project.”

Will Bourdillon - Producer, Programmes Manager
