Julian Joseph
Julian Joseph grew up amongst an exceptionally strong crop of British jazz musicians, spending an inspirational two years as a teenager attending jazz workshops at the Weekend Arts College in London before taking up a scholarship in 1985 at the Berklee School of Music in Boston, Massachusetts.
There he met the Marsalis brothers and enjoyed an international 'coming of age' as pianist in Branford's quartet, touring the US and Canada in the company of such artists as Wynton Marsalis, Bobby McFerrin and Joe Williams.
Come 1990, degree in hand, he re-entered what had become a thriving jazz scene back in the UK, populated by such as Courtney Pine, Jason Rebello, Cleveland Watkiss, Steve Williamson and Orphy Robinson.
