"Classical Music for the People" is the theme of symphonic composer Paul Joseph, who has taken enthusiastic audiences on an inspiring musical journey through the passionate world of his classically-oriented compositions in orchestral, choral and ballet performances, as well as all-original solo piano concerts. His compositions have been performed by many orchestras locally as well as nationally including the Queens Symphony Orchestra led by world reknown maestro Arthur Fagen who states, “Paul Joseph is certainly a composer whose music deserves to be heard. His music has a beautiful, deep felt lyricism which has an immediate emotional impact upon its listeners.” Paul Joseph has enjoyed extensive media coverage including radio airplay (including WNYC), television interviews (including NBC’s Bismarck affiliate), and numerous feature articles. His full-scale ballet “The King of the Mask” has been choreographed and performed by Ballet Long Island and Dance Visions, and his patriotic song “The Land of the Human Dream” was premiered Veterans Day 2001 by the award-winning Freeport Select Chorale. His “Cry of a Butterfly” (arranged for guitar) has also been recorded by one of Italy’s finest virtuosos, the national competition winner Fabrizio Ferraro. Most recently, Paul Joseph has perfomed extensively throughout the Long Island/New York City Region as leader of his jazz quartet.
