About Me

Joseph began playing piano at the age of 9, and saxophone at 14. Over the years, he developed his skills further by studying at the New England Conservatory Youth Program throughout his high school education, and is currently enrolled in Temple University studying Jazz Composition. He gained performance experience in the Boston area by playing at such venues as Restaurant Laura, Morrell's BBQ, Darryl's Corner Bar & Kitchen, Thunder Road, and Wally's Cafe and with acts such as Hot Brown, Freedom Cadre, and Makadi. Though Joseph can teach many different genres of music, his musical personal favorites are jazz, R&B, pop, songwriting, and contemporary improvisation which had great influence on his style of playing. Joseph loves music because it's his main outlet for creative expression and loves teaching music because he wants to share his experience and learnings passed down from his mentors. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned professional, Joseph can help you expand and enhance your playing. Joseph is excited to learn how he can help you reach your musical goals.
