Reminiscent of Lipatti . . . it takes a truly original musician to show one shadows one has not seen before, even in the most oft-played works . . . the entirety of Long’s performance made us do that very rare combination of things at a concert: feel and think (HINDUSTAN TIMES) |

He has broadcast and recorded widely, and his performances and recordings of lesser-known works alongside more mainstream repertoire bring some delightful surprises to music-lovers. With recitals, lecture-recitals and masterclasses in venues as diverse as the Edinburgh Society of Musicians, St.-Martin's-in-the-Fields in London, the Grand Hall of the Moscow Conservatoire, the Calcutta School of Music and the University of Almeria in Spain, Joseph has experience in catering to the needs of many different types of audience. |
