- Bradley_Joseph abstract "Bradley Joseph (born 1965) is an American composer, arranger, and producer of contemporary instrumental music. His compositions include works for orchestra, quartet, and solo piano, while his musical style ranges from "quietly pensive mood music to a rich orchestration of classical depth and breadth".Active since 1983, Joseph has performed in front of more than a half million people around the world. He played various instruments in rock bands throughout the Midwest until 1989 when Greek composer Yanni hired him for his core band after hearing a tape of his original compositions. He was a featured concert keyboardist with Yanni through six major tours, most recently in 2003 for the 60-city Ethnicity tour. He appears in the multi-platinum album and concert film, Yanni Live at the Acropolis. Joseph also spent four years as musical director and lead keyboardist for Sheena Easton, including a 1995 performance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.Joseph is the founder of the Robbins Island Music label. His solo career began when he independently released Hear the Masses, featuring many of his Yanni bandmates. This debut was followed by Rapture, an instrumental album recorded with a 50-piece orchestra in which Joseph wrote and conducted all of the scores. It was released on the Narada label and reached ZMR Airwaves Top 30. A number of subsequent recordings including Christmas Around the World and One Deep Breath also held positions on ZMR's Top 100 radio chart, with the most recent being Paint the Sky which debuted at #15 in April 2013. Paint the Sky was nominated for Best Neo-Classical Album in the 10th annual ZMR Music Awards. He has produced numerous CDs/DVDs and piano books. His music is included in multiple various-artist compilation albums including the 2008 release of The Weather Channel Presents: Smooth Jazz II.".

- Bradley_Joseph description ""Even cuts that start quiet, such as 'Healing the Hollow Man' or 'Blue Rock Road' ebb and flow between quiet moments and crescendos."".
- Bradley_Joseph description ""Lush strings and gorgeous new age synths kick off "Secrets of the Sun" with the piano melody here brimming with a blend of the ethereal and the romantic with a dash of wistfulness besides." Parsons states this is much calmer and more graceful with a piano melody and keyboard enhancements.".
- Bradley_Joseph description ""Strings swell on 'The Passage', engulfing the listener in an ocean of sound".".
- Bradley_Joseph description "A solo piano composition from The Journey Continues in which Joseph "uses a chord progression that translates into a strolling rhythm".".
- Bradley_Joseph description "An arrangement "structured so that the trumpet can lead a line out ... signaling an introspective sort of mood."".
- Bradley_Joseph description "Bill Binkelman of Wind and Wire describes this song as "an uptempo, joyous lead piano melody accented by bouncy rhythms played on kit drums, thumping bass, and tambourine plus superlative orchestral strings".".
- Bradley_Joseph description "Binkelman opines that "In Dreams Awake" bears a strong contemporary classical influence and that some people might even hear strains of Philip Glass’ music. Parsons characterizes it as "a concept piece that begins with an intense and intriguing theme for cello or viola and strings. Building as it evolves, it never takes a breath until near the end of the theme.".
- Bradley_Joseph description "From One Deep Breath, "Dance of Life" was inspired by Antonín Dvořák's opera, "Rusalka". "It is a bit more straightforward in its piano presentation...".".
- Bradley_Joseph description "From Solo Journey, this song "...starts out with a bittersweet melody, and then builds in intensity and complexity with cello, winds, and ethereal sounds intertwining around the piano. Then it breaks off, and the opening melody returns".".
