“Joseph Diamond was not the typical New Yorker. This key whiz mixed Latin jazz and Salsa in a blessed and ingenious way…”
Hans B Huelsmann, Smooth Jazz, Germany
January, 2009
“Keen sense of melody and composition . . .” Billboard Magazine
“I love Latin inspired music of all manner and variety….a sense of deep emotion comes through in Joseph’s music, whether it is the up tempo Latin percussive-laced pieces or the more reflective and poignant interpretation[s]….Definitely recommended.”
John Sutton, Host of The Jazz Excursion
Basileus Music is committed to sharing the music and carrying on the spirit of this special atypical New Yorker. In Joseph’s memory we support an annual college scholarship at Liberty High School, Liberty, NY for aspiring musicians who also contribute to their communities. Basileus Music also supports various local musical groups and music education, reflecting causes Joseph believed in and lived every day of his life: encouraging musicians and helping everyone with simple, unexpected acts of kindness. Proceeds from the sale of Joseph’s CDs support these efforts.
