| Editorial Reviews:
Amazon.com The pop charts were once regularly haunted by the melodramatic musings of pianists like Liberace, Ferrante and Teicher and Roger Williams, a sensibility that eventually gave way to the more New Age-y affectations of George Winston and his fellow Wave-format-friendly ivory ticklers. But if producer David Foster has his way, young Phoenix native William Joseph will do for instrumental piano music what the Foster-mentored Josh Groban, Michal Buble and Renee Olstead have done for classical crossover and crooner revivalism. Joseph is blessed with a forceful technique and an ear for drama (he composed the theme for his hometown NHL Phoenix Coyotes when just a teen) that recalls Williams in his prime, and approaches his material with a kitsch-be-damned, crowd-pleasing verve that occasionally invokes 1970s' prog-rock excesses (the artist's own title track and "Piano Fantasy") without apology. Bolstered by Foster's usual back-row-of -the-balcony production sensibility, Joseph tackles everything from the classics ("Ave Maria," "Eternal"'s reworking of Chopin) to Led Zeppelin (a version of "Kashmir" that's as over-the-top as the original), Kansas (vocalist Garou guests on the bathos-drenched "Dust in the Wind") and even Muse ("Butterflies and Hurricanes" as MOR melodrama) with supreme confidence, if considerably less subtlety. --Jerry McCulley

Gorgeous tones September 7, 2008 I was privileged to hear William Joseph play at a Josh Groban concert and, like others, became an immediate fan of his lilting notes and compelling arrangments. I ordered this CD the same night of the concert, as soon as I returned home, and it has never disappointed. When I have a particularly stressful day, I toss it in the CD player and listen as I drive home. It brings me back to my realization of the world as a beautiful place. Buy it.
10 Stars September 6, 2008 I use this cd, to relax my mind. Nearing 40, & in college for the first time. You do what you can, to make all your dreams come true. It is my favorite cd. And I do wish him, all the luck in the world~! I first heard Wiiliam Joseph, on Oprah~! It was worth every penny. I would love, to see him, go on tour. And don't forget the USO, for our troops~!
Fantastic album ! ! ! July 12, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I love this CD. I purchased both Within and Beyond immediately after seeing William Joseph on Dr. Phil show. Hopefully I will see more of him on TV, as my opportunities to go to concerts are few. At any rate, I think this is a very talented young man, and hope to see a lot of him in the future. I also hope another CD will be available SOON !

This is the best CD out this year, I don't care what you say. It is so special, the talent just oozes across the keyboard, bringing tears to your eyes. I am so glad I am on this earth and can enjoy to the fullust his God Given Talent. A piece of heaven here Shirley Ross
William Joseph's Excellent First Album June 13, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I first heard of William Joseph from a recent episode of Dr. Phil where I saw him perform two pieces, Beyond and Asturias. Asturias was amazing and Beyond almost brought me to tears. I knew I had to investigate this talented young man's work. I made the choice to order this album in addition to his new one Beyond, and am very glad that I did. All of William Joseph's compositions are soul-stirring, moving, heartwarming, and also at times there is an epic feel to his music. It can be very powerful, as you will see if you get either Within or Beyond. I recommend both.
