Adjudicator - Joseph Skypala
Joseph says "Since studying at both the Royal Academy and Royal College of Music, I've been fortunate to play in a wide variety of genres and ensembles. I work with orchestras such as the London Philharmonic, Royal Philharmonic, BBC Concert and Bournemouth Symphony and well as Opera orchestras Scottish Opera and Opera North.
The trumpet is a very versatile instrument and has led me to play in West End pits, brass ensembles and trumpet Trios. Baroque music is a passion of mine and regularly play in Baroque groups, performing on the Natural trumpet."
