Performance NotesWatch inspirational performances by outstanding young performers from the Royal College of Music whilst enjoying a hot drink and a pastry.

Joe Parks first became fascinated by percussion at the age of six through listening to Latin-American jazz, and started learning ethnic percussion and kit when he was eight. Since then he has studied at the Purcell School for Young Musicians and the Royal College of Music.

Joe was selected to go to Malta in 2015, where he did outreach work and had compositions played before the Maltese President at the Manoel Theatre in Valletta. In 2016, he made it through to the percussion final of the BBC Young Musician competition.

He has played with the English National Ballet, and has sung with English National Opera and Garsington Opera as part of the Trinity Boy’s Choir. In addition to percussion, Joe also studies jazz vibraphone, piano and composition.
