Joshua Jones

Baritone

Joshua graduated from RWCMD in 2020 with an MMus Voice.

Josh studied Vocal Studies at RWCMD, for both undergraduate and master's degrees.

Having initially dreamed of becoming a carpenter, he came to RWCMD and realised not only that he wanted to perform, but through the opportunities as part of his training at the College, that he wanted to work within the community – music educational charities and music in health.

He uses music to engage communities and works with Forget Me Not Chorus, as well as the College’s own Good Vibration’s Chorus.

'Due to the opportunities, I had at the Royal Welsh College, outreach and community music have become a massive part of who I am.

This has led me to engage with several music educational and health charities, working with dementia and cancer patients for example. I use music, especially singing, to engage communities and bring out people's personalities. Seeing the individual journeys participants go on is rewarding to a level I can't describe. It's addictive to see all the smiles and the joy that’s created just from using singing.

These experiences ultimately shaped my career. I never imagined it would be what it is today – it doesn’t feel like work. And that’s solely due to the opportunities I had during my time at the College.

From the moment I stepped into the building I was encouraged to explore beyond my comfort zone. I was never told ‘no, you can't do it’. It was always, 'okay, how can we help you do this’.'
