Joachim Horsley is a composer, pianist, and arranger. His 2019 album “Via Havana,” praised by the French publication Le Figaro as “masterful,” features piano-driven re-imaginings of great Classical works using Afro-Caribbean Rhythms. His related YouTube videos have garnered over 3 million views.

Recently he created the original scores for the ABC TV Series “Baker and the Beauty,” Disney Channel’s “Big City Greens,” and Warner Brothers feature film “Batman: Soul of the Dragon.” Other projects include arranging for Michael Bublé and John Legend, as well as orchestrating Ben Folds’ Piano Concerto.
