Hear the Masses is the debut album by Bradley Joseph, (see 1994 in music), a self-produced and self-published release consisting of 10 original instrumental compositions ranging from upbeat piano to orchestral ballads.
It was recorded between world tours with Yanni and Sheena Easton, and Joseph invited most of the Yanni band to contribute. They include Charlie Adams (drums, percussion); Ric Fierabracci (fretless bass); Jeanette Clinger (vocals), and Grammy-winning violinist Charlie Bisharat. Other guest artists include Larry Preston (guitar), and Terry Brau — featured on numerous Bradley Joseph recordings — playing trumpet, saxophone, and fluegelhorn. "It's Bisharat's virtuostic violin that immediately attracts the listener's attention in the opening of 'Rose Colored Glasses' 
Listen ...an upbeat song that has driving, forward momentum", states Music Outfitters. The "Gift" Listen begins as a slow, dour march with vocal expressions by Joseph and Jeanette Clinger, but the tune quickly develops into a "buoyant" piano solo by Joseph. "Friday's Child" Listen is a "dynamic blend of piano and sax".
