He's been a church music director, composer/arranger, and musical theatre director for 35 years. Julian founded the Manitoba Sacred-Music Choir (later as ReSound!) in 1994, and the Baroque Life Ensemble in 2004. He received medals in Italy and The Netherlands, and has trees planted in his name in Israel for work on Christian-Jewish relations. Julian is sought after as a conductor, arranger, singer, accompanist, and clinician. He studied conducting with Helmuth Rilling, Sir John Elliot Gardiner, and Dr. William Baerg, organ with Lawrence Ritchey, Conrad Grimes, Richard Greig, and Vidas Pinkevicius, and piano with Doris Green, Bertha Klassen, and Dr. David Moroz. He holds music/theology/conducting degrees from the University of Winnipeg and Canadian Mennonite University.

He enjoys movies, friends, reading, board games, knitting, culinary arts, fishing, and golf.
