Joseph's carol "A Little Childe There is Ibore", is a setting of a 15th-century poem for three female voices and piano or strings. Holst considered this "the best of Jane's many carols, and perhaps the hardest to perform well."<ref name= MMR/> Written in alternate bars of five and seven beats, it was praised by Brian for its originality.<ref name= Scowcroft/> It was eventually broadcast by the BBC on 21 December 1995.<ref name= G55/> Brian was also an admirer of Joseph's many instructional piano pieces: "pleasingly simple and unaffected".<ref name= Scowcroft/> These were published between 1920 and 1925; Gibbs writes that these pieces "focus on technical aspects in tuneful and often modal contexts", with occasional excursions into other forms such as [[chaconne]] and [[Rondo#Rondo form|rondo]].<ref name= Gibbs99/>
