About

The music of John Joubert – born in 1927 in Cape Town, a student at the Royal Academy of Music in London in the 1940s and ’50s, and Birmingham‐based since 1962 – has a strong sense of melody, his beguiling lyricism combining with an acute sensitivity to words to produce songs that are both colourful and evocative. These four song‐cycles pay tribute to the places and poets that inspired them. And his chamber works, drawing on a rich instrumental palette and haunting melodic lines, are memorable and dramatically effective.
