“The magical power of music has been my source of inspiration for decades. Playing drums brings me happiness every day”. – Robert Jospé
Born in Manhattan, Robert Jospé was inspired by his Belgian parents love of music and began playing the drums at fourteen. He had his first professional performance in France at the age of sixteen. While attending the Cambridge School of Weston in Weston, Massachusetts, Jospé enrolled in the Berklee College of Music summer session and began formal training on drums. Upon graduating from the Cambridge School, Jospé moved to New York City to attend New York University. Over the next twelve years he became an active player in the New York jazz and rock scene as well as co-leader of the fusion band Cosmology. He studied with Tony Williams and Bob Moses and performed with Michael Brecker, Dave Liebman, John Schofield and John Abercrombie.
Jospé released his first CD Inner Rhythm and formed his own group Inner Rhythm in 1990. Inner Rhythm has performed in theaters, concert halls, clubs, and at festivals, private functions and community outreach programs from New York to Honolulu. Since 1992 he has received an annual touring grant from the Virginia Commission for the Arts for his bands, master classes and his educational, interactive, lecture/demonstration The World Beat Workshop. The program, which is presented to thousands of students every year, highlights the history and varied styles of African influenced dance music throughout the Americas.
2023, currently The Robert Jospé Trio and Quartet includes piano/keyboards, guitar and bass.
Jospé continues to perform locally and regionally.
Jospé has been featured in Jazz Times Magazine and in Modern Drummer Magazine, UVAMagazine.org, and The Savvy Musician.
