Johan Duijck (°1954) is active as a choir director, pianist, teacher and composer, principally throughout Great-Britain (Academy of Saint Martin in the Fields), Flanders (Flemish Radio Choir) and Spain. He is the Director of the Academy for choir-conducting at the “Euskalleriko Abesbatzen Elkartea’ – Barcelona.

He was trained by Peter Cabus (composition), Robert Steyaert (piano) and László Heltay (choir-conducting) 

His classical training and his affinity with language and literature have certainly contributed to the richness of his compositions.
