Singer, actor and educator Ustadz Jefri Al Buchori emerged from a life of sin and excess to become a leading voice in contemporary Islamic culture. His career was marked by spiritually focused albums that conveyed messages of praise and piety through lush, melodically stunning ballads. Accompanied by acoustic guitar, delicate piano and swirling strings, his gentle yet emotionally evocative voice spoke of worship and dedication. A clever collaborator, he realised some of his most powerful and moving songs in the form of duets with his wife, Pipik Dian Irawati Popon.
