Josif Marinkovic (Serbian Cyrillic: ????? ??????????; Vranjevo, near Novi Becej, 15 September 1851 – Belgrade, 13 May 1931) was a Serbian composer and choral director.
Like his younger contemporary Stevan St.
Mokranjac, he was devoted to mainly vocal genres—lied and choral.
Marinkovic was a romanticist with a pronounced affinity for melodic expression.
He invested exceptional attention to the text declamation, which represented a rather novel quality in Serbian music at the time.
