Python noisereduce package ImportError: cannot import name 'stft' from 'librosa'

Question

Trying to import noisereduce

import noisereduce as nr

produces the following error, seemingly related to librosa:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "someFile.py", line 4, in <module>
    import noisereduce as nr
  File ".local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/noisereduce/__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
    from noisereduce.noisereduce import reduce_noise

    from librosa import stft, istft
ImportError: cannot import name 'stft' from 'librosa' (.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/librosa/__init__.py)

I have installed packages from

pip install -r requirements.txt

I've also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the noisereduce package, but the error persists. Any suggestions?
