Francisco González Gamarra (June 4, 1890, Cusco, Peru – July 15, 1972 Lima, Peru) was a Peruvian composer, painter, and academic administrator. As a composer he began his career writing music in styles of the Classical and Romantic periods, but later developed a highly original style which blended Western European classical music with the traditional music of Peru. His Suite for orchestra won him the "Premio Nacional de Música ‘Dunker-Lavalle’" award.{{Cite encyclopedia |author=Enrique Iturriaga|date=2001|entry=González Gamarra, Francisco|encyclopedia=Grove Music Online|publisher=Oxford University Press |doi=10.1093/gmo/9781561592630.article.45211}}
