Rodolphe Kreutzer (15 November 1766[1] – 6 January 1831) was a French violinist, teacher, conductor, and composer.


He was well known for his style of bowing, his splendid tone, and the clearness of his execution. His compositions include nineteen violin concertos and forty operas. His best-known works, however, are the 42 études ou caprices (42 études or capricci, 1796) which are fundamental pedagogic studies.
