Alexander Moiseyevich Veprik, also Weprik, (Russian: Александр Моисеевич Веприк, Ukrainian: Олександр Мойсейович Веприк, Oleksandr Mojsejovyč Vepryk; 23 June 1899 – 13 October 1958) was a Russian-(Ukrainian) Soviet composer and music educator.

In 1927 during a business trip in Austria, Germany and France, he met Arnold Schoenberg, Paul Hindemith, Maurice Ravel and Arthur Honegger.

His music became well known in Europe and the United States during this time: nearly his entire oeuvre was performed by the Berlin Radio Symphony (1928–1929).

[2] In March 1933 Arturo Toscanini conducted Veprik's Dances and Songs of the Ghetto at Carnegie Hall in New York.

In September 1954 he returned sick and weary to Moscow, to a world in which Jewish culture had no place.
