Carlos Pedrell (16 October 1878 – 9 March 1941) was a Uruguayan composer, guitarist and educator.
He then worked in Paris at the Schola Cantorum under Vincent d'Indy.
Much of his career was spent in Argentina, where he taught at the National University of Tucumán and served as an inspector of schools in Buenos Aires.
Pedrell's output includes operas (in particular, La guitarra to a libretto by Xavier de Courville) and ballets, and he is particularly remembered for his music for classical guitar.
His best-known works for guitar are Lamento, Página romántica, and Guitarreo, which are dedicated to Andrés Segovia.
