James Cooksey Culwick (28 April 1845 – 5 October 1907) was an English musician who is most well known for being organist of the Chapel Royal and founding the Orpheus Choir, both in Dublin, Ireland.

A 1907 Irish Times obituary states that he enjoyed a "high reputation" as a teacher already at an early stage in his career.

[1][3] With Sir Robert Prescott Stewart, he helped establish a branch of the Incorporated Society of Musicians in Dublin.

The memorial consists of a bronze portrait medallion with marble frame, designed by Oliver Sheppard and Sir Thomas Drew respectively.

This tablet is erected in affectionate remembrance by members and supporters of the Orpheus Choral Society, of which he was the founder and conductor, 1896–1907.
