José Urfé González (February 6, 1879 – November 14, 1957) was a Cuban clarinetist and composer.

An innovator of the danzón, his 1910 composition "El bombín de Barreto" pioneered the introduction of elements from son cubano into the genre.

In 1902 he was one of the founding members of Enrique Peña's orchestra, where he played second clarinet to José Belén Puig.

His famous number "El bombín de Barreto" (1910) incorporated a sychopated third part derived from the son.
