Joaquín Turina (December 9, 1882 Seville – January 14, 1949 Madrid) was a Spanish composer of classical music. He was born in Seville and studied there and in Madrid. He lived in Paris from 1905 to 1914 where he took composition lessons from Vincent d'Indy at his Schola Cantorum, and studied the piano under Moritz Moszkowski. Like his fellow countryman and friend Manuel de Falla, he also got to know the impressionist composers Maurice Ravel and Claude Debussy while there.
