Richard Würz (15 February 1885 - 2 February 1965) was a German composer, music critic and theory teacher, born and died in Munich. From 1902 to 1906 he studied piano and composition privately with Max Reger. In 1907 he became music critic of the Münchner Neueste Nachrichten, one of Munich's leading daily newspapers, a post he held for almost four decades until the paper ceased publication in 1945. Alongside his journalism he taught music theory at the Liebling Conservatory in Munich from 1910 to 1916 and at the Trapp Conservatory from 1941 to 1944. His catalogue of works is small and consists mainly of songs for voice and piano, including settings of Hölderlin, together with a number of Turmmusiken (tower music) for small brass ensembles.
