Feliks Nowowiejski (7 February 1877 – 18 January 1946) was a Polish composer, conductor, concert organist, and music teacher. He studied at the Stern Conservatory in Berlin, and also attended master classes under Max Bruch. At the end of WWI, he returned to the now-Polish city of Poznań and became a docent at the Ignacy Jan Paderewski Music Academy. After WW II, Nowowiejski was seen increasingly as a Pole due to his pro-Polish views and Polish themes in so many of his works. His best-known compositions include the oratorio Quo vadis, five symphonies, nine organ symphonies and five organ concertos.
