Philippe Gaubert (5 July 1879 – 8 July 1941) was a French musician who was a distinguished flautist, a respected conductor, and a composer. He was one of the most prominent French musicians between the two World Wars. After a prominent career as a flautist with the Paris Opéra, in 1919 Gaubert became professor of flute in the Conservatoire de Paris, principal conductor of the Paris Opéra, as well as principal conductor of the Orchestre de la Société des Concerts du Conservatoire. Gaubert's compositions are not especially innovative, but his work benefited from the examples of Franck, Ravel, and Debussy.
