Carl Weinrich (July 2, 1904 - May 13, 1991) was an American organist, choral conductor, and teacher. He was particularly known for his recitals and recordings of Bach's organ music and as a leader in the revival of Baroque organ music in the United States during the 1930s. Weinrich was born in Paterson, New Jersey and began studying the organ when he was six years old. In addition to private study with Mark Andrews, Marcel Dupr, and Lynnwood Farnam, he received degrees from New York University in 1927 and the Curtis Institute in 1930. In 1930, he also succeeded Lynnwood Farnam as the organist at the Church of the Holy Communion in New York City.
