Richard Taruskin (April 2, 1945 - July 1, 2022) was an American musicologist. His analyses combined cultural, historical, political, and sociological perspectives with rigorous source study and sparked debate. He focused on 18th-to-21st-century Russian music but also researched 15th- and 20th-century music, analysis, modernism, musical nationalism, and performance theory. He is best known for the six-volume Oxford History of Western Music.
