Crystal Dawn Derksen (April 20, 1981 – May 15, 2026) was a Canadian Cree two-spirit cellist and composer from Northern Alberta. Nominated for a Juno Award, Derksen was known for her unique musical sound which blends classical music with traditional Indigenous music. Her music is often described as "electronic cello" or classical traditional fusion.
