George Gewinner (May 27, 1814 – January 18, 1894) was a German-born American composer and military bandmaster during the American Civil War. Gewinner was born, raised and educated in Bayreuth, Bavaria, emigrating to the United States in 1848 where he volunteered in the Union Army three different times during the Civil War, serving as chief musician and band leader for the 99th New York Infantry Regiment, the 4th Massachusetts Cavalry and the 6th Infantry Regiment. It was Gewinner's 4th Massachusetts Cavalry band that played the surrender of Robert E. Lee to Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Courthouse on April 9, 1865, ending the Civil War.
