Spanish composer Jesús Guridi Bidaola (born 25 September 1886 in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Álava - died 7 April 1961 in Madrid).

He was a key player in 20th-century Spanish and Basque music. His style fits into the late Romantic idiom, directly inherited from Wagner, and with a strong influence from Basque culture. Among his best-known works are the zarzuela El Caserío, the opera Amaya, the orchestral work Diez Melodias Vascas and his organ works, where the Tríptico del Buen Pastor can be highlighted.

Strongly influenced by Richard Wagner and other late-Romantic musicians, he found inspiration in the roots of Basque folklore in his first scores, and which later give body and soul to his compositions. The variety of genres he cultivated is very wide, ranging from symphonic music to film music, operas and operettas, chamber music, choral music, songs and music for children.
Despite his intense activity as an organist, choir director and teacher, Guridi was largely devoted to composition.
