Sándor Veress (born February 1, 1907 in Kolozsvár, died March 4, 1992 in Bern) was a Hungarian composer and a lynchpin figure in Hungarian musical culture between the generations of Béla Bartók and György Ligeti. He studied composition with Zoltán Kodály, carried out ethno-musicological fieldwork of the Csángó-Magyars in Romanian Moldavia, and worked as Bartók's assistant at the Hungarian Academy of Science in Budapest. He would go on to teach the likes of György Kurtág, Ligeti, and Heinz Hollig
