Heinrich Finck (1444 or 1445 – 9 June 1527) was a German composer. He served as Kapellmeister first for Prince Alexander of Lithuania, later King of Poland, before leaving Poland in 1510. He worked in Stuttgart before becoming a member (and months before his death, the Kapellmeister) of the Hofkapell.
He was the great-uncle of the music theorist and composer Hermann Finck (1527–1558).
