Gheorghe Ciobanu (February 4, 1909 — June 29, 1995)[1] was a Romanian ethnomusicologist and Byzantine specialist.[1] He published several important papers on early Romanian psalm music and Romanian folklore.[1] The musicologist Viorel Cosma, wrote that Ciobanu's "studies of Romanian folklore did much to solve questions about popular modes and methods of versification, and contributed greatly to the history of folk collections and popular music."[1] He was awarded the Romanian Composers' Union prize five times (1969, 1974, 1977, 1979, 1987), and was twice awarded the prize of the Romanian Academy (1957, 1978).[1]
