Giuseppe Verdi (Roncole, karibu na Busseto, Parma 9 au 10 Oktoba 1813 - [Milano] 27 Januari 1901) alikuwa mtunzi wa opera kutoka nchini Italia. Yaaminika kwamba Verdi na Richard Wagner walikuwa watunzi wakubwa kabisa wa muziki wa opera kwa kipindi cha karne ya 19, ingawaje walikuwa wakiishi nchi tofauti.
