Guy Touvron (15 February 1950 – 9 March 2024) was a French classical trumpet player and music teacher. He was an accomplished soloist, having played with some of Europe's leading orchestras. He premiered several prominent trumpet concertos written for him. Touvron gave over 3,500 concerts, made over 120 recordings, and won several prizes.

Touvron also taught trumpet and regularly conducted master classes around the world. He has been called "one of the leading pedagogues of trumpet technique and interpretation France has ever produced."[1] He wrote a biography on his mentor Maurice André, which was published in 2003.

In 2020, Touvron was convicted of having sexually assaulted a young woman in 2017. He was given a six-month suspended prison sentence.[2][3]
