André Marcel Charles Casanova (12 October 1919 – 7 March 2009) was a French composer.
He was an early disciple of René Leibowitz, a teacher and composer who maintained a strict adherence to the dodecaphonic musical theories of Arnold Schoenberg.
Casanova later abandoned most of them in favour of a more classical style of composition.
His published works, composed between 1944 and 1993, include orchestral, chamber and choral music, operas and songs.
