William Faulkes (1863-1933) was an English organist and composer who was active in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was born in Liverpool, England. His first appointment as church organist was at St John the Baptist Tuebrook, from 1881 to 1886. He then returned to St Margaret’s Anfield as organist in 1886, where he remained in post until his death.

Faulkes published over 500 organ works, for which he is best known, but also composed choral music, songs, and chamber and orchestral works.
