Christian Ferras (1933–1982) a fost un violonist francez ale cărui interpretări se distingeau prin profunzime emoțională și virtuozitate tehnică. A fost una dintre personalitățile marcante ale interpretării violonistice din a doua jumătate a secolului XX și a colaborat cu orchestre și dirijori de frunte ai epocii sale.
