Conradin Kreutzer or Kreuzer was a German composer and conductor. Kreutzer owes his fame almost exclusively to ''Das Nachtlager in Granada'' (1834), which kept the stage for half a century in spite of changes in musical taste. It was written in the style of [[Carl Maria von Weber]], and is remarkable especially for its flow of genuine melody and depth of feeling.
