Federico Ruiz Hurtado (born February 8, 1948) is a Venezuelan composer, arranger, and arts administrator. He has composed in diverse genres including symphonic, chamber, and electroacoustic music.

Ruiz was born in Caracas, Venezuela. He was a student at the José Ángel Lamas School of Music [es], where he studied composition with Primo Casale, Vicente Emilio Sojo and Evencio Castellanos; as well as contemporary compositional techniques with Giannis Ioannidis (composer) [de] and Eduardo Kusnir. Ruiz graduated in 1974.[1][2]

In 1976, Ruiz founded the Quinteto Cantaclaro, which consisted of members Carola Marcano, Inés Feo La Cruz, Efraín Arteaga, Gonzalo Peña, and Felipe Izcaray.[3] His music for film has earned wide popularity in Venezuela[4] and many of his works are part of the repertoire of ensembles in El Sistema.[5][6][7]

Pianist Clara Rodríguez has championed and recorded Ruiz's music.[8][9]
