Caradog Roberts (30 October 1878 — 3 March 1935) was a Welsh composer, organist and choirmaster.^[1]

Roberts was born in Rhosllannerchrugog to John and Margaret Roberts. He showed musical talent since his childhood, winning several prizes at Welsh festivals (eisteddfodau) in which he participated.^[2]

He studied piano and organ, becoming organist of Mynydd Seion Congregational church, Ponciau from 1894 until 1903. In the next year he took the same position at Bethlehem Congregational church, Rhosllanerchrugog, a post he retained until his death. He took the degrees of B.Mus. (1906) and D.Mus. (1911), both at Oxford University.^[3] From 1914 to 1920, he was Director of Music at Bangor University.^[2]

Roberts was one of the editors of Y Caniedydd Cynulleidfaol Newydd^[4] (1921), the hymnal of the Welsh Independent Church, as well as Caniedydd Newydd yr Ysgol Sul (1930), the Sunday School hymnal of that same church.

Roberts was a prolific composer and arranger of hymn tunes, several of which were incorporated into Welsh hymnaries. Among the most well-known are Rachie and In Memoriam, a tribute to Welsh composer Harry Evans.

He died in Wrexham, Denbighshire, on 3 March 1935, and is buried in Rhosllannerchrugog cemetery.^[3]
