Frederick Adolphus Godfrey, better known as Fred Godfrey, (1837, London – August 28, 1882, London) was an English bandmaster and music arranger. He was the son of bandmaster Charles Godfrey, the brother of bandmaster Daniel Godfrey, and the uncle of bandmaster Daniel Eyers Godfrey. He was trained as a musician at the Royal Academy of Music. In 1863 he succeeded his father as bandmaster of the Coldstream Guards; a post he held until his retirement in 1880. He is best remembered for his work as a music arranger, and some of his arrangements have remained in use. Particularly well known is his Reminiscences which arranged music by Daniel Auber and Giuseppe Verdi among other composers.
