William Mason (January 24, 1829 – July 14, 1908) was an American composer and pianist and a member of a musical family. His younger brother, Henry Mason, was a co-founder of the piano manufacturers Mason & Hamlin. William was the first American piano student of Franz Liszt and Ignaz Moscheles, remembered above all for his Chopinesque compositions for piano. The American composer Edward MacDowell (1860-1908) dedicated his second piano sonata, Op. 50 Sonata Eroica (1895), to him.
