Boris Berlin (27 May 1907 - 24 March 2001) was Russian-born Canadian pianist, pedagogue, and composer.

He had composed many wonderful pieces including "March of the Goblins" and "Monkeys in the Tree". The Royal Conservatory of Music named Berlin a "Heritage Teacher" in a ceremony on 6 April 1990. In 1992 he was awarded the 125th anniversary of the Confederation of Canada Medal and was made a Member of the "Order of Ontario". In 2000 he became an Officer of the Order of Canada, but died in March 24th 2001 in Toronto before the ceremony honouring him with this title was held.
